Maybe I need to try re-loading it or something.

The vindaloo is a good idea...I'll try that first.

The Ramones thought it was a great idea(second line in the song).

Also on e on the first songs I ever learned.(upside down lefty to boot.)

The Variants of The Brave and the Bold #93

So this is interesting (or at least I thought so).

I was reading GCD and noticed that it stated that The Brave and the Bold #93 has a variant.

GCD

Quote

Variant edition exists; indicia was originally sent to print as "THE BRAVE & THE BOWL" and appeared in a substantial portion of the print run until the error was caught and the correction made.

I had never heard of this before, so I searched the internet and found absolutely no information about it. And it doesn't appear that either CGC or CBCS notes the variation on the label.

Game on!  

I discovered examples of both variants (see below). It appears that when the error was caught, the plate was rather crudely modified to correct the error (notice the upward shift in the word 'Bold').

Since there are examples of both variants on eBay in fairly ample quantities, I can't make any inference as to the percentage of each variant in the print run.

I fear I have just added a new nightmare for Batman completists.    

If anyone has any additional information, please post it here; I would love to know more about this issue.

 

The Original Indicia Variant

 

The Corrected Indicia Variant

 

And since then, I've found more examples:

 

 

So, if you get a chance, check your copy/copies (if you have one) and post the results here.  I'll do an informal tally of the results.

Thanks for reading!

Foodies Corner - Homemade Yogurt

This is the book that first got me into making my own yogurt.

I soon learned to incorporate a cooler into the recipe to keep the bacteria in the zone.  The bacteria that create yogurt are only active within certain temperature ranges. Proteins are broken down into amino acids, and they are time/temp-dependent. I get by using a calibrated thermometer, and the cooler is used to maintain that temp so the bacteria can do their job. Too hot, you kill the desired bacteria...too low, bad bacteria can take hold and ruin it.

There are a gazillion reasons to make your own,  possibly even a quad-gazillion, or even a mega-quad-gazillion...no one is really sure.

One BIG reason is health concerns.  Read this...

Commercial Yogurt Won’t Do Squat for Your Health

So why am I posting this right here, right now?  Because I'm getting a new toy in a few days.    Stay tuned!

there are 2 things I truly love watching

Comedians talking about comedy (especially if they are telling jokes vs doing stand up) and Musicians talking about other musicans/music

I find both discussions fascinating

I love watching/reading Sammy Hagar complain about Van Halen.  So funny.

Which "The Last Laugh," 2016 or 2018?

I've been watching I'm Dying Up Here and Crashing.  Not documentaries, but they're really good if you like shows about stand-up.

2016

there should be a rule, if you discuss a movie or tv show a video trailer is required*

*does not have to be the trailer to the movie/show

Yeah, I saw it.  It's very good.

I noticed that Season 2 of The History of Comedy is out now.  I'll be watching that when I get a chance.

"Live & Active"  Very important.  

Will I get my toy today? 

Stay tuned to this Ditch Channel.

Oh, and I'm also going to find out if an entire yellow habanero pepper is too hot for a single serving of my chicken/beans/tomato/cheese skillet lunch.

Yes.  Mom spoke it fluently.  I don't remember many phrases.  That one basically just translates to "I don't understand."

I forget...are you Danish?

Yes, but I prefer to speak English with Norwegians and Swedes - although it feels kinda weird :-) Good to know some Vikings did make it beyond Greenland
