        Bought some last Christmas for the wife and kid. I thought they'd just be jellybeans, with normal jellybean flavors. You know, just cute packages for the movie tie-in. Nope. There were actual disgusting flavors, as advertised. :laugh:

            Finally delivering on one of Steve's old promises. Steve Jobs - "We made the buttons on the screen look so good you'll want to lick them." :laugh:

            Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

              Does chicken has a taste? I think modern six-weeks-olds has next to zero taste by themselves. They are merely a substrate for various kinds of spices and sauces. The day I retire, I may start my own poultry in the back yard, to rase hens like in the old days when a hen tasted like a hen. Not as "chicke spice mix".

                  Maybe I am too much of a computer guy. A few years ago, they started selling these jelly beans with 1023 different tastes. My immediate reactio was "What about the last one?" Then it dawned upon me: They have ten different taste elements that may or may not be included. Like a 10 bit number. But binary value 0000000000 - none of the taste elements inclued - would be a completely tasteless jelly bean. There is the missing one! They didn't include it, or at least didn't count it, as one of the tastes. I am still curious how much of each element they included. E.g. taste 1111111111, would it have 1/10 of each taste, or would it have a tenfold amount of total taste? I am not that fond of jelly beans, so I never made a try do determine this from taste. My world doesn't break down even I don't know the answer...
