The Saturday Picture Show, April 16, 2022

 

This picture was described as "A morning walk in England." A foggy, misty morning indeed!
We've all wondered, and now here it is: this is what sunset looks like when you're flying high above it!

Devotees of the 70s band T Rex know their deep cut "Raw Ramp," part of a song trilogy that also included "There Was A Time" and "Electric Boogie." Whatever connotation they gave the word ramp, it really and truly is a plant, like a spring onion or a leek. Supposed to be very tasty, but then again, they say that about beets.
Just the other day Ginger Zee was on ABC showing hailstones the size of lemons, We've seen them before, but what's new is a hailstone that looks like a jackrabbit or cat. Mother Nature is always coming up with something new, so stay tuned.
This 2,000-year-old Roman shoe, found in an Italian well, shows that wingtips have been around for a long, long time. 
I'll tell you what's always fun to do in Baltimore. Take an out-of-towner or a new-to-towner out to dinner and get a softshell crab sammy.  I/2 the time they will ask if that's a spider on your plate.
Having saturated urban, suburban, and exurban markets with their quasi-authentic Mexican cuisine, Taco Bell is making a move to take on the rural competition.
You may ask me really nicely and everything but I am not climbing these stairs!
The old pizza wheel is out of style, replaced by the new pizza axe. With this behind the counter, I bet they get very few complaints about not having enough toppings.
In the 1950s, families would pile into the Chevy or Ford or Studebaker and go buy everyone a new Hula-Hoop or coonskin cap. A stop at the Tastee-Freez on the way home made it a perfect day!
