Men CAN Multi-Task

I Sit Here Drinking Tea, Typing And Watching GI Joe
     Proof enough.

No!  NO! The film not the doll for boys.  Drinking tea, typing and looking at a doll - that would be creepy.

Too late.  The moment has gone <sob>

What's This?
     Before:  I don't know but it was only 80p.

 After:  very tasty!  Pickled mussels with tomato and peppers.

Marshmallow Fluff
     Go back and read yesterday's blog if you don't know what this is, after chastising yourself severely - severely, mind - for missing the wit, wonder and wisdom all characteristic of BOOJUM!  Okay, the wit and wisdom.  Oh alright, a few puns here and there.  Anyway, the Fluff:

No Beef Gelatin!  Safe for veggies!  Probably glows in the dark!

     This is the classic Fluff.  There's also a Strawberry version but that's just gross and disgusting.
     Whilst on the subject of marshmallow, here's the bag art on a packet I purchased recently:

"Cocktail" presumably means "In garish pink and yellow!

I think the concept artist was on something.  Something illegal, because that jester has only six fingers and looks like he's going to drag your children screaming into the packet, never to be seen again*.
     Or maybe it's just me.

So - Tanks?
     Okay.  I tend to post stuff about the more obscure tanks, or the odd ones, and today I regale you with the M3 Stuart:

Take note.  There will be a quiz later.

In order to prepare you for the main picture.  Ladies and gentlemen, "The Haunted Tank"

Obvious inspiration for "The A-Team" film.

Haunted and flying.  You didn't see much of that in the Gulf, did you?

A Bit Picture Heavy Today
     Yes, which makes for a quicker blog.  What, you want some deathless prose?  Try this:

One of several items written in his younger days by Conrad.  You don't have to read it, you don't have to like it, but there is an awful lot of it.

Lastly We Have Another Deserving Animal Beginning With "W"
     After lauding the weasel and the warthog, it is now the turn of the Wolf.  Yes.  That dog you are patting, or scratching behind the ear, is a form of domesticated wolf**.  Alsatians and Huskies even look the part.  

Weasel or wolf?  Only you can decide!

We here in the UK opted out of the "Wolf Yes or No" option several centuries ago, but in places like Russia or Central Europe they were a force to be reckoned with.  Part of their bad press comes from Dracula and his ilk - he kept them as a kind of off-stage choir - and as Robert Pattinson can tell you, hanging around with vampires does your reputation no good at all.  Another hit to the good standing of Canis Rufus is the werewolf, and as Lon Chaney can tell you, hanging around with werewolves does your reputation no good at all.

Robert Pattinson trying some Method Acting

So!  When you next hear talk of a "wolf-pack" or "wolfing it down" or "Canis Rufus Is A Doofus", please refrain from nodding in agreement.  After all, there are such things as cuddly wolves -
