Spartan food does not sound delicious.

canute was a big cheater.

I'd like to know more about the noodle sandwich, sounds like it has potential. Got a recipe?

I,ve only used spaghetti when i was younger.But I'm sure any type of noodle would do.
Try Japanese noodles such as Ramen.You can buy it at most grocery stores or Japanese restaurants may contain differernt types of meat or fish or plain.It is up to you.

Are the noodles cooked or straight out of the box/bag/bowl? Do you use mayo, cheese, sauce of some sort, or eat it plain?

The Spartans had a black broth that they were supposed to love, but apparently everyone else hated it. They did eat together every night, though, which I love. I miss dorms, when I could eat with like, 7 people every night. Meals alone aren't as good. : (

Take one handful rice noodles.
Boil for three minutes and then drain (leave it to drip for three more minutes if you can spare the time).
Mix with two tablespoons peanut butter and one of dark soy sauce.
Add hot chilli sauce to taste.
Take two slices of thick-cut bread (the grainy stuff is best)
Apply butter (or equivalent spread - don't try the low fat stuff, it'll melt and make your bread soggy) to one side of each slice.
Place one slice on a large plate with the butter side up.
Empty the pan full of noodles over the bread.
Place the second slice on top of the first.
Cut diagonally across the slices.
Place plate on a tray.
Eat on knees in front of telly.
Delicious.

Bumpgasm!

Any movies coming out soon that people are looking forward to?

My 5 year old son has been soooo enamored with Iron Man that he is desperate to see Iron Man 2. He's trying to convince me that it would be okay to take him. But he's going to be disappointed, at least until I've had a chance to watch it first.

Conversely, I'm really looking forward to The Last Airbender which is a live action movie of the cartoon TV show Avatar: The Last Airbender which is just a great show for both kids and adults. It is supposed to be coming out July 2nd according to imdb.com. It concerns me that M. Night Shyamalan is the director. Some of his stuff has been great but some have been flops. I just worry the movie will rely too much on his hype than the great story the TV show put together.

Iron Man 2 is hopefully going to awesome. Its going to be hard to match the first one, but I think that they may be able to do it. I don't know anything about The Last Airbender (The movie or the show that it is based off of) so I can't make an opinion on that. I am pretty excited for Toy Story 3 though.

I'm looking forward to Avatar The Last Airbender, too. I loved the show.

I'm not looking forward to Toy Story 3. I would love it if it turned out as good as it could be. The first one was great. The second one was so-so, much like many sequels. I'm keeping my expectations low so I can be blown away if it deserves it and at least enjoy it a little if not.

I heard that "How to train your dragon" movie was a pretty good kids movie. My wife took my younger boys to that while I was working so I didn't get to see it myself.

I recently saw this romance movie If Only with my girlfriend that was good and that she enjoyed. I think it's a good couples film. If things are going well between you, anyway. If she complains that you're distant, it won't be so good for you.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE TIME! So I'm reading The Radetzky March, and freaking everyone in the Austro-Hungarian Empire is drinking slivovitz. Has anyone tried this stuff? Is it any good? Personally my favorite stuff is fruit lambic beer, especially Lindeman's.

weihenstephan wheat beer can not be beaten

Guinness
nuff said

nope, dark beer sucks

Lakefront Brewery's Bridge Burner is outstanding, if, like me, you like getting a facefull of hops.
I like to drink that, if I'm running low on the blood of my enemies.

lets get back on topic here!
We need someone to accuse of cheating! :)

Go to bed Golgo1.

If you like hops try the 120 minute IPA from Dogfish Head.

Slivovitz is similar to Italian Grappa.both are distilled by products of wine making much the same way the French make Congac.If you have a chance try all three.taste will vary depending on type of fruit used to make wine or whether it comes from a single grape source or blend of different grapes.Also proof can vary from 80% up.Not for the beer drinkers out there.

80% or 80 proof? I'm gonna go with 80 proof, cuz 80% would be really high.

As a Canadain I would have gone with %.But most people on site are Americans and I thought they would understand proof since that is how there liquor is marketed.

But % and proof are different. 80 proof is 40% alcohol.

Bump

80% proof is, of course, a badly completed maths problem
