  1. According to my Facebook memories, I was enjoying a Philly Cheesesteak and watching Nick Blackburn get shelled ten years ago today in Philadelphia.

    The cheesesteak was good! Blackburn wasn't.

    1. But since you mention it...I did once (nineish years ago) go to Philly for a game and a Cheesesteak, not in that order. Both were pretty darn good. Good times.

      1. I saw a Phillies-Pirates game at the Vet back in early 2003. No recollection of my meal.

  2. I saw someone at our local Costco using a Homer Hanky as a mask. Not something I expected to see out here!

  3. My sandwich today was exceptional. 12 grain, smoked ham and turkey, iceberg sheets, mayo + green chili, and cojack.

    1. For the last two days I had small sandwiches with leftover tri-tip, provolone, mayo, a touch of worcestershire sauce, and a bunch of horseradish on a dinner roll. If I had more tri-tip, I'd probably have one again today.

    2. I took some leftover BBQ chashu pork and added it to a toasted wheat english muffin with red pepper, onion, and melted southwestern cheese blend. Was upset when I found out I didn't have any greens to add.

          1. I'm sure this is true for a lot of households growing up, but hotdog wasn't just an entree at our house - it was an ingredient. We'd have hotdogs cut up and put in beans, chili, pancakes, croissant dough, bread dough... and I've definitely eaten a hotdog plain with a fork. Or maybe it was just my household. Not a big fan of hotdogs these days.

              1. My grand-grandma would make me wiener sandwiches as a kid. I think it was just two hot dogs halved and put between two pieces of buttered toast. Something like that at least. A 6 year old Joe loved them.

              Little beanie weenies!!!!

              I think that's something that I discovered at the Alma Mater food service, but maybe had it in high school lunches too.

        1. I once made a peanut-butter and salsa sandwich. In my defense, I was cutting weight; not thinking clearly and was desperate for flavor. Not my finest hour.

          1. I love me hummus. But open faced? There is no jealousy involved in my assessment, I assure you.

                  1. I posed the six-sandwich challenge to my quasi retired-dudes on the Thursday night Happy hour.

                    Ross (not his real name, OK it is) - Butter sandwich.

                    Max's wife - I don't really eat bread.

  4. Remember, a dead fish can float downstream, but it takes a live one to swim upstream.
