  1. I have a magazine from some years ago, think it was road and track, where the article writer described eating food on a road trip and putting hot pockets on the intake manifold to cook them, that only took a few minutes, but they did taste like unleaded gas. Chuckling, no shit, dude.

    • When my family was traveling across country from Washington State to NY, my family DID cook off ofthe V8 under the hood of my dad’s 55 Chebbie station wagon. It was a 265, BTW

      Mom could cook lunch AND dinner, we used the miles traveled as the “timer” for various foods and put the food in various locations around the intake and exhaust manifolds.

      I don’t know where mom got the necessary info to know where/when/how to cook this way, se never told me. But we ate real good at an incredibly cheap price. This may have been due to the fact that mom and dad both went through the Depression and learned how to make do and do without…

      And here I am now – fat, dumb, and happy.

      • old army trick. we used to wire our c-rats to the engine to heat them up. otherwise it looked and smelled like dog food.
        there where a few you didn’t heat up. big one was tuna.
        but most of them “tasted” better when heated up.
        and using miles as a timer is about the same as a clock.

  2. I prefer vanilla or coconut oil. Not a damn greasy burger. That’s worse than cigarette smoke.

  3. Yeah, it was Brigid, my favorite lady gunblogger, who claimed that Hoppes#9 is her favorite scent. A dab behind each ear. *Sigh*. I do have a Hoppes#9 air freshener hanging from my rear view mirror.

  4. That would be an improvement. The office girl where I used to work always had some lingering vegetable bean soup aroma emanating from her. She was one of those “natural types” and I overheard her once say deodorant was bad for you.

    • Well a lot of the commercial deodorants ARE bad for you, but good ol’ soap and water never hurt nobody!
