But we don't have so many street vendors over here. So we have to plan our meals at our tables...

I have a grand total of one in my local area. So I better call it eating away from 🏠. At who ever’s “table” it may be.

I guess most of us in Europe will call that food rations.
Not Norway though.
They have matpakke (foodpackage):)

My tummy would not like me to eat like that. Though it did give a idea for a tasty sandwich. Braunschweiger sandwiches.

Best braunschweiger I know of is from Usinger's in Milwaukee. A very tasty treat.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — A fire destroyed a massive Jim Beam warehouse filled with about 45,000 barrels of bourbon, sending flames shooting into the night sky and generating so much heat that firetruck lights melted, authorities said Wednesday.

MAD Magazine is leaving the NEWS Stands, going subscription only, in a MAD world. Though except for once a year, no new content. :(

David Bowie to be immortalised by Barbie

Now, 50 Golden Years after the release of Space Oddity, a few Changes mean it's a case of Barbie Dolls.

Toymakers Mattel have announced a new collectable doll inspired by his signature Ziggy Stardust fashion.

Dubbed Barbie as Bowie, the doll is dressed as the late singer's glam-rock alter ego, complete with a pair of red platform boots and topped with his fiery-red mullet.

Someone passed gas after KFC
A gas explosion leveled an entire KFC restaurant in North Carolina.

Video showed the aftermath of the explosion, with all that was left standing was the sign and the facade.

Many years back, the night before the first McDonalds was due to open, there was a gas explosion at the Hungry Jacks store (another burger chain). Although it was determined to be from a gas leak, it was always rumoured that a person in a bright yellow clown outfit with bright read hair was seen running from the store shortly before the explosion...

Hahaha, yeah a little bit!! I want to see more pics for sure. But heck...I'd even be proud of what that guy has. Probably closer to what I'd be able to DIY myself.

Today, exactly 50 years ago, the area around Cape Kennedy in Florida was filled with people who followed the way the rocket Saturn V left the earth.
Four days later, astronauts landed on the moon - in the world's most spectacular space expedition.

On July 16, 1969, few households had their own TVs, yet more than 530 million people gathered at the live television programs to take part in the moon adventure. It was then the world's most viewed program and in Sweden they followed the expedition for several days from the studio in Stockholm and with correspondents at location in the US. The interest was enormous, even though the picture quality from NASA's broadcasts was not so good at first.

It was like yesterday to Me, yeah We had a TV, a color tv made by Magnavox. National Geographic Magazine did an article about the Apollo Program, My mom did touch up for a company named Chem Aero, which after Nixon cancelled the program went bankrupt. Oh some of that touch up is on the Moon under one of the steps on each of the LEM's(Lunar Excursion Module) a plaque which is as fresh as the day the mighty Saturn V rocket was launched to Earth's moon thanks to a hard lunar vacuum.

4 Astronauts, 1 in orbit, 2 on the moon, and 1 in DC, this plaque is from Apollo 11. Buzz was his nickname until He had His first name changed from Edwin to Buzz.
