The eyes are fascinating, but not so much for everything in between.

I’ve heard of drinking a yard of ale…. but not a foot.

In fact, I thought a foot of water meant something totally different.

“There was a foot of water on the beach today.

I even drank a handful of it.”

According to Google translate….

“I find it in Traffic cigarettes”…. in Dutch.

It’s a pun… “Dat tref ik in Traffic.”

I cannot find anything that says the brand actually existed.
Indeed, the top selling cigarettes in the Netherlands read like you could be in New York City.
What I can find is an art print by artist Kim Kent on the “fineartamerica” site.

I can see it, but only by looking at the “after” image.

It’s a good thing these people change.
If they didn’t my perfect lack of recognition would be ruined, ruined I tell you !

This one is almost grown up.

He already looks almost the same to me as he did in his early films and on television.

I recognized him because in his face I can see

Spoiler….

I’m “face blind”. I can’t remember faces, it’s awful. Even after all these years, Susan, I could walk right by you and not even know it’s you.
That was a joke, obviously, but I honestly must work with someone over a year before I would recognize them outside of our department. What makes it worse is that things I do remember, hair and general build, are covered with shapeless lab coats and hair nets in labs and production areas.
So identifying an old actor from a young face shot is impossible. In fact, I can rarely identify actors while watching a show.

Same for me, too. I often identify by the voices.

and bacon boy…

I don’t have that particular disability, and I sympathise.

Iin RL I can sometimes be clueless about faces.

If I know someone in a certain context…. my favorite bank teller, even a neighbor… I don’t recognise them at the supermarket.

My doctor was at the fair. She said hello so enthusiastically, I said it back with warmth. Half an hour later I realised who she probably was.

I’m waiting to run into a neighbor who moved, and i miss her. I hope it didn’t happen and I ignored her.

It actually startles me that I’m doing so well at these pictures.

Maybe cos I’ve seen the people so often, or maybe it’s that they’re not moving?

Wish I could figure out…

and find a way we could separate out and exercise that skill for use in everyday interactions.

I often recognize people by their build and gait, based on my experience walking my dogs. Not so good with faces.

Tom Power of CBC radio’s “Q” interviewed Mick Jagger on Monday of this week.
Here is a link to that interview.
Tom Power’s introduction to the show in general and subsequent build-up to the actual interview takes 3 minutes 20 seconds.
It is worth listening to in my opinion, but if you don’t want to, grab the white dot in the progress bar and drag it to the time above.     TOM POWER AND MICK JAGGER.     I do not know whether it is true, but from other sources the picture is supposedly the on the cover of their new album.
It might by WordPress or it might be my computer, but you may have to refresh your page after reaching the link.

I hope they wouldn’t put it on their album!

I doubt Mick would find it amusing, though you never know.

It would still be bizarre… maybe macabre… to include a forward-aged picture of their bandmate who died two years ago… though I read that they’re using recordings of his drumming on a couple of tracks.

Good grief is right!

They don’t look like this… not yet anyway!

This was done with some kind of age filter.

Charlie Watts never got that old.

This is how they really looked on the 2021 tour, not long before Charlie passed away at 80.

Today’s Songs:
‘Good Girls Don’t,’ ‘Gotta See Jane,’ ‘Greased Lightnin’ ‘ , and ‘Green Door,’ and the ‘Cheap Thrills Cuisine’ recipe ‘Apricot-Cheesecake-Singles’
A new fruit ! !  A new Fruit ! !
I submit that ‘Good Girls Don’t’ and ‘Greased Lightnin’ ‘ are about the same level of ‘raciness’ if they are at all.
Try that dance drop in ‘Greased Lightnin’ on any modern car and see what happens.

Green Door is an old one, I haven’t heard it in years (decades?). Good Girls sounded familiar but I couldn’t really remember it. And Gotta see Jane is 100% new to me. But they’re all reall enjoyable.

At the five minute mark, I was reminded of one of my favourite names that is decidedly oddball, it’s from baseball;
“The Los Angeles Angels.”

I’ve not made this, but it sounds good.

 
From:
“THE HOUSE OF CHAN COOKBOOK”
Doubleday & Company, Inc., Garden City, N. Y.
Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 52-5543
Copyright, 1952, by Sou Chan
 
CHICKEN FRIED RICE
 
2 tablespoons oil or bacon fat
1 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
6 cups cooked rice
3 tablespoons soya sauce
1 or 2 scallions, chopped green and white

 
Heat oil or fat in a frying pan; add chicken; season with salt and pepper. Stir and cook till hot and browning. Add the egg; stir till the cooked egg is in shreds throughout the chicken. Add the rice; stir and cook till browning. Add soya sauce. Mix and cook about 2 minutes. Sprinkle scallions on top, stir, and serve at once. 4 servings.
 
Note from me:
The author, Sou Chan, arrived in Seattle, in 1928 directly from China, and worked his way up to opening his own restaurant in New York City in 1938.
From the blurb, all the recipes are in translation from his handwritten recipes.
He died in February, 1978 aged 69 of cancer.

I would add some sweet peppers, diced, and some hot chilis to taste. Maybe some garlic and ginger as well.
