August - Critical Past and Food Safety

Almost everything that came up on Critical Past that happened on October 11th had something to do with war. Kind of a bummer. Although there was one video of a man taking a watch out of his pocket and looking at it. Why is this of historical significance? It's not even of hysterical significance (that was Davey B.). Most of the footage on this site has to do with WWII. I realize that this is important for us to remember but, geez, can we see some more non-war footage, please?

As for the minimum cooking temperature of pork. It is perfectly fine to eat pork raw. Preferably soaked in egg yoke that has been sitting out for a day or two. Either that or if you're a wimp you can cook it so that it reaches at least 160 degrees. Either way. Oh, and also, one of these methods will make you die.

  1. I've read three of these posts so far, and guess how many have mentioned the 160 degrees bit for pork. You got it, all three. I expected more from you Trev, to be honest. I never pegged you for a lemming.

    Now that I tore you down, I have to build you back up, so I gots this great break-up song from Mazzy Star:

    You and me
    We used to be together
    Everyday together always
    I really feel
    That I'm losing my best friend
    I can't believe
    This could be the end
    It looks as though you're letting go
    And if it's real
    Well I don't want to know

    Don't speak
    I know just what you're saying
    So please stop explaining
    Don't tell me cause it hurts
    Don't speak
    I know what you're thinking
    I don't need your reasons
    Don't tell me cause it hurts

  2. Dave, I wish it was possible to hate you more. But I cannot. I hate you 100%, which is the most hate. The mostest.

    p.s. I love the guitar at the beginning of that song.

  3. Oh, and also, we all three mentioned the 160 degree pork thing because WE WERE ORDERED TO! As were you. So do it. You're no more free than the rest of us.

  4. You seem pretty down there, friend, so allow me to pull up a three-legged stool and play you an acoustic version of my favorite Mazzy Star song of all time:

    Hey Jude don't make it bad
    Take a sad song and make it better
    Remember to let her into your heart
    Then you can start to make it better

    Hey Jude don't be afraid
    You were made to go out and get her
    The minute you let her under your skin
    Then you begin to make it better

    And any time you feel the pain,
    Hey Jude, refrain
    Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
    For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
    By making his world a little colder
    Da da da da da
    da da da da

    Hey Jude don't let me down
    You have found her now go and get her
    Remember to let her into your heart
    Then you can start to make it better

    So let it out and let it in
    Hey Jude begin
    You're waiting for someone to perform with
    And don't you know that it's just you
    Hey Jude you'll do
    The movement you need is on your shoulder

    Da da da da da
    da da da da Yeah

    Hey Jude don't make it bad
    Take a sad song and make it better
    Remember to let her under your skin
    Then you'll begin to make it better
    Better, better, better, better, better, Yeah,Yeah,Yeah

    1, 2, 3, 4, (Jude, Jude, Judey, Judey, Judey, Judey, Waaa!) 5, (Jude, Jude, Jude, Jude, Jude) 6, (Yah, Yah, Yah) 7, (Jude, HEY JUDE! WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!) 8, (OH, JUDE!) 9, 10 (Jude, Jude, Jude, Jude, Jude, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH!) 11, 12, (Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, OOOOH, WHAAAAAAAAAAA!) 13, 14, 15, (YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA!) 16, (JUDE, MAHMAHMAHMAHMAHMAAHAAAAHH!) 17, 18, (Woooooo!) 19, (Well then a Nah Nah...) 20...


    You can find a nifty little video of the song on lyrics.com featuring a cameo by non other than a teenage Al Franken. Make sure you check out the guy at the 5:58 mark as well. He's playing it cool.
