Exciting pastime? Watch cheese go moldy
English cheesemakers turn Web camera on a rack of maturing cheddar
LONDON - As pastimes go it is in the same league as watching paint dry, with perhaps a frisson of extra excitement.
English firm West Country Farmhouse Cheesemakers has turned a web camera on a rack of its maturing cheddar cheeses to give aficionados a chance to watch in real time the slow process of mould growth for a whole year and without having to leave home.
“It puts watching paint dry in the shade. If you happen to tune in at the right time you will even get to see them being turned,” a company spokeswoman told Reuters by telephone.

Dear Sir Fart,
I'm an surprised at you ... no ... SHOCKED would be a better word for it! Mildew finally gets his 15 minutes of fame, and yet you give me all the credit!! This ill-conceived attempt the rob Mildew of the fruits of his labors will NOT go unnoticed!!! I shall write a very sternly worded letter of complaint!
One other point of contention ... although I now reside in the Cheese Quadrant, I am not a "cheesehead". In evidence of this fact, I offer this picture, which you rudely refused to notice the first time I posted it!

My complaint about Sir Fart
Quote: | Multifarious avenues of approach vie for attention as potential retorts to Sir Fart's foolish prognoses. I will start this discussion by arguing that there is no time and little temptation for those who work hard on their jobs and their responsibilities to spoil the whole Zen Buddhist New Age mystical rock-worshipping aura of our body chakras. Then, I will present evidence that Sir Fart wants to produce an army of mindless insects who will obey his every command. To produce such an army, he plans to destroy people's minds using either drugs or an advanced form of lobotomy. Whichever approach he takes, I like to face facts. I like to look reality right in the eye and not pretend it's something else. And the reality of our present situation is this: I do not have the time, in one sitting, to go into the long answer as to why Sir Fart is guided by the vainglorious ethos of isolationism. But the short answer is that I wish that one of the innumerable busybodies who are forever making "statistical studies" about nonsense would instead make a statistical study that means something. For example, I'd like to see a statistical study of Sir Fart's capacity to learn the obvious. Also worthwhile would be a statistical study of how many obstreperous anarchists realize that Sir Fart is reluctant to resolve problems. He always just looks the other way and hopes no one will notice that he is known for walking into crowded rooms and telling everyone there that going through the motions of working is the same as working. Try, if you can, to concoct a statement better calculated to show how intellectually challenged Sir Fart is. You can't do it. Not only that, but an armed revolt against him is morally justified. However, I feel that it is not yet strategically justified. It is almost impossible for Sir Fart to be truthful on a consistent basis. I'll say that again, because I want it to sink in: Sir Fart was rather wide of the mark when he said that his way of life is correct and everyone else's isn't. It is a cardinal principle that like other deplorable misfits, he has a finely honed ability to capitalize on our needs and vulnerabilities. Am I saying that he should keep his thoughts to himself? Yes. That following his words left to right and down a page is like following fingernails on a chalkboard? Maybe. That he can't relate to anyone other than morally repugnant idiots? Definitely.
Sir Fart's hatchet men all look like Sir Fart, think like Sir Fart, act like Sir Fart, and grasp at straws, trying to find increasingly self-pitying ways to devise barbaric scams to get money for nothing, just like Sir Fart does. And all this in the name of -- let me see if I can get their propaganda straight -- brotherhood and service. Ha!
All of the bad things that are currently going on are a symptom of Sir Fart's asinine obiter dicta. They are not a cause; they are an effect. No matter how much talk and analysis occurs, even Sir Fart's subalterns are afraid that Sir Fart will reduce us to acute penury in the blink of an eye. I have seen their fear manifested over and over again, and it is further evidence that Sir Fart's pals consider his sound bites a breath of fresh air. I, however, find them more like the fetid odor of totalitarianism. In closing, all that I ask is that you join me to stop Sir Fart and subject his views to the rigorous scrutiny they warrant. |

Hey Shrubs....I think I found you a speech writer. If you replace "Sir Fart" in the quote with "Hillary", it sounds like a pretty good campaign speech. _________________ Fetch me the Holy Hand Grenade!

That could work too. You might want to keep him on retainer so you can have speech ready to tell everyone why it was a good thing for you to do it! _________________ Fetch me the Holy Hand Grenade!
