I hope everyone is busy celebrating!!

[Kirby]

it's National Ice Cream Sandwich Day!!!! 

And while this day is rightfully full of specials and festivities, I hope it also serves as a reminder to be properly stocked for any storms or other emergency.

When is National Thank You Note Day?

[Kirby]

Today is also International Beer Day, but I doubt anyone will focus on that when they could have an ice cream sandwich instead!

This bit of code just made my Friday a good one.

Quote

if self.smartfail:
    print "SMARTFAIL = %s" % self.smartfail
    (position, ip) = self.get_updated_ipv4s(papi)
    if position == self.smartfail:
        self.ipv4s.remove(ip)
        self.ipv4s_itr = cycle(self.ipv4s)
        logger.debug('NDPapiIO.communicate: smartfail missing node = {}'.format(ip))
        logger.debug('NDPapiIO.communicate: smartfail updated ipv4s = {}'.format(self.ipv4s))

I will be having a beer with an international celebrity in NYC tonight.  Does that count?

It would be better if it were an ice cream sandwich, but it counts.

Maybe they could take RO along and she could have the ice cream sandwich?

I had an ice cream sandwich after the chili dogs for supper.  I didn't know it was a special day though.  Just lucky.

I had a Firestone Walker Merlin Mocha coffee milk stout.  Good!  Arrogant Bastard is excellent!

I just had a Spaten out by the campfire. Actually I was burning stuff that the wind blew down and threw some logs on to make a nicer fire.

...I'm grilling salmon steaks.  I tried grilling ice cream sandwiches, but something went wrong.

I had a New Holland The Poet tonight. It is a really good oatmeal stout.

Grilled peaches are good!  Just not sure if they are as good as raw peaches!

 

The book Sugar and Snow: A History of Ice Creamby Jeri Quinzio credits an unknown vendor in New York City as being the first to sell ice cream sandwiches, which went for a penny each.
