I still call that the "vic venti", because it came out when I was in Italy.
Just one more reason why no-one ever knows what I'm talking about.

Video here: [^] :
"When I first met local bacontrepreneurs Justin Esch and Dave Lefkow of J&D’s Foods in 2010, all I knew was that I had been assigned to shoot a video about some “local dudes” who had created “a Kevin Bacon head out of bacon.” Ehhhhhh?
They invited me to J&D’s headquarters south of downtown Seattle to meet face-to-face with their life size Kevin Bacon head. Lefkow would tell me at the time, “Kevin Bacon has earned this. He deserves to be enshrined in bacon.”
Fast forward four bacon-filled years and J&D’s Foods has been on Oprah, The Daily Show, CNN, NY Times, the SeattleInsider page on KIROtv.com (this alone makes their brand unstoppable) and has captured over two billion press impressions for their bacon efforts."

"What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts.
Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

I perceive phenomena like this as a reflection of the insanity of this world, certainly of the contemporary insanity of the country where I was born.
But, then, I ask myself if it is my own insanity leads me to select such things to perceive from the infinite flux of things-which-could-be-perceived. After all, what is the consciousness with which I perceive this reality except the product of my culture with all its insanity, and sanity, and the product of my genes with all their evolutionary agendas and stratagems ?
Unfortunately, I have only one personality at present, so no one replies to my question.

I've got a couple of spare one I could send you if you think they'd be handy?
The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.
English doesn't borrow from other languages.
English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

I will admit to using the company's Baconnaise on sandwiches, and I have a bottle of bacon salt in my pantry (it is quite good over popcorn.) I have even given their bacon-scented sunscreen as a joke gift; apparently, it works quite well and can be a great conversation starter on the beach.
I think I will pass on the pit roll, though.

I was late into work and explained I had to go for a medical examination.
"Prostate?" asked my boss.
"No," I said, "I had to bend over his desk".

I will recommend taking the white one that seems to have sleeves that are too long and some sort of belts attached to it.

I recently built the shared-mime-info Database[^] for Windows using MinGW-w64. I have also created a C# library for loading and getting data from the database.
If anyone wants, I can put the library, the latest (as of this writing) version of the database, and the update-mime-info executables I built on Github.
I currently have to do some testing to make sure everything works as expected, but I think things should work. The mime data file format is rather simple.
EDIT: Changed tense. build != built
