This morning's local traffic carnage included both tar and feathers. Though fortunately, not mixed together, but about 90 miles apart: Rolled over tanker spills 3,500 gallons of liquid asphalt near Cle Elum | KOMO Semi rollover blocks traffic, spills feathers on I-5 during morning commute | KOMO
Musta been a pretty gruesome method of social (mob) justice to reverberate in our culture all these years later...... I spilled hot oatmeal on myself while trying to multi-task just the other morning and since I was listening to an episode of the podcast Revolutions at the time, and one of the earlier episodes described this in a little detail........I received a theory-to-practice demo on how a heated gooey substance applied to unprotected flesh might actually feel..........without the feathers of course, which would do little to improve the taste of oatmeal. Only salt, honey, cinnamon, and a liberal application of some form of animal fat (bacon, butter, etc.....) can do that! Speaking of theory.....if you indulge in an ultra-low-carb (essentially a Vegan) diet, you will NOT live longer!!! It will just seem longer!
