    Here in Cleveland the local McDonald’s are featuring a sandwich called a “Thome Triple” [or “Triple Thome”] a none too subtle reference to Jim Thome who plays baseball for the Cleveland Indians. The advertising is complete with the baseball team’s logo. The sandwich itself is in the shape of a 6-8 inch sub, and is compried of 3 ...

    Polycarp June 25, 2006, 5:33pm 3. A second possibility might be sensitivity to niacin (either nicotinic acid or niacinamide). Most of the population experiences a sensation resembling a flush and a sense of having a mild fever after ingesting substantial niacin “in one fell swoop” (as, for example, in a high-mg niacin vitamin pill). Many of ...

  4. Cracker Jack: Offensive? Racist? - Straight Dope

    boards.straightdope.com/t/cracker-jack-offensive-racist/153781

    Most people have heard of Cracker Jack®. It’s sort of like caramel corn, it comes in a box with a prize, and it was immortalized in “Take me out to the Ballgame”. But why does it have that name? The food is vaguely cracker-like, sharing more similarities with crackers than Grape Nuts® shares with either grapes or nuts. Apparently, crackerjack was a late 19th century slang expression ...

    boards.straightdope.com/t/travel-road-food-for-car-trip-2024-edition/1007173

    My wife and I just made a 2000 mile road trip last weekend. We packed a cooler with some cans of pop, cheese sticks, apple slices, and veggies (baby carrots and cut up broccoli and cauliflower). I also bought a box of Kind bars for the trip but left them in the pantry at home. Spiderman September 12, 2024, 5:53pm 3. ParallelLines:

  7. Sent a Steak Back to Kitchen and Got Same Steak in Return

    OP: Most restaurants are barely profitable as it is and steaks are expensive. (I recall going over a P&L sheet once when I was at Jack in the Box and discovering that our location’s net profit for the month was $6.) I see no reason to throw out a perfectly good cut of beef that was a little pinker than you’d have liked.

    It MIGHT say if you right click my computer and go to properties, and it MIGHT say if you go to NT diagnostics on your start menu (under admin tools, i think). Muppet’s second method works; the first one doesn’t. Alternatively, you can go to “run” on the start menu, type “winver” into the dialog box and hit return.

    I’ve always wondered this, and the internet at large also doesn’t seem to know the answer judging on a few google searches. I always assumed the Chili Mac was Chili on Macaroni while the Chili 3-Way is the “Skyline Chili” style of spaghetti with chili on top, but I just had a Chili Mac after only having their Chili 3-Way and it’s still served with regular spaghetti and noticed no ...

  10. Changing VCR input from co-ax to RCA without the remote

    If I want to record something (e.g., off the air via my DTV down-converter box), I have to connect the DTV unit to the VCR with a co-ax cable. I would prefer to connect with RCA cables, but from what I read in the owner’s manual*, the default signal input is co-ax. To change the input to RCA, one has to use the remote to access the menu.

    ftg September 9, 2024, 6:07pm 16. At least you can special order having your own 45 made. In addition to those jukeboxes at your table, they also had other coin-op devices. One, a fortune telling device, was featured in a Twilight Zone episode starring William Shatner. Czarcasm September 9, 2024, 6:13pm 17.
