Been on a Italian kick lately so tonight I made a simple but extremely flavorful tomato/egg dish that really surprised me how good my version turned out

Key ingredients, Frankie’s 457 EVOO, San Marzano tomatoes, Parmigiano Reggieno & Pecorino Romano

Was sooooooo gooooood

Midway USA & the NRA

It seems there was a Midway USA post on social media (Instagram maybe?) with Larry and Brenda extolling the praises of outgoing NRA president LaPierre and touting their friendship.

I read some of the comments. They were not flattering. Or nice. Some weren’t even civil 😂 I don’t know if MidwayUSA sales have suffered, but I just looked and I don’t see the post anywhere. Apparently the marketing department realized their faux pas and is trying to make amends?

Frostbite

Nope, not me this time, but a close friend. My friend hauls Fairbanks to Prudhoe bay. He frostbit both his knees while chaining up, blistered areas are about 5x5". No black, just blistering, so no danger of gangrene. He carries a rudimentary first aid kit, but I'm sure that changed when he got back down to Fairbanks. Normally it's a day and a half each way during good conditions, but it's frequently several days due to conditions. I advised him to include extra bandaging and lots of Neosporin or equivalent since he sometimes gets held up a few days.
For those who aren't familiar with frostbite, it's very similar to 2nd or 3rd degree burns, same pain and infection risks.
His wife calls me Red Foreman, but I couldn't bring myself to call him Dumbass this time.
