I hope you all realize the most important part of a new topic post is the click-bait headline. I was going to go with HEADLESS BODY IN TOPLESS BAR, but that's been done...

You're all probably the sort of food snobs who'd insist that Chef Boyardee is not one of the all-time great Italian chefs.

Charles Entenmann, who propelled his family’s New York bakery into a national brand, died in Florida last month at the age of 92. Entenmann, his brothers and mother expanded the Bay Shore business across the region and eventually the country, following the 1951 death of his father William Entenmann, a German immigrant who opened the bakery in Brooklyn in 1898, according to its website. His family sold its cakes-and-cookies enterprise for $233 million in 1978, which is more than a billion dollars in today’s money, Newsday reported. Entenmann’s still operates under new ownership, but closed their Bay Shore plant in 2014, the article said. Entenmann, a Korean War veteran, was a supporter and advocate for the Great South Bay YMCA, and funded research to improve water quality and habitats in the bay, which separates his hometown from Fire Island, according to his obituary. “He never wanted the accolades, the publicity; and when he gave, he gave with all his heart and with complete faith and trust in you,” Anne Brigis, a longtime YMCA executive, told the paper. “He treated everybody with respect. It didn’t matter if you were a janitor at the bakery or a custodian at the Y or senior leadership.” In retirement, Entenmann spearheaded energy and medical advances at his research lab and healthcare company, and along with his brothers Robert and William established the Entenmann Family Cardiac Center at Bay Shore’s Southside Hospital. “He was an extremely generous man,” his son Charles Edward Entenmann said. “He was just a really intelligent guy … He had a fantastic sense of humor and was always playing jokes on people and having fun. He did it right.” The elder Entenmann, who concentrated on the engineering and technical aspects of the bakery enterprise, didn’t share his family’s sweet tooth, his son reportedly revealed. “I’m going to tell you something that’s been pretty much a secret, most of my life anyway,” his son told Newsday. “He didn’t eat Entenmann’s cake … He just wasn’t a dessert guy.” Charles Edward Entenmann died outside Miami on Feb. 24. He had lived in Florida for decades but was buried on Long Island.

Who says I hate the show? I just don't love it to the extent that most people do. And I simply wish Abe, Shirley, and Sophie would be decapitated in a runaway-guillotine sort of scenario. (Susie gets Sophie another shot on Broadway playing Marie Antoinette. The prop manager, sick of Jane Lynch playing annoying characters, makes a 'mistake' and sets up a real guillotine, then consults with one of Abe's former math students to figure out the perfect angle so the blade flies off into the audience after beheading Sophie and beheads Abe, who is reviewing the show, and Shirley, who is sitting behind him in the 'annoying characters who got free tickets' section.) As for memories of Mr. Eisenberg... any show that had young Mr. Meloni's butt squeezed into a pair of spandex bike shorts in one episode (and tight jeans in some others) is seared into my memory. Every time I ever saw Ned Eisenberg onscreen I'd say to myself 'there's the guy whose younger brother wore bike shorts that one time..." https://www.companyofmen.org/topic/118930-im-shocked-nobody-posted-this-monumental-tv-news-stabler-returns/?do=findComment&comment=1973411

A bizarre advert for a roommate has left social media users stunned as the poster has a very strange demand. The Underwood house located in Brisbane, Queensland has a number of rooms for rent and comes with a pool table, a photography studio, a swimming pool, and a gym. But what’s left potential flatmates stunned was that clothing in the house was optional. The house has been previously advertised with prices for each room ranging from $180 to $200 but with no mention of nudity. However, in a recent Facebook post, a current flatmate specified that “Nudist welcome, private, cozy, entertaining and respectful home.” Posting on Brisbane Online Marketplace’s page, Emilio Spinosa said there is a king-size room and a queen size available for $200 including bills. Flatmates of the Nudist house share the kitchen, laundry, and lounge area. The strange ad has left Facebook users stunned with one wondering: “Do you have to be nude or is it a choice?” Another one said: “I’m reading between the lines here… something more sinister going on. “I bet there’s no cupboards or storage for your clothes, hence nudists wanted? Beware!” Someone joked: “Do we have to wear masks inside?” And someone added : “Please come live in my house and be naked playing table tennis thank you. Bless them. Good on ‘em for looking for their tribe, albeit via FB marketplace.”

Cute Critters to Take Our Minds Off Everyday Stresses
samhexum replied to + quoththeraven's topic in The Lounge
It was Memorial Day 2020 when a driver in New Jersey spotted a small black kitten on the side of the road. Her eyes were closed. She was blind. Her mother had been killed by a car. So he picked up the kitten and took her to Funny Farm, a rescue outfit where no animal in need is turned away. “She was near death,” recalled Laurie Zaleski, who runs the place in Mays Landing. “That little kitten wasn’t going to make it.” A day later, a police officer arrived. He’d also found an abandoned animal — a duckling. Zaleski put the two orphans together. “They kept each other warm,” she said. And so it was that Hope the kitten got her own seeing-eye duck, Jello, who delighted in helping the tiny feline find her way around. “That’s the happiest little duck you ever saw,” Zalesky said. Theirs is just one of many unlikely bonds she’s witnessed among her band of 600 misfits. There are dogs helping chickens. A llama who adopted a donkey. A German shepherd and blind lamb who are best friends. Zaleksi, who wrote a new book, “Funny Farm,” about starting the sanctuary as a tribute to her late mom, says humans can learn from what goes on there. “They’re all brothers and sisters here,” she said. “We have a kindness program where we go to all these schools. We tell the kids, ‘These animals all get along together so maybe you guys can, too.'” Hope the kitten and Jello the duck Laurie Zaleski Hope, found blind, was lucky to arrive at the farm just one day before Jello, who took the tiny feline under his wing and acts as her seeing-eye duck. Scooby-Doo the dog and Bradley the lamb This little lamb, Bradley, got off to a rough start: His mom refused to let him nurse, and he was blind. But once he arrived at the farm, Scooby-Doo adopted him. Now Bradley and the big dog, a German shepherd who had been abandoned in an apartment in Brooklyn, are best buddies. Yogi the cow and Cooper the alpaca Matt Reeves These longtime pals share a pen but have to be careful when getting close — Yogi once accidentally poked the alpaca in the side with his horn. While Cooper needed medical care and a week to recover, Yogi clearly missed his buddy, laying on the ground and refusing to eat any treats. But, caretaker Laurie Zaleski said, he perked right up when Cooper returned. Lorenzo the llama and Jethro the mini donkey Laurie Zaleski After Jethro lost his longtime companion Smokey the horse, the 50-year-old mini donkey stopped eating, avoided other animals and seemed inconsolable. Enter Lorenzo, who bonded with the heartbroken Jethro and helped him regain his health. The two enjoy one of the strongest friendships on the farm. Nemo the baby goat and Tad the chicken These two bunk mates sleep next to each other every night, after hanging out together on the farm during the day. Adele the chicken and E’yore the donkey Known as the diva of the hen house, Adele does not like cold tootsies. Her favorite way to warm up her feet is by sinking them into the coat of E’yore, who seems happy about it. Pinky the baby emu and Puppy the miniature schnauzer Pinky has splayed legs and needs a special brace to walk on her own, but that doesn’t bother Puppy. The two chase each other around for hours, until it’s time for nap. Cowboy the goat, Reggie the sheep, Yogi the cow and Farley the dog Laurie Zaleski The embodiment of getting by with a little help from your friends, this group is known as the farm’s Fab Four. https://nypost.com/2022/03/01/the-blind-kitten-with-a-seeing-eye-duck-and-other-farm-friends/
