And The Greatest Pancakes in the Universe are ...

Bunkerman's.  :)

A reprise challenge cage match was held the crisp morning of December 24 on the home turf of Big Al.  The participants were buff and prepared, each having a stock of secret ingredients to use.

Big Al chose the go the all-natural, greenie style route with plenty of zest of lemon for his perfectly formed citrus pancakes. Big Al's plating incorporated orange slices on a field of powdered sugar - quite attractive.

Bunkerman used sophisticated science and technology to capture dark matter and dark energy [aka red and green dark chocolate m&m's) and a few Higg's bosons (semi-dried Bing cherries) to flavor his delicate, fluffy (using cosmic inflation aka sour cream), and yes, a bit crunchy (via chopped walnuts) vanilla multigrain pancakes.  Bunkerman's plating used a Christmas motif - mint leaves and fresh red raspberries - to accentuate the red & green from the embedded m&ms.

Naturally, [ ;) ] man defeated nature and Bunkerman won.  The pancakes were graded according to taste (50%), texture (30%), plating (10%) and creativity (10%).  The contest was a bit close, though, with a point differential of about 20 pts out of a possible 400.

Bunkerman was, of course, modest in his win, simply thanking the judges and looking at his shoelaces as his HS coach used to urge. Big Al was gracious, congratulating Bunkerman for a well-fought match.

And Bunkerman began new plans for Relativistic Pancakes to be ready when Big Al issues a new challenge.

The "handle" of a handgun is called the "grip".

Ivory grips on a stainless steel or chromed handgun are very attractive.

Gloss white, too.

Bunkerman said...

There's a good quote about "white" handles on a handgun in the movie, Patton.

Spin-em said...

PS the Boeheims,JoPa's had nothing to do with pervs...they just want to coach..the sheeple like BUB ..needed to blame somebody....theyve moved on and closed the windows to their holier than thou glass homes...after ruining a guys reputation and career with bs stones....after he dies...they'll say...ya know...he was a great man....it wasn't like it was JoPa that did it"...make no mistake...they will..piss on em from heaven JoPa..EAT SHIT PENN STATE...YA GUTLESS WORM$$$

Only a pimp in a New Orleans whorehouse or a tin-horn gambler would carry a pearl-handled pistol

Bunkerman said...

I'm doing quadruple voodoo spells for good luck next year.

New Year's Eve - spring rolls (look like little gold bars)

New Year's Day: golden colored knodels, golden saurkraut, golden mashed turnips with the grilled bratwurst.

Happy New Year!!!
