A Taco Inlaid Pond

June 12th, 2008

Anagram Sam, Episode 2 of 66667

It’s time for another one of these tremendously pointless posts.

So the new blog description is A Taco Inlaid Pond. This is great for a number of reasons. Here are the reasons:

  • Nobody eats tacos in Ireland, they are too small for our mammoth appetites, and are far too fiddly for our huge blunt hands. We prefer other, more wieldy Mexican and faux-Mexican cuisine, such as the mighty burrito (exemplified by the weighty examples purveyed by La Salsa in Galway). What better to do with tacos therefore, than to inlay a pond with them - perhaps by encasing them in a translucent resin at the bottom of the pond.
  • Apart from tacos, other materials used for inlaying include wood veneer, shells and niello. Perhaps a combination could be used to spruce up the garden furniture near your pond.
  • A pond can be anything from one meter squared, to two hectares in area, so why be constrained by tradition - supersize your taco inlaid pond.
  • Beware, eutrophication can really fuck up your pond (see diagram above).

The confused or feeble-minded amongst you should click here, to understand the dubious premise.

I feel sorry for all the readers who’ve discovered this lovely blog recently and enjoyed some entertaining posts about Stephen Malkmus, Radiohead and even a light-hearted debate about Denzel from Washington…only to return for more of same and find themselves slapped upside the head with talk of tacos, ponds and eutrophication. The diagram helps, of course, but not much…

This will never be a Bon Jovi-esque blog I’m afraid.

Surely you’re going to produce a limited run of tshirts with the various anagrams (snagaram?).

Hold on there guys, and what exactly is *wrong* with alienation?? personally it’s something I take pride in…

What a nice credit-crunch-defying idea Thegirl[…], I might just do that. Though my basic understanding of the concepts of supply and demand seems to suggest that it is a bad idea, economically speaking.

Oh, and Rosie, you should probably be reading dormant humour-volcano, Phantom Bacon. I believe the author is modest and unreliable. “Mankmouse,” - that’s shocking.

It’d take a genius to figure that out.
