Oh snap! It's Candwich



The Candwich, A Complete History of the World’s Only Sandwich in a Can (via The Surfing Pizza)

Visit the Candwich website. But when you click on their Store be prepared to see the following,
"Candwich is on back order, so order today and get a 25% discount!
Due to overwhelming orders from government disaster agencies responding to hurricane, our production partner has been running 24/7. They are adding equipment to create some production room for Candwich. We anticipate shipping orders to begin shipping by April. We apologize for the delay. be shocked if the mystery deepens by the fact everything is on back order and you can't really order anything."
According to my research that was supposed to have been April of 2017 or at best, 2018! I can find nothing that lets us know if Candwich is still in business or not which makes the commercial and Candwich somewhat of a continuing internet mystery.

If you have any experiences with a Candwich or have more information on their whereabouts, please leave a comment below.

Looking For Syphilis: Can She Be Found?

I cruise the Library of Congress online Prints and Photographs Reading Room on a regular basis. I find some amazing images that inspire me to ponder the great mysteries of mankind.

This one tickled me fancy. Here are two well-dressed gentlemen doing the tango together. Before I saw it, I didn't know that I was supposed to be looking for Syphilis. I didn't know that she was lost and needed to be found. I didn't know that dancing the Tango had anything to do with Syphilis.

Well, now I know. If finding Syphilis makes men dance together, then I need to find her, and fast. Because there are entirely too many men out there killing each other. It would be much better if they all learned to do the Tango.

To get you into the mood, let's take a look at two fine examples of some lovely Tango (the pictures of Syphilis were, well, kind of a buzz kill).
