Turns out that you can roll cheese in England. In fact, it is an extreme sport:
The rules of the game are simple, you show up, you chase cheese off a cliff, you tumble for a couple hundred yards, then you go to either the pub or the local hospital.
They offer sensible advice: “Although there is a safety fence to separate the spectators area from the course, it is not uncommon for spectators to be injured in this event. In 1997 one of the spectators was hit by the cheese and was sent tumbling down the hill and required hospital treatment – so stay alert and keep an watchful eye on your children.”
Good. OK.
Then, these folks in Cambridge, MA offer some equally sensible (though awfully wordy) advice about cheese, AKA ” The Mysterious Marvel:”
“Don’t forget the wines. The confirmed wine lover is, by nature, a philanderer among cheeses and soon finds no food that better prepares the taste buds for the appreciation of subtleties in wine than does cheese in any of its myriad manifestations.”
(Don’t forget to check the “Puppy Cam” link at the top. )
Speaking of elves, here’s a band called Elf Power! They have to be good because the guy in the middle looks like John Cusack. And here’s one called Magic Elf! Even if their album’s title was not “Heavy Meddle,” I would adore them. Because they are elves and dressed all in black and they are a Power Trio!
Plus, I found some instructions on how to create really teensy ELF executables for Linux.
There. Something for everyone.
