Pure geekery

A diskworld wedding cake. I have to say I have new respect for marzipan as a medium.

I am a big fan of the Discworld series. Fun, light, interesting reads. When I first moved to Germany, my connection to sanity was “The British Bookshop” in Frankfurt until I had a social life, and they stocked every one of the books.

I’m especially partial to the “City Watch” books.

    I can see a centrifigul oven. But I can’t see how you’d keep it from collapsing once it’s out.

    Unless you had a habitat in microgravity.

    oh. Oh. OH. Ohhhh …

    Mmmmm…..Pizza
    All this talk is making me hungry.

    Sounds like a side business for one of these x-prize companies- “Free-Fall Pizza”.

    I think you’ve come up with a good name for first franchise outside the atmosphere.

    You could make a toroidial calzone, inside a centrifigul oven, here on earth. Then you wouldn’t have to wait as long. To eat that is.
