It's another classic movie Saturday at the Ragman homestead.

Today's classics include the 1938 Tarzan and his Mate.

Watched several Tarzan movies today.

The best ones starred what's his name . . . Johnny Something or another.

Did a little shopping at Cracker Barrel View attachment 10777

Just had a conversation about this. Bacon lately, is like it's injected with bacon, and soaked in salt and sugar. I'm used to grease in the pan, that can be used to fry eggs in. The crap you usually get now... the salt/sugar goop... sticks to the bottom of the pan, and you can't fry eggs until you wash it.

Got some peppered bacon from Nino Salvaggios in Troy. No residue, mild tasting without the extra additives. I love the pieces covered with peppercorns. OH YEAH :singing:. The bits in the pan give the eggs a nice bacony extra.

Nino's is the shiznit. They also have the best homemade Italian sausage at 3.99/lb, good premade salads, and some really good foccasia bread. I'm liking it more everytime I go there.

We get our bacon, well all our meat from a slaughterhouse in Zanesville, the name slips my mind right now??

Yeah, that's the guy.
Johnny trained for the Olympics here in Ft. Lauderdale. After his movie career (Tarzan, then Jungle Jim) he lived in a condo here. When he had too much "banana juice" in the evening, he would stand on his balcony and share his Tarzan yell with all the neighbors. I hear most of them did not appreciate it after the umpteenth time.

Very interesting and nice first hand info. I bet TMZ doesn't even know about this:)

By the way, when I make my yells, the van windows are up. Didn't want to scare the passing T/T drivers, lol.
