You must go there and find out whether he purchased or made his own coconut-infused rum.

Quote from: "Gimpson"
On an only tangentially related topic, living here at the head of the Oregon and Santa Fe trails we have museums and such devoted to those things.  I heard a report on the radio the other day advertising the Frontier Trails Museum and they mentioned Hiram and his blacksmith shop.  I had no idea that he was a real person; I had assumed he was made up either for Oregon Trail (the video game) or Achewood.


Quote

Hiram Young was a prominent African-American blacksmith in Independence, MO who bought slaves to work in his wagon shops and let them earn their freedom.


Jungle fever?

I wonder if the impetus for the bi-curious Hiram storyline was the exchange:

"Hiram Young?" "Yes, and horny!"

This has probably already been pointed out elsewhere, but Hiram Young really is an awesome porn star name.

Or director of Barely Legal #49 / any movie with "Cherry" or "Lolita" in the title.

This implies Teodor/Pat romantic fanfic, you realize.

Now it's in my head, and it involves Pat cursing constantly.

Just to point out how stupid I am, I thought the phrase "you look like you're about to rent me a jet-ski" was an incredible new way to describe nervousness.  After a day or so, I realized he was describing Teordore's disguise/outfit.

"How was the recital?"  "Well, little Timmy looked like he was ready to rent jet-ski's for the whole audience, but he knocked 'em dead with the Bach."

Back to the primordial ooze with me.

I was out with friends last weekend and we stopped for ice cream after dinner.  I was perusing the board of flavors when I noticed an interesting choice...





Of course I had to try it.  It wasn't really to my liking however, much too sweet, but it did have coconuts in it which I thought was suspicious.

"Oregon Trail Mix-Up" surely sounds like quite a dangerous mishap.  Kudos for you, Paul, for investigating.

I haven't been to Amy's in years.

If they made an ice cream that tasted like hardtack and salt pork, as any flavor named "Oregon Trail Mix-Up" surely must, I would be all over that. You don't really get enough hearty, dinnerish flavors in modern snacking.

I did get the Jones Soda Holiday Pack for Christmas.  The Cranberry Sauce Soda was pretty decent, the Green Bean Casserole Soda was foul, I left the Fruitcake Soda in the freezer too long and it burst, and the Mashed Potato & Butter Soda was surprisingly good.  

I still have the Turkey & Gravy Soda in the fridge waiting for a special occasion.

I think the "trail-mix" is the operative word in this particular flavor.  It had the aforementioned coconuts, chocolate chips, nuts, raisins, possibly granola.  But it also had pink and blue sprinkles so they were just all over the map with this one.  I love Amys ice cream, but this one wasn't their best offering.

Oh anyway, the point of posting these pictures was to raise the question; do you think the owners of Amy's are readers of Achewood?  Probably not, it's a bit of a reach, but it would be neat if it were so and this flavor was actually inspired by events in the comic.  It would add an extra layer of cool to an already supercool establishment.
