Me, Dium Rare!


If there was actually a latin phrase, "dium rare" - perhaps meaning "a day unlike most others" - then I'd have a pretty good pun for a title. There isn't, however, so all it is is dumb wordplay.

Speaking of dumb wordplay, David McMahon made the hideous mistake of having me for the subject of his "Sunday Roast" this week.

(Now do you get it? Me, Dium Rare? Medium Rare? Har-De-Har-Har.)

You can get more than enough of me for anyone's tastes over at David's place. Go there NOW. David is the best-selling author of Vegemite Vindaloo, a championship-level punster, and a gentleman. Not a single one of those things can be said of me, so you should probably go to his site for his sake, not mine.

Seriously. There's nothing more to see here, folks. Move along.

I'll be back in this space tomorrow with some news regarding an interesting charitable event, one which will - if you're in the Boston area, or likely to be at the beginning of June - give you not only the opportunity to play some poker and meet some Red Sox, but (saints preserve us) meet me and MY WIFE.

Soon, with more.

Lime finds it funny that I am roast #69. This is why I love Lime.

Granny on the Web said...

I have to go and lie down now after looking at your picture of gore!
I can't bear meat in my mouth! nothing to do with animal slaughter etc. Just the look, smell, and texture of meat.
So, enjoy what you like and I will enjoy my likes. Fair enough?
Love you really...
Granny

Since I'm too smart for my shirt - I read the title and knew it was a play on words in "Latin." I know, I know, it is really a burden being this brilliant.

Jeni said...

Actually, Suldog, I think you are wrong about yourself not being any of the things that David is -after all, you are a Gentleman and a Scholar -albeit a bit of a racy one, a bit of a crazy one too at times. But then again, that's all good when it comes out in your posts, cause so many of us love 'em and expect the "me diem rare" from you!
And I really loved your roast with David.

MVD said...

After enjoying the roast ... Is it selfish to wish that your early blog feedback was so atrocious that you did start that church?

As for the porno career, well, I'd leave that navigation to your female fans.

Debbie said...

I did spot you over at David's. Great interview.

Sniffles and Smiles said...

Make no m'steak about it!!!! You deserved that roast!!! LOL...But seriously, as one of your fans, I was thrilled to see you so recognized at David's blog! Congrats again! ~Janine

Jenn said...

Off to check it out now but curious...did you finally muster up courage to talk to Yooooooouk at the restaurant or is this from a completely different source, like networking at the auction or something? Can't wait to read up on the details!

Hilary said...

Puns - I love. As for Latin.. omnia mihi lingua Graeca sunt. ;)

Jazz said...

I'm a fan of David's so your news is all old Sul.

Rhea said...

Great headline. There just aren't enough Latin puns anymore.

GreenJello said...

I liked your interview over at David's. :) Very.... you.

And you don't get pictures. Sorry.

Fat, frumpy and fifty... said...

been there , seen it, and written about you!!!

I love sundays over at David's!!

Buck said...

Well done, over there. (well done? I can't believe I actually typed that.)

Sarah said...

What a lovely interview you gave.

Do naked pictures really help increase your blog traffic?

Ananda girl said...

I enjoyed the interview at David's this weekend and I do like his wit, photos and word play. I was thrilled to see your face there! But I gotta tell ya, Suldog... I'm much more at home here. I love what you do, so keep doing it.

Eddie Bluelights said...

"Sir Loin", Well done!
Here's toasting your Sunday roasting!
Glad I had a 'steak' in reading it!
A 'rare' treat! ~ Eddie

Karen said...

Great interview... and yes, I agree "A Day in the Life" is your best post... well, at least one of them :)

Lola said...

Har-de-har-har is one of my favorite written expressions.

I was right about hanging out here, it IS good.

Ciao bisteccone (Italian for 'tall beefy man' - compliment)

Chris @ Maugeritaville said...

Geez, a chance to meet some Red Sox? What do the WINNERS get? I pity YOUR WIFE if she has to deal with both you and Jonathan Papelbum in the same day.

Ah, just kidding. About you, not Papelbum.

Theresa said...

Read the roast at David's. It was enightening. Is it too late to start that church?

Chris Stone said...

lol! I've always had problems with the correct spelling of "lose." "Win," however, is no problem!

would naked pics of my cat licking her butt suffice?

Michelle H. said...

Loved the interview! You are such a punny man!

Gaston Studio said...

That roast was what brought me to your blog and I love it. Moving along now...

Carolina said...

I've posted naked photos of me. Well, of part of me.
I have to warn you however. Don't be eating or drinking when you pop over to my place for a little peak at my nakedness ;-)http://brinkbeestinenglish.blogspot.com/2009/05/im-feeling-blue.html
Great interview. So....uhm....YOU.

Congrats ;-)

A Woman Of No Importance said...

I am so going over to David's now, to check out your meat and two veg ;)

Ericka said...

a rare bit of writing there.

Janet said...

I too am snickering over your assigned number. But unlike Granny, you can bring that roast to my house anytime. We won't have to share it with anyone in my family!
