Why is Jack talking about Jack in Jackrd person?

I'm not Jack, I'm Mad.

I'm not Jack, I'm Mad.

Why is Mad talking about Jack behind his back?

Just put on the summer-tires on the car last Friday. Today it is snowing.

My first attempt at roasting a chicken. After throwing insults and slurs at it I tried the oven. The oven roasted it better than I did. I guess it's a better comedian.

You can't tell the onions from the potatoes.

I have dressing in the oven. My first attempt at making dressing also. Next will be the giblet gravy.

I was planning on doing that tomorrow. Might have to wait another week...

Actually, the whole third-person thing started as an occasional oblique Fight Club reference (i.e., "I am Jack's bleeding wallet") on the Reaper forum and eventually the "I'm not Jack, I'm Mad" joke... Then a number of years ago I was travelling to the local Ren Faire with one of the members of my local painting group when I made a reference to my hat (the same one from my avatar), and the lady in question (despite having known me for six months) said, somewhat surprised, "Oh... you're wearing a hat..."
Somehow, having never seen me without the hat, she had never actually processed the idea that I was wearing one, lol.
Which generated the line in my Reaper forum signature, "Oh, not you... We named the hat Jack. "

Then they’re probably BOTH going to be tasty!

Check the dressing out.

I sent the pic to my mom and she asked what the white stuff was. It's the onion. She said she normally cuts hers smaller. I think it turned out well though.

I’m using green onions more and more as a supplement to or replacement for other onions in dishes these days. Also as a garnish/topping. They’re a little hassle to work with, but the herbal punch and oniony bite they bring are excellent.

I like green onions also. I think it would have been good in the dressing.
