Does anybody remember Johnny Castaway?

Post by impulse() »

If you do, please give a bow as you know Johnny deserves it.

For anybody that doesn't, please take the time to visit the web page. Johnny Castaway is a Windows screensaver created sometime when I was at school, several years ago. It popped in my head a few minutes ago that the screensaver existed and I realise looking back now how it always was and always will be the number 1 screen saver. I'm not a fan of screen savers and never have been but Johnny likes you make screen savers like brown sauce makes you like sausage sandwiches.

You haven't heard of brown sauce? You haven't lived!

According to wiki "A1 Steak Sauce" is the same stuff on the other side of the pond.

Brown Sauce (and thus A1) is for bacon (or sausage) sarnies and fryups. Mustard and/or horseradish is for steak, you heathens.

I guess I'm eating something else because steak goes with steak. No sauce needed. Maybe some pepper a bit of salt... but no sauce.

I'll have to differ on that. A1 has too much acid, coloring the flavor of buttery delicious meat.

Blasphemers!

A Blob of proper English mustard, and/or proper Horseradish is as necessarily a part of a Steak meal as is a chunk of cow! (Take your Dijon and leave!)

Also, Sarnie is slang for Sandwhich.
