Right. Rump-roast assphault. Not beyond conception, is it. Didja know asphalt paving was invented in Portland, not a mile from our first house?

The road first paved is still there: MacAdam Avenue.

(No shit. But like, who would make that up.)

I remember the first all beef hot dogs were introduced around Galesburg, a pork producing center. Now pork is thought of as a lean meat.
