BACON!
16 years ago
General
I was dreaming wakefully, linking fancy unto fancy, and conjured a stray thought both odd and amusing:
Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626) is considered a pioneer of the scientific method. Due to his various appointments to positions of rank (Viscount, Attorney General, Solicitor), he was sometimes referred to as "Lord". He was a philosopher, a lawyer, a scientist, and was knighted in 1603 (hence the "Sir").
Through the twisted, kaleidoscopic eye of modern-day geek culture, this makes Francis Bacon one of the coolest (and tastiest?) men who ever lived... simply because of how much fun we can have with his surname.
He has graciously provided us with:
Baconian Method
Bacon Knight
Lord Bacon
The Philosophy of Bacon
Bacon Science
The Law of Bacon
Bonus: His mother's maiden name was "Cooke"
XD

"You are cordially invited to Cooke Bacon..."
and get breakfast. Cause I can't think of anywhere else to run off to.
Wait... Cake + Bacon... would that make it Cakon? Or maybe just Bake?
FA needs a bacon emoticon.
