Gene & Cheese

[NACHOCHEESE]

I saw Gene Ching a few days ago at the supermarket. Can someone tell me why he was loading up on Nacho Cheese? He had several of the large cans in his cart. I asked him if there was a party and he said "no, nacho cheese is essential for Kung Fu."
Are there benefits to the cheese?
:confused:

[GeneChing]

My dear young nachette, NACHOCHEESE, you think you've outed me, but you've actually entered one of my rings now and don't think for a second that I'm not keeping tally on you. I *own* all things nacho on this here forum. Ever wonder why this forum is nacho sauce colored? It's a Shaolin secret. Someday, when you're ready, I'll let you in on the secret pleasures of nacho sauce... when you're old enough... ;)

[NACHOCHEESE]

:D LMAO!!
If it is the Nacho Cheese that is fueling you...I'm on my way to the Mecca of all Nacho Cheese places....TACO BELL! I shall down it by the gallon and we'll see!!!!!

[brothernumber9]

There was a boy and his grandmother that lived at the bottom of a big hill.
At the top of the hill was the local cheeze/dairy store.
One day the cheese store was giving away free cheese to the community.
The grandmother sent the boy to the store to get some of the free cheese.
The boy started running up the hill to the store to get the cheese. About a quarter of the way up he had to stop to catch his breath. Then he started to jog up the hill. He had to stop halfway up to catch his breath again. Then he started to walk up the hill, sat on the curb 3/4 the way up to catch his breath again. A while later he finally made it up to the hill. As fate would have it, he was just in time to get the last bit of free cheese, a nice round loaf wrapped in shrink wrap. The boy stepped out of the store, still weary from racing up the hill, he sat on the curb and set down the cheese to regain his strength.
As he wasn't paying attention, the cheese rolled all the way down the hill until it bumped a man in the leg waiting at the bus stop. The man looked at the cheese, saw it was still edible and decided to take it home. When the man arrived home his wife asked him what he as holding, "cheese" he told her. "what kind of cheese is it?" she asked. "I think it's nacho cheese," he said, "because half the way home there was some boy running after the bus yelling 'IT'S NOT YO CHEESE! IT'S NOT YO CHEESE!!!"

[NACHOCHEESE]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! HILARIOUS!
Hmmm....so Gene was the little boy?
Thanks for the help, brother. :D

[GeneChing]

NACHOCHEESE, you need to check out the pink nacho ninja thread (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35945&page=1&pp=15). BTW, I have nacho-colored ninjette suits on order for my future legion of nacho ninjettes. What's your size again, NACHOCHEESE? ;)

[NACHOCHEESE]

Let me check my crystal ball.....I smell a nice round house kick coming your way today. :eek:
I'm an extra large! :p

[GeneChing]

Is that the result of "down it by the gallon"? And you're smelling balls to predict the future? Oh man, you're doing it all wrong. What you need is some private lessons in the ways of the mysterious nacho arts. Young nacho padawan, much to learn there is...

A side kick, eh? Tonight? Sure. Promises...All I ever get is promises.... :(

[Design Sifu]

smelling balls??!?

that's not nacho, that's Fromunda Cheese!!!

[BM2]

Actually, the benefits of an all cheese diet is currently being discussed on another thread. http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=37677

[Shaolinlueb]

what the hell. how did I miss this thread? :mad:

[GeneChing]

how did I miss this thread? You didn't. You're just late to the party. I was trying to remember what thread you posted your nacho ninjette on - do you remember SLL.

BM2 - loved that stool thread - how did I miss that thread? ;)

[Shaolinlueb]

you mean the picture that I made? i think it was a nacho ninjette thread. i still got the pic on my hard drive on my laptop i believe.

[GeneChing]

....and where was the nacho ninjette thread again? Was it this forum or the Shaolin forum? :confused:

[Shaolinlueb]

....and where was the nacho ninjette thread again? Was it this forum or the Shaolin forum? :confused:

I have no idea. Let me do a search.

[Shaolinlueb]

what the hey. ill just post it up. I know you want it gene. ;)

[herb ox]

somehow, I was hoping she'd really be smothered in nacho sauce.

I can't believe someone else beat me to the "not yo cheese" joke... learned that one summer when I was 9 years old.

fromunda cheese is naaaasty. right up there (down there) with head cheese and cheezy discharge. Yuk.

[NACHOCHEESE]

I think Gene should do an ad for "na-cho-cheese". I'd buy a shirt. Shoot, if he did it, I'd buy two or three. :p

[GeneChing]

Thanks, SLL, that's a classic. I'm still curious about the old thread though; it would be nice link to it from here.

And more promises from NACHOCHEESE...oh man... :rolleyes: Don't make me bring up the thongs... Hey, what was up with all those ninja women you were with last night? :eek: The really frightening thing is that I'm totally serious about the ninjas and thongs, and NACHOCHEESE knows it

HB: You had to bring up cheesy discharge, didn't ya? Now you know why you're in TCM land...

[Shaolinlueb]

thongs?

shiet as long as we arent talking about sports bra's.

[herb ox]

... personally, I try to make it a point to avoid thongs with anything cheesy on them! (other than a cheesy slogan or something... like "Lick Bush in 2008)

ox cheese

[GeneChing]

Don't even go there, Lueb!

[Shaolinlueb]

Don't even go there, Lueb!


awww why? :p jk

[NACHOCHEESE]

Genecheese, it was a secret ninjette class. We are waiting for our sponsored thongs and then they will get in the ring with you.....but no nacho cheese, I don't want you to whine about not being able to see the punch. :cool:

Leub, please go there...this is interesting. :p

[YuanZhideDiZhen]

you guys've almost got me ready for a link to the nude surfers' beach in pacific pala-cedes. :D

let me just crawl up out some fault junction and.... :eek:

[GeneChing]

Leub, please go there...this is interesting. Don't even go there, NC. You don't know the horrors. THE HORRORS!!! :eek:
The official Gene's Nacho Ninjette Demo Team Thongs are on back-order (we've had problems getting the color just right)

[herb ox]

so.... what's the story with the sports bras? what are they filled with a layer of nacho cheese for extra padding and shape with a lifelike feel?

c'mon Gene... give it up, man!

bubblin' on the top 100...

[GeneChing]

Don't tempt the Lueb. Just don't. If you unleash the horrors of the sports bra, there will be hell to pay. There's no going back once you've been exposed. Stop. Go back. Abandon hope all ye who enter here!

[Shaolinlueb]

hmmm lets see if i have the sports bra pick on my HD still. ;)




yep I still have it :D

[zuiquan1]

I know this is one giant inside joke but...what?

[NACHOCHEESE]

An inside joke about cheese or sports bras???

[Shaolinlueb]

do you wanty me to post it? im afraid if i do i will be banned and my subscription cancelled ;) :D

[NACHOCHEESE]

Oh, no!! Please don't do that. I think just the thought of doing it is enough torture for Gene. I don't know if he could handle that much excitement.
Thanks, Lueb for the offer. I wouldn't want you to risk your subscription...I'm sure they are going to have some sort of Nacho ad with Gene in the near future. :D I know you wouldn't want to miss that, I sure don't! :p Thanks for the help!

[NACHOCHEESE]

Besides...he may go Ninja on me. :eek:

[GeneChing]

Either you get nachos or your don't. It's that simple.

Posting the sports bra pic won't get you banned Lueb, and of course, we want to keep all our loyal subscribers (http://www.martialartsmart.net/19341.html). Now I'm thinking I should even encourage it, just to punish NC and all others who dare post on this neafrious thread. The sports bra is burned into the back of my retinas so seeing it again can't do any further harm. But for those virgin to SLL-sports-bra-kung-fu, there's no going back. If you see an attachment to SLL's next post, listen to me now and hear me later - do not download. :eek:

why not click the download button? its a funny picture. ;) all i need are some nacho cheese stains on it or something.

and another just cause I can. :p
edit*
I always thought gene was taller in person.

[GeneChing]

Why did I click that button again? It's sort of like when you have a sore in your mouth and you just can't resist sticking your tongue in it to see if it still hurts. ouch. It does. Funny tho, my memories of that pic was slightly different. Did you make a new one, SLL? Because two such pictures would be pure evil.

Also I look taller int he magazine because I'm usually standing next to short Chinese guys, not deviant Shaolinluebs...

[NACHOCHEESE]

OH MY GOODNESS!! LMAO!! :D :D :D :D :p :p :p :p

[Shaolinlueb]

no gene, that is the original sports bra pic. i had it on my hard drive all along :D

[GeneChing]

My memory of the image was that of a lone bra-ed SLL, not two. That can only mean that I was able to drink enough to erase the image of one from my memory. But now that I've seen it again, I remember again. Oh bother. Could someone bring me a drink?

[GeneChing]

nacho cheese jugs should always come in pairs... :eek:

[zuiquan1]

I new id regret reading this thread

[GeneChing]

Just for the record, when Gigi saw this thread, her first question to me was "why were you buying so much cheese?" She was totally serious.

[Shaolinlueb]

so gigi saw the pics too? hahahahahaha
im blushing now :o

[GeneChing]

She might not have got as far as the download. I'm sure she'd have said something by now if she did.

[Shaolinlueb]

She might not have got as far as the download. I'm sure she'd have said something by now if she did.

secretly pull it up on her desktop one day gene. but dont blame me if she starts swearing at you in a language you dont understand.

HA!HA!HA!HA! I can picture that! I wish I was there! :D :p

[GeneChing]

if she starts swearing at you in a language you dont understand. Actually, I understand Taiwanese cussing - it's the Cantonese cussing that I can't follow...the funny thing is that with a Taiwan accent, occasionally normal words sound like swear words - shirt sometimes comes out like ****, and such. Needless to say, it adds to the general hilarity at the office here....

[grlyncher99]

Nacho Cheese? Ninjettes? Braed men? Would it be to much to ask to have some sort of discussion that might be germaine to the topic of Kung Fu?

[David Jamieson]

hmmmm, well, let's see now, you ressurect a thread that's been dead for a year and then complain it's not about kungfu.

It's totally about Kungfu, Nacho cheese kungfu that is.

beware the limburger fist though.

[grlyncher99]

Somebody posted the link on my forum as if it were new. I won't mention any names but it rhymes with GeneChing. I didn't check it's sell by date. I should have know by the poster it was well beyond it's.

Regardless, Kung Fu, right?

[GeneChing]

First the return of the Squirrel (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4619&page=13) and now the return of the cheese? I wonder if this is some sort of omen...

[grlyncher99]

Next thing you know, there will be an expose on the Ninjettes and retro Got qi shirts.

You should blame Gene, too. It should be a given.

As for cheese, whatever happened to CheezWiz?

[GeneChing]

We need our nacho ninjettes to be on the spicy side. Muy Caliente!

[GeneChing]

I just couldn't pass this article up. It's not nacho ninjettes by any stretch.

Gravy fight and food fest a huge success (http://www.thisislancashire.co.uk/news/headlines/display.var.1675010.0.karate_experts_named_world_g ravy_wrestling_champions.php)
By Sally Henfield

A MARTIAL arts student was crowned world gravy wrestling champion and said: "I only won because I could stand up!"

Sumo warriors, martial arts specialists and a chef were among competitors at the first international championships, organised as part of Pennine Lancashire Festival of Food and Culture.

And after 40 minutes of gruelling grappling in the cold mix of meat juices, chopped up vegetables and cornflour, Ian Marsden and two friends emerged world champions.

The members of the Tower Shukokai Karate Club, based in Darwen, wowed the judges with their wrestling skills - but the final vote came from the crowd who cheered them on to victory.

The wrestling ring was set up in Sainsbury's car park in Darwen, where there were a series of three minutes bouts, with points awarded for pinning opponents to the floor.

However, the scores were equal at the end of the competition so the final decision was made using applause levels generated by the spectators.

The new - and first ever - world champions of gravy wrestling were Ian, Martin Skipper and the mysterious 'Super Roy the Darwen Destroyer.' Team leader Ian, of Redearth Road, Darwen, said: "It feels great to be a world champion. I don't think our karate skills did us any favours.

"We were only any good because we seemed to be able to stand up a bit longer than the others."

The event raised over £500 for the East Lancashire Hospice, Blackburn. Event organiser Jackie Livesey said: "It was fantastic - much better than we had hoped.

Despite being touted as an international competition - and even gaining coverage in the Bangkok Times - the furthest a competitor travelled was from Leicester.

Joel Hicks, 28, who dressed as a chef, said: "I go up and down the country taking part in wacky sports for charity. This was great fun, well worth the drive."

Other events at the festival have included a 1940s Hits from the Blitz dinner dance, an evening with celebrity cook Keith Floyd, guided walks looking for tasty treats in hedgerows; cooking demonstrations; mushroom hunts; a chef cricket match and a waiters' race. For the first time, events will continue through to October.

Mrs Livesey said: "The festival has been a huge success - but we will be looking to bigger and better things next year.

"All of our events are aimed at showing people the delights of food and the fun that can be had with food."

All the ninjettes are wearing cheese-colored armbands. This is a very sad day.
Carmen Rocha dies at 77; waitress credited with introducing L.A. to nachos (http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-rocha17-2008oct17,0,6044321.story)
By Mary Rourke, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
October 17, 2008
Carmen Rocha, a waitress at El Cholo Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles for many years who is credited with introducing the city to nachos, the now-ubiquitous appetizer of tortilla chips, cheese and jalapeño peppers, has died. She was 77.

Rocha, whose photograph appears on one of the restaurant's souvenir postcards, died at her home in Los Angeles on Oct. 9. The cause was cancer, according to Rand Salisbury, whose family owns El Cholo.

She started working at the restaurant in 1959 and won a following with her warm, outgoing personality. "Carmen was wonderful, to me and to everybody," actor Jack Nicholson, a longtime regular at El Cholo, said this week. "It's a community loss," he said of her death.

For a special treat Rocha sometimes went into the kitchen and made her customers an order of nachos, an item not included on the menu. She followed a recipe she learned in San Antonio, where she grew up, layering tortilla wedges, shredded cheddar cheese and slices of jalapeño pepper, warming the dish in the oven. Before long she had requests from all over the dining room and her nachos were added to the menu.

"Carmen Rocha introduced an iconic dish and helped popularize it," said Merrill Shindler, who wrote "El Cholo Cookbook: Recipes and Lore From California's Best Loved Mexican Kitchen" in 1998. "Now, everybody eats nachos. If they were called 'Carmens,' not nachos, her name would be remembered forever."

Rocha worked at the original El Cholo on Western Avenue for close to 40 years and often socialized with her co-workers on Sundays when they stopped by her family's weekly open house. "She was a very loving person," said Linda Mendez, a waitress and longtime friend of Rocha. "People came to Carmen and asked her advice, even her customers did. You could talk to her."

Before Rocha retired in the 1990s, the restaurant lounge was renamed "Carmen's Cantina." By then she had been through knee surgery and was working "with a cane in one hand and a pitcher of margaritas in the other," Salisbury said.

"She would have liked to keep working, but she had to quit for health reasons."

Born Carmen Salas on Oct. 6, 1931, in Seguin, Texas, she moved to San Antonio with her parents when she was young. She married Rudy Rocha in the 1940s and they moved to Los Angeles in 1959. The couple had six children before they divorced. Several later moved into houses down the street from their mother.

In November 1970, Rocha was at work when she learned that one of her three sons, Robert, who was in the Army, had been killed in Vietnam. She fainted and later couldn't stop crying, but the next day she was back at work. "People asked her, 'What are you doing here?' and Carmen told them, 'This restaurant is my home,' " Ron Salisbury, president of El Cholo and Rand's father, recalled this week.

When her son's name was inscribed on the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., his middle name was spelled incorrectly. Instead of Robert Salas Rocha, it was written Robert Silas Rocha.

Carmen and her family spent close to 20 years trying to get the mistake fixed. Their first two appeals to the government were turned down. They were told that only "gross misspellings" were corrected. A third try brought change. The name of Rocha's son was re-inscribed. She and family members went to see it, as guests of the government, for a Memorial Day ceremony.

"If someone died for their country, he should at least have his name spelled correctly," Rocha said in a 2002 interview with The Times.

In recent years, Rocha worked as a volunteer at Pasadena City Hall, took computer training classes for senior citizens and kept up her Sunday open house parties.

Rocha is survived by five children, 14 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
