@SweetTexanRose 22 years later, I was also mostly cut from Transformers: Dark of the Moon. I'm the guy in the black suit. Director Michael Bay is in all white.

I like to think I was playing the same character in both films.

@OrneRoger @sciencegirl Here is what the Farrell's Pig's Trough really looked like. The photo you used is from a website that uses a very wrong recipe of the Trough. And it was never free if you ate the whole thing.

@MacDoug1 @bestofStarTrek The name was a play on “In Search Of,” a tv show hosted by Nimoy in the late 70s and early 80s.

@EllenDickhaus @4thOfJuly365 My book on the early years of Farrell's Ice Cream Parlours in Oregon is available online from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and most independent booksellers.

Take a sundae drive to Farrell’s!

@bbellina @HAPIOKI The Farrell's Pig's Trough was two banana splits served in a wooden trough.

I worked at Farrell's and was the owner of the very last Farrell's. I also wrote a book about the creation of Farrell's in Oregon.

@ericthomaschu Glad you made it to that location. Despite being an owner of the Brea location and an investor in thr brand, I never made it to Sacramento.

Hopefully, we can bring Farrell's back again.

@ericthomaschu I break out a Zoo bowl, plastic Zoo picks from the 1960s, and the stretcher, and run it around my house.

@Starbuckme11 @hollywoodscifi I did. And it was spectacular.
