How to make Bacon (not just bringing it home)

Ever wonder how bacon came to be? While this post won't answer how or when or where in history bacon came to be, I found this transcript from Alton Brown's show Good Eats on how to make your own bacon. Now It's not as funny as watching the show but he does give some great information, a bit of history, and his straight forward instructions for making bacon. Maybe some year I'll make my own bacon for bacon day.
