But I don't understand why you avoid the use of the name: some members of the family do themselves proud. Then again, Michael Duff, author of The World in Eleven Dimensions: Supergravity, Supermembranes and M-theory, is not a bullshitter like http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/8471610085138506411/?src=hsr#241446 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:11:34 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/8471610085138506411/?src=hsrs#241446 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/8471610085138506411/?src=hsrs#241446 Well David all I can say is that if this country ever sinks low enough to elect someone of Moosewoman's caliber to the White House it will not be my country anymore. I may have to find me a small hold in the Peaks or Lake District and go back to my roots and there is always Ireland. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/6029396257836290547/?src=hsr#241445 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:09:00 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/6029396257836290547/?src=hsrs#241445 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/6029396257836290547/?src=hsrs#241445 Or perhaps...we should just get rid of Reid first and get someone in there with cojones?! http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsr#241443 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:42:19 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241443 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241443 Oh dear, has the cold war started again? Steve, in the Dervish dance he adopts whilst in a major hissy-fit, has reverted to using my surname, it does not bode well. Not that I expected too much in the way of thanks for pointing out just one blindingly obvious way in which hard-up people can buy cheap but nourishing food for a few dollars. But hey, when you're a real fat waddley, McDonalds is http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/8471610085138506411/?src=hsr#241442 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:38:05 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/8471610085138506411/?src=hsrs#241442 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/8471610085138506411/?src=hsrs#241442 Yes that is good but I shall enjoy it all the more when, in 3 years time, she ousts the present Marxist president of the USA and returns America to the country I admire. Hopefully, that will be before you all go bankrupt. (And before Steve goes into a hissy fit, much the same applies over here with our socialists but at least we get the chance to boot them out in a few months.) http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/2427473569841040951/?src=hsr#241431 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 12:01:13 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/2427473569841040951/?src=hsrs#241431 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/2427473569841040951/?src=hsrs#241431 Sounds delish! I make a similar potato, fennel and onion soup with caraway seeds (from Moosewood Cookbook). Water, no broth, but the sauteed onions are all you need for a rich, full-bodied flavor. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsr#241429 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 11:46:19 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241429 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241429 Duff, you are incorrigibly convinced that in any given circumstance your behavior is superior to that of anyone else in that same circumstance. Forgive me if I doubt your pretense of superiority. If your ideas were flawless and well-researched... and not based on Ronald-Reagan-like personal anecdotes... your arrogance alone would still serve to block anyone's inclination to believe you. For the... http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsr#241427 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:35:34 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241427 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241427 I don't know prices 'over there' but 'over here' you can buy a reasonably sized battery chicken for £2 - Google tells me that is $3.3. If, like my old mum used to do, you wait until early evening on Saturday you can buy fresh veg and fruit from supermarkets cut price because they want to clear the shelves. The 'Memsahib' and I can get **at least** two meals *each* from a chicken and a very tasty... http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/7581547656272709588/?src=hsr#241425 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 20:34:53 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/7581547656272709588/?src=hsrs#241425 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/7581547656272709588/?src=hsrs#241425 Senator Tom Coburn Makes me do a sloburn.   - SB the YDD http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsr#241424 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 20:32:21 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241424 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/fallenmonk/5392696531214931872/?src=hsrs#241424 Heh. Back in the early days of my Windows programming career, I used to quip that I was full of gas but running on NT. <rim_shot />
