RE: is man always complicated?

Did you meet him or did you write to him? They are different. One is real one may be. Know the difference.

Beef brisket

As requested, here is how the meat came out. Yes looks fatty, but really I trimmed quite a bit off before the cook process began.



The veggies after straining the broth.



My first plate..



Hot, buttered, Blueberry cupcakes for desert, Orange Juice and coffee because I will be at work and working in 2 hours.

Beef brisket

Guadal, since I have the sniffles, I hope it has some anti-biotics and since I am too skinny a little snip of steroid too, and to make me grow big, go ahead tweak my DNA.

Beef brisket

Butcher shops have been more or less illegal in the US since the 1960s. The FDA standards written back then were designed to close all the small mom and pop meat and fish stores so as to clear the way for the mega food sellers. Any shop selling anything that may reasonably be expected to cross a state line, or be carried across by a consumer must have some very expensive equipment, keep detailed records, have inspectors, supply offices for the inspectors and 1,000 other things that essentially slammed the doors of small corner store shops. I miss them too.

RE: What I look for in a womens face

Gotta love her neat and tidy face with such lovely teeth.. The kind you run from.

RE: Cow Pats

Shucks, mine doesn't miss them, he rolls in them so I spend much time with the hose before letting him back in the house.

RE: Osaka - Okawa - Nagoya

Yes, first trips made alone to a new country often cause nervousness and that's normal. Be careful, be safe, check in with close friends or family now and then to let them know where you will be, and above all see some places and have some fun while there.

I like lavender visually, but it grows more or less naturally outside my windows, so sometimes I close the windows to get a break from the smell. :)

I am intrigued by the sink design. A touch of nostalgia dating to wash bowl days, but a sink instead. Sigh, some poor cleaner has to clean both the inside and the outside every day while with a sink inset into the cabinet shelf, no one would care about the outside of the sink. Still, that's retro cool.

RE: Thoughts of a Normal Guy

Nice, it is CS. Several folks got the triple yesterday. Years ago and this week the bug caused occasional doubles. Looks like while working on something to fix it doubles became triples.

RE: How long is a reasonable time before introducing s

Why so soon? Why not 6 months after the marriage?

RE: OUR PLANET

No it is the people. Too many of them prevents the planet from healing and rebuilding. Absolutely I am pro reducing the population. No, not by country, by entirety. Praying for a nearby star to send us a good gamma ray burst for an hour, that'll do it.

RE: BY, BY,

I see it is not the first time you have written this kind of topic.

RE: Influx of Ebola Cases, One of Histories Deadliest

UN not US

RE: Just to say Thank you!

Gracias Amiga

RE: Nice thursday!

Good morning Teresa. My that is a lovely repast. May I have a plate and a cup? Thanks.

RE: Why Im Here?

Why are any of us here? I thought the comet killed us all back in '79?

RE: GER

Noting also that very few if any of his blogs seem to have been designed to attract females. Lot of complaints about girls blocking his emails (interesting, not sure I have ever experienced that) and that speaks. Also several previous blogs about leaving CS because no connection has been made. So maybe the problem is not with the Irish ladies, but in the approach?

RE: Meet Duke & Dizzly

Zeurich = You gain 20 hit points in my eyes for making the phone call and adopting them.

Sadly there are many humans who wouldn't have done either good deed (but still believe God will put them in Heaven, LoL to that). Here in the US what was done would be a crime. In days of yore when our borders were fully open we had monsters that would put cats and kittens in pillowcases and drown them in the river. The same folks treated humans the same way and many were also the folks who committed crimes. Somewhere around 1900 America realized having folks with those mentalities towards animals didn't help us as a country and we passed animal cruelty laws. I am pretty pleased to report putting multiple cats in a sealed plastic bag and disposing of it so they would die a slow suffocation death here in America would be considered a crime and some police effort would probably be spent to figure out which trash bag, what if any trash in it would identify the household (mail stickers, prescription bottles with lapels, etc.) and whose fingerprints are on the bag and a criminal prosecution would probably commence. One thing I do know as a guy who used to lock deserving individuals up is sometimes dead small animals at someone's hands was just the tip of the iceberg regarding that person's mental state and a little more digging sometimes turned up other legal issues deserving of followup. You may have a neighbor that neighborhood would be much better off without having him or her.

Give the little fellas some time. One is still new to the world and thinks all humans are monsters, if she even connects the smothering and trapped with the person, while the other one knows now humans are dangerous and the 4,000+ years we have spent building trust relationships with cats maybe should be discounted. So keep feeding them and speaking softly and they should grow friendlier in time as they relax around you.

RE: OUR PLANET

Reduce the population to not more than half a billion as a necessary first step with govt managed birth control. Currently our species birth rate (according to WHO and other sites) is literally more than twice our death rate. However, Earth's resources are finite and constantly diminishing. So if our focus is saving the Earth ecologically, the people need to go.

RE: just wondering

Unfortunately this is a dating site and that means it very much IS a shopping mall. Those of us in here are presumably looking for a potential partner for life. One selects the best they can. Hopefully the one they are interested in thinks they too meet a standard. It is in truth a competitive environment for those seeking a mate. The more you can claim or show off appropriately the more folks will look. Do I wish I could claim Doctorates degrees in my profile? Sure. But I don't because there are none. However someone out there may get Miss Right who passed on by my profile because of that one fact, when the one she sent an email too has the kind of education she seeks. So it IS competitive (just like everything else in life is) and it IS shopping, and maybe if one is uncomfortable with that they should reconsider how they are playing the game of life and what are their goals.

Cheese

Mimi, no but it may make you plump as some cheeses are high in both protein and fat.

KN, do you mean GI as in soldier or something else?

Cheese

Pizza Hut decades ago had something called a Cheese Napoli. I think it was 5 different cheeses baked in a pie crust. Very good and fattening too no doubt.

Cheese

KN, a big 10-4 on Mozz, tomato, basil with perhaps a little olive oil. Also good I find is stewed stuffed sweet peppers, stuffed with feta cheeses, again a little basil, some diced tomato, etc.

RE: just wondering

Well some women are both.
Beyond that, usually what is meant is we want someone we can talk to about the world and events in it beyond her Facebook page and what happened or who DJ'd at the Rave she went to last week. without her giving you a blank look and saying, huh? I work with one of the Huh? type who is blank eyed about everything from payroll issues to who is President. Yes, sadly she is indeed blond haired.

Cheese

Cheese with tomato is also good, but Kal, who seems to have vanished virtually took mine, then turned invisible. Sigh.

RE: just wondering

Why can't she be both?

RE: Intellectualism, Intelligence & Marriage

That question is so loaded, no married person dares to even think of answering it..

RE: Finally

Nicefeet, "These days none of that happens anymore because they have learnt the lesson . " Dream on... It still goes on. A bribe here, a bribe there, swapped out election results, fatal car accidents of key folk, even unexpected fatal medical conditions, etc. All of the major players do stuff like that daily.

LouLou you raise a very good point. I think historically we ignored wholesale slaughter in places non-white and also lacking mineral resources and oil. We attended the break up of Yugoslavia thing only because it involved Europeans and the media withheld from the general public that it was about non-Muslims ridding their area of European Muslims. Conversely in Rwanda and Sri Lanka and Burma (or whatever the new name is) we ignored it until it was mostly all over. Seen many Tamil Tigers lately? How about Kachin or Karin people? How many soldiers did we send to Congo? Just under one hundred. How many have left now the media has moved on? And the killings continue and Western media ignores it. But in a region where there is oil? Now that gets some attention.

In truth I suspect that if we pull back on the Isis thing one of the other super powers or strong countries would probably fill the vacuum once they realized we would force them to. Don't know if it would be China, India or whoever, but more than just the US buys oil and Issa may not wish to sell oil to non-Muslim countries once it controls enough of the mid-East oil and with both India and China having huge import market, they might take action on their own if a cut off was threatened. But now they don't have to because again the US wants to be the first to test out new weapons and we love oil.

Cheese

Hi Angel. You may wish to google Casu Marzu before saying that.

RE: prepay power

We don;t have that here in the US to my knowledge. I just get bills for how much I used. How does pre pay work?

RE: "What do you like or hate from your boss?"

Quitting working for them emphasis is on hating. Dislikes I can tolerate. Humming for instance. I once had great boss who was perfect, except he hummed to himself almost constantly. Very distracting after a few hours and I was often pleased when one or another of us went home.
