Found this about honey bees and how their function changes by age.
Shorter life than I imagined too.

She probably wanted it to make sure when she goes through her Junk Mail folder
she can make sure the blocks the correct idiot that keeps e-mailing her.

I doubt an girl from the orthodox Jewish faith wants a relationship with a
bi-polar, horn tooting, boarding house owner who lusts after every female
that crosses the threshold of his rainbow palace.

Don't be so sure!! I'm very charming! I treat women with respect and kindness! Everyone tends to respond positively when approached this way, or so I have found.

I'm sure she's been searching high and low for a bi-polar gentile boyfriend.
Notice, I said gentile and not gentle.

My banker was happy to see me too. He even got us both a bottle of
water. We talked for about a half hour.

Wow! Thanks for the news; everyone is very interested. Hope you get
laid kosher style very soon.
 
You should consider making reports about your bowel movements too.
Not daily, but a weekly digest would be good.

Of what? Jealous because I'm not bi-polar? Jealous because I'm not a boarding
house owner? Jealous because I *might* go into the bank once a year?? Just
what do I have to be jealous of??? I anticipate your enlightening answer.

Would that be a digest of digestion? Photos would help.

Last week I bought a bag 'Frontier Soups' 11 bean soup mix and it's simmering
away on the stove as I write. The bag came with a recipe which I've followed
and even though not completely done, it's shaping up to be quite good.
 
Their recipe called for a ham hock, 29 ounce can of Italian plum tomatoes, cut
up; diced onions, celery, bell pepper, garlic, and 12 cups of water. All I had was the large can of petite diced tomatoes so in it went after simmering for
three hours. At that time I fished out the two sliced ham hocks, and added the other requirements along with two 8-ounce packages of diced ham and one 8-ounce package of cubed ham. I thought I had grabbed two packages of cubed ham but no
matter; the ham hock went back in too, after picking off the fat and discarding
the bones.
 
The recipe on the package called for smoked Kielbasa and chicken breast
pieces but I decided to stick with all ham. Package proclaims it to be gluten
free for those interested.

Sounds good. I've used similar mixes like that with good results.
Sure, you can make good soups, but you'd not put together 11 different
beans for one so these mixes are handy for that.

Also posted in rec.food.baking, I'll also post this here.
 
In the interest of furthering the neverending discussion of how best
to make cornbread, I offer the following thoughts. Start as as folows.
 
4Tbs. Melted Butter, Margarine or Vegtable Oil (In that order of
preference)
1 Cup Cornmeal
1 Cup A/P Flour
Sugar--Anywher from nothing, if you're a True Southener, up to 1 Cup,
if you're A Damned Yankee. (My taste is about 1/4 Cup.)
1 Tbs. Baking Powder
1 Tsp. Baking Soda
1-2 Tsp. Salt
1/8-1/4 Tsp Nutmeg (*Yes! This matters!*)
1.5 Cups Buttermilk (strongly prefferable) or regular Milk
1-2 Eggs*
 
Grease a 10" skillet, and place it in a cold oven, and then pre-heat
it to 400 degrees Farenheight.
 
Mix the ingredients together (withold wet ingredients for as long as
possible), and pour into the fully heated skillet. Then bake at 400
degrees for 18-20 (posaibly 22) minutes.
 
* I've heard suggestions of 3 eggs. But I think that hurts the flavor.
I think that 3 eggs doesn't improve the rise (which it does), enough
to offset the detriment to flavor.
 
**With this said? I welcome vigorous debate. Have a quibble with this?
Feel free to say so. *EXCEPT* for one point. The Northern/Southern
thing. I.E.--sugar. That's a Holy War that just can not be resolved by
discussion. So let's not even try. ;)

Not needed unless you like cake-y cornbread.

Good grief, who in hell would put that much sugar in cornbread? I know, some-
one who doesn't have a clue about cooking this staple.

> 1-2 Tsp. Salt
 
None of these are needed if you buy self-rising cornmeal.

No, hell no, not ever. This has me strongly suspecting you are nothing but
a troll.

Either one is fine.

Mix dry ingredients 'for as long as possible.' Why? Should we be mixing for
10 minutes, an hour, all day??

Troll. Only a troll will show up, post a questionable recipe, and then wants
to 'debate' the merits of his *recipe.*

I can handle anything but the bourbon, but I keep trying every couple
of years. One day, I'll like it.

I'll take the vodka in juice, with plenty of juice. Lime, for
preference.

I like Scotch.... and Irish. I like rye only with vermouth. Vodka is
nice knocked back ice cold. Rum and gin are also good sipping liquors.

You're the only self-appointed 'obituary hotline.' I don't know about others
that frequent this group, but I don't feel the need to rush in with death
notices.
