Screw you old hag. You could have just stopped after "I was stupid"
because you were an idiot do expect that I should stay at the clinic and
wait for a completer stranger who needed a ride home and someone to stay
with her. I was so fucking selfish that I had prioritized my wife's much
more serious condition and care needs.

Unlike Dave, my kids have been brought up to contribute and if they
were not 3 or 4 thousand miles away, they would have done it.

I added minced garlic and onion to the potato pancakes. :)

My all time favorite steak dinner is:
- steak medium rare (onions and mushrooms too if available)
- shoestring fries deep fried
- loose corn with butter
- piece or two of buttered bread

As did we. We also had access to my father's workshop, lumber and
various scraps of steel and copper and made toy guns

When I was a kid, all boys played "Army." Those war hero guys
in the movies were our heros.
Many young years too. Our fake guns looked real and us lucky
kids got REAL army surplus equipment for Christmas.
 
I still have a few surplus things. Either from WW2 or maybe
the Korean war.
 
- a weird helmet with ear flaps. I suspect that was for
soldiers firing large cannons.
 
- also a cool ammo belt and a canteen hooked on it.
 
None of those war games turned us into criminals.

Yeah, you've been there. It's very annoying to me right now.
Best thing after finally getting a haircut is how quick and
easy it is to wash your hair.
 
I did have very long hair back in the early 1970's. I'll
have to find an old pic to post.

That reminds me of the old 3 men light a cigarette during a war.
First man lights a cigarette...the sniper spots it
2nd man uses the match to light his...sniper aims
3rd man uses the match and sniper fires
 
Don't forget too, the second mouse gets the cheese.
That's Ed's theory.

Yep! From what I understand there were quite a few Scottish settlers in
Canada. My maternal grandparents didn't come to North America via Ellis
Island (New York). They had tickets to Canada. I still have some
distant relatives in Ontario.

Reminds me of the old "Shake and Bake."
 
Remember that old commercial with the little girl with a
heavy southern accent?
 
Father: Boy, this chicken sure tastes good.
Little girl: It's Shake-n-Bake, Daddy, and I hay-elped.

"Old Bay" seasoning and vinegar/water are your friends for
cooking
crab and shrimp. Then make your recipes of either.

Nothing wrong with Shake and Bake :)

It was an annoying line but dang, it was effective. Everyone remembers it.

Au contraire. That is his nickname. His parent named him Cornelius. That
was nasty.

True enough. Too much water will kill you.

I like those and buy occasionally. Use chicken broth next time.
It's better than using plain water.

All food is better with wine, imo. ;)

If you did drink wine, you would love all your neighbor's
free meals slathered in bbq sauce, I suspect. ;)

I think he should consider going 100% nitrogen and saving
our atmosphere. ;)

Wrong math, Carol.
$20 per hour and full time equals $800 per week.
$800 X 52 weeks = $41.6K per year.
 
That's a decent income. Think about all the many people that
work retail at half that amount.

As a young kid, I used to eat them occasionally. Sour but tasty.

Nah...won't happen. Cheeseburgers are cooked. Kills virus in raw
meat. :)
