I didn't cook them. They were boring. I would likely have smeared some
piri piri on them.

Thanks very much, Gary!
 
He has no idea what nice people are!
 
I think it is time to ignore him and just enjoy those who are nice and
decent!!!

We finished the slat wall today. Rolled the laminated MDF out of the
shop on a big work table and routered the snot out of it.
 
When we're fresh, we'll hang it.

The manufacturers are going to be in a pickle because there won't be
anyone working to earn money to by the goods and services provided by
those robots. Governments are already getting antsy about the loss of
income taxes.

That was certainly not my experience with unions in the 70s. They were
actively pushing for women's rights.
 
My bigger concern at the time was the idiocy of the membership. People
were getting big raises back then. Our union was pushing for a 12%
raise. The company had offered 11.5%. I asked a guy why he wanted to
go out on strike. He said he was striking for 12%. I told him he would
be striking for .5%. Nope. He was adamant that it was 12%. I tried to
explain the difference between 11.5 % and 12 % but he could not be
persuaded. We ended up accepting the contract, but only by a narrow
margin.
 
I had been worried. It was a summer job for me and it paid close to 3
times as much as the part time job I had left it for.

We often hear of corporate greed but union greed can be just as bad. I
know of a small company where a senior worker was getting 10 weeks
vacation. He wanted 12 weeks so got everyone riled up and a strike.
 
The owner sold the business and the new owner gives them 2 weeks.

Sad you have to resort to to personal insults. Back in the bozo bin.

In a pinch, I've made an onion and tomato salad. It was good with the
mayo/ketchup dressing.

True. Woolworth's stores date back to the "GUFFAW" era.

I remember that time well. Mid to late 1990's. My first PC came with 4MB.
I wanted to upgrade that but not at that price.
Finally the price fell and I bought an 8MB ram chip for the cheap price
of $125. lol

Seems he was a nasty person. I never thought he was all that good as an
entertainer/singer. Plenty of people did and he was quite the star in
his time.
 
Too many singers that, IMO, are much better that I prefer to listen to.

He is a big star with a lot of fans, but I would not cross a street for
a free concert. Never cared for him as a singer or as a person.

Then you get a thin pancake. It doesn't have the richness of the extra
egg.

The free exchange of ideas should not be confused with the right to
abuse people.
