The constant devotion to Usenet, sitting in front of a computer all day... I just cannot comprehend. There is no way that a bot is doing it, it's some lonely person who is clearly very bored.

Certainly not a half gallon, but I'll get one as depicted on the half gallon label with the wood cap. Maybe ~$2 IIRC for the bottle that I saw at Family Dollar; price was rather reasonable. My instinct is usually to be cheap with condiments, except for ketchup; I only buy Heinz. I'm out of Worcestershire sauce finally... the store brand wasn't very good. Is Lea/Perkins in the paper wrapper worth it? |

I've never tried any but the original, and might not ever. We just got back from shopping, where we went to a Mexican restaurant/store, where we bought salsa verde that tastes like it was made with cactus. It's going to be the sauce for chilaquiles. --Bryan |

My 2 cents. :) > Jill It doesn't look as bad in the photo as now, because that photo was taken 10 years ago. "Liberty tax" was still occupying the main storefront when the photo was taken. I'd say at least a dozen windows have fallen out since, and have been boarded up. Pieces of rotting wood trim are falling off also. The roof is leaking like a sieve. The building has a lot of historical significance locally, but I don't see anyone investing $1 million+ in restoring it, so some day it will be another empty lot. The stained glass is still almost all intact, and I've heard that the purple glass is rare/expensive. If it comes to being torn down, I'll try to work with the owners to salvage it. |

I'm OK with some dogs, but large aggressive barking dogs (even if friendly) are very off putting to me. Same as the little ankle-biter dogs. It's rare that I find a dog that I like. |

When I tried water I didn't get the watery remnants. For a while I dropping the eggs directly into the pan and then scrambling them. I have settled on beating them with a fork, adding some hot sauce and then into the pan. Even better than browning the butter is to add some spinach as the butter is browning and letting it wilt before adding the eggs. |

I'll probably melt it into a milkshake then > or something. I am guessing buying gallon tubs will save you a few cents. Here's a hint to prevent freezer burn. Press some plastic wrap down on the top of the ice cream after you've dished some up, before you close the container. It helps cut off the formation of ice crystals and freezer burn. There's really no point in saving a few pennies if you wind up with some nasty old ice cream. Jill |

My end goal is to stop drafts. This horrid cold has one benefit... in the single didgits at night, I can more easily feel where the drafts are coming in. True, storm windows are just as efficient when properly installed, if not better, than crappy vinyl replacement windows. Being a retired painter, I'm not sure if you share my sentiment for wooden window sashes or not. They literally last forever with proper maintenance, and are easy to repair (not to mention customizable via paint color). Vinyl is ugly, and it will end up in a dumpster in 20-30 years; rinse, later, repeat -- as Jill says. |

I don't need to use frozen veg for ice packs. We have several purpose-made medical ice packs in the freezer at all times. They're much more comfortable and effective than frozen peas.

In reality, I think that the intent of these spam posters is to become visible on Google results for free, by continuing to repeat their messages. RFC is a rather active newsgroup, and I'm sure it makes it's way to the top. |
