This sort of thing happens more than you think, and it is often intentional. We once had a customer who removed the rear seat bottom, took a dump there, and replaced the seat. No reason, just a guy who was getting his car fixed in the body shop.

What I was thinking was that maybe at one time she bit into a peppercorn, which can set off sneezing, tears, and coughing. That might lead someone to think of an allergy. Fresh peppercorns can be pretty potent.

I did miss your point a bit I guess. But when I read the list of ingredients for Easy Fish Loaf, I thought to myself that it actually looked okay. I have some old cookbooks from the 1930s; I like the recipes that start with”slaughter a chicken”. Or the ones that start with two cups of lard. Consider that those were 40…

The only issue here is that you are using a 4o year old edition. The most recent Joys are an up-to-date and useful basic reference. I consider myself an experienced home cook, and I still consult Joy when I run into something I’m unfamiliar with. And for basic methodology, it can’t be beat.

Bought a 6er based on this article. It’s okay. Certainly decent enough. Would I buy it again? I’ll let you know when the 6er is done. I guess I’d get it to let others try it.

You haven’t autocrossed until you’ve seen someone set FTOD in a Lincoln Town Car. Or run the course in a Caravan, in reverse. Those guys are out there.

Another one. This one goes back a few years, when Chevy had a contest where the customer pushed the Onstar button on a car in the showroom for a chance to win a new car. An old guy pulled in, in an old Lumina APV, and asked which car, and showed the salesman his to-do list for the day: “1) get bread & milk, 2)…

Customer calls up, asks to speak with the sales manager, whom she knew socially; friend of a friend, talked at parties, that sort of thing. She’s on vacation, but she saw a silver Legacy on the lot and wanted to know how much, what the payments were, etc, and when she got back she would pick the car up. We don’t like…

I’m in the car business, and I do feel sorry for these people. They can’t get out of the spiral: bad credit leads to bad deals leads to bad credit. But the credit is based on risk... but the resulting deal leads to a bad car with a high payment. I don’t have an answer to the problem, but I do feel bad for these people.

Everyone who let Marino slide is picking that draft, but the team that really has to be kicking themselves is Marino’s hometown Steelers, who picked Gabe Rivera (Senor Sack) that year because of rumors of Marino’s drug use while at Pitt. I was living in Oakland (near the Pitt campus) during that time, and it was…

“When the verdict was announced there were gasps in the courtroom, but Hernandez looked around and showed no reaction before sitting down.”

Oh, man. It was our honeymoon.

Your dad wouldn’t happen to be Chuck Moscovitz, would he? Sorry if the question is personal. I lived around the corner from the Moscovitzes in Pittsburgh. There were lots of Moscovitzes though.

Yep. Or the other thing that happens is that an OTA update comes along and wipes out all the changes, like what happened to my first Kindle Fire.

Oi! Double oi!

I did it, just went ahead and bought a Miata. The conversation went like this:

Henry Ford was president? Wow. I must have taken too much acid in the '60s and '70s, because I don't remember that. I remember a Gerald Ford, and I think Henry had something to do with cars, but beyond that I'm really foggy.

Texas goulash was probably American goulash. Ground beef, peppers, onions, garlic, tomatoes, elbow macaroni.

I made this yesterday.
