@george-k Oh yes, you need his supervision in all things culinary, and occasionally, he needs to be part of the cleanup crew. Yes, drop at least one piece of meat for the crew.

Interesting. I had not hear of this. I will ask some colleagues who deal in this area on their thoughts.

Former Governor Andrew Cuomo of NY.

@doctor-phibes said in The Great Songwriters: @george-k said in The Great Songwriters: (Schubert wrote more than 600 songs and he was dead before he reached age 32) In general, it's fair to say that the output, training and knowledge of classical composers puts the current generation of characters to shame. If you're talking about today's pop music, I agree.

Good. Y'all jab 'em and we'll watch.

And I thought this was a Chris Dodd thread....

See? The article was right.

They need to stop body shaming my Commodore Amiga…

@brenda said in Meanwhile in Michigan ...: @mark said in Meanwhile in Michigan ...: Those radiators look awesome! Well, I am sure they will when you are done with them. Post pics during the process and of course the results. I'll try to remember to post pics during the process. Sometimes I just keep moving forward and forget to take pics. They'll look their best when in place in the bathroom, and that will be a long while yet. Gotta finish the shower (hubby project) and tile the floor. It's been a long project, very long. Good thing we have the main bathroom upstairs by the bedrooms. We have had the master bedroom bath out of commission for years. Just the bath tub/shower. the rest of the bathroom works just fine. The fault of laziness on my part having another full bath, and 2 additional showers available. lol

@taiwan_girl said in What’s going on in Jersey?!: @Jolly Interesting comment, (though I have no idea what is happening in New Jersey). I dont think that the Democrats will change things, same way as the Republics do not want to change things after the 2020 election. Almost like the "sunk cost" theory. I have so much invested in this particular position/person/strategy, etc., that I cannot change now. While I think there’s some truth to that, I also think some of the more moderate Dems will make some adjustments. My bet is you will see the infrastructure bill get passed first despite the Progressive roadblock and we will likely see a further reduced Build Back Better plan, but there will still be a Build Back Better plan.

And DPRK has urged its citizens to eat less until 2025. (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/north-korea-tells-starving-citizens-to-eat-less-report)

I think we will see more of that. China is such a big market and difficult for a business to ignore, but alot of the things that mainland China does almost seems like they are trying to isolate themselves. Other companies will determine it is just not worth the hassle to be there.

Not that I expect it to mean anything to anybody else, but I gotta make the record of how much I hate the 'Let's Go Brandon' meme. Hate it. I need it to go away. 'Let's Go!' is Brady's battle cry, much respected in the football arena, long established, and now adopted by the Bucs as their own. I hate that it's being abused by every asshole in the country this way. Rant over -- unless the occasion to rant some more about it resurfaces.

New Brunswick is looking better all the time.

I’d hit it.

Must be hard to give up everything you ever were. A prison of its own.

The virus has never been found in its supposed host, evan after intense efforts to do so. This has never happened before in epidemiology. The Wuhan lab was actively engaged in Gain Of Function research. SARS-Cov-2 has a double CGG sequencing, likely inserted by CRISPER technology, commonly used to make viruses more transmissible or more lethal. That sequencing in genetic manipulation is a well known technique. Double CGG has never been found in a coronavirus, until COVID. The Chinese knew what they had, shortly after the pandemic started in Wuhan. Witness the military shooting people in the streets and apartment doors being welded shut. Also witness how they have tried mightily, through disinformation or coercion to spike any story about the virus being created in Wuhan. Yeah, I'm 90% convinced.
