I used to make bread with that as part of the mix. Good for what ails you! Wb

Got to love that cinder block you've got in your photo. Somehow if I tried that here it would land on my foot in the middle of the night! Wb

There are hybred Fisher Tube amps too that use a combination of tubes and transistors. I have one in pristine shape in my basement. Wb

You can smoke em' if you got a Tri-Tip with lots of attached fat or you could cook them using the recipe I posted a link to above if you want to cook them quickly go with that one. I make the following changes to it: - Rub room temperture dry meat all over with cut Garlic (I use a paper towel, but never rinse the meat in water). - Cook 4 pieces of smoked side bacon in the fry pan you're using and reserve the bacon fat. If you don't eat or can't eat bacon use a couple of pieces of beef fat and render the fat first to use that instead (I use a frying pan with lid on to render beef fat). - Rub the meat with a mixture of spices and not just seasoning salt. (I use freshly ground pepper, salt, celery salt and a pinch of sugar). - While the meat is resting after you've sprinkled on spices; cook some carrot, celery, onion and a small sliced purple turnip piece in the rendered fat. - Brown the meat on the stove top in the frying pan using the rendered fat or part of it (with the vegetables set aside for later). Scrap the pan using white vermouth, sherry or sake and reserve the scrapings. - Place the cooked vegetables in your pan's bottom and place the meat on top of them with the fat side up. Add some of the rendered fat if necessary and put it all into a pre-heated 425 Degrees F oven for 15 to 20 minutes/lb. - Confirm the meat has reached an internal temp of 135 Degrees F or more (I like 140 Degrees F) with an instant read thermometer. - Remove it and wrap it foil along with the cooked vegetables and make either an Au Jus along with the pan scrappings. - Slice it as thin as you can against the grain (i.e. English Cut). Eat and enjoy. 🍴 Wb

For me it was the arrival of my first child. Too many 'nutz' on the road even 30 years ago. It's only getting worse! Wb

Josh, You could always make your own without having to worry about driving in the supports with a five lb slege to get below the frost line. This guy did. Nothing says fanatical, dedicated and commited like a homemade wooden sign! Wb

Here we have bike paths off road that go downtown through the river valley. I don't have to worry about someone texting, drinking coffee or looking in their mirror while applying Hag Putty because they're late for work. Wb

Do you live on the coast or inland? Morning fog or at night? Great! We are headed for our annual summer this weekend with temps like that! I thought we were going to miss it this year too. Double bonus!! Still going to have to fly down and rent a car, but summer is just 3 hours away by air. Wb Wb

I vote for Raw and maintained. Wb

Ever been on one of those at high speed? With or without Thebes driving and considering you are probably old enough now to realize that you're mortal; you should be scared. Especially of other nearby motorists in larger vehicles. Helmuts are known as 'brain baskets' in ICU's for good reason. Wb

Do you mean the unit above or this 'magic box': http://www.magicboxaudio.com/ ❓ Wb

If you are desperate, starving, traveling with a pet and your local Rotten Ronny's will cook to order at your request (i.e. from from raw patty to cooked while you wait the 15 minutes) McD's is just okay. However, I believe most of their beef comes from outside of N. America and mostly from old Bulls, not beef cattle. God only knows how the source animal is treated (which should be respect and good care) or what they are actually getting in their feed! That said, avoid their chiken sandwiches like death!! My wife likes A&W burgers and convience but if I'm picking it up she waits (for my 'cooked to order A&W burgers'). Believe me it is worth the wait compared to the reheated, tastes like shat alternative.💩 Wb

Willybob, It took us ten years to acquire another Bichon after the first one passed away at only 7 years of age (i.e. ten years before normal life-expectaancy for Bichons). All the money in the world would not have been able to save him (believe me, my wife tried). Still miss that dog a lot but having brought a couple more into the family (from a different breeder), at the insistence of my youngest daughter, I only regret walking him and his young buddy when it gets to minus 40 here and windy or over 90 when we are down south. He hates the extreme heat on his paws even more than the extreme cold and the salt and sharp gravel the city throws all over the roads here now though. The only dog we owned that some people really feared was our Minature Schnauzer, no Beware of Dog sign required. A Terrior that could strike fear in the eyes of large non-dog delivery people and even some local large breed dogs. Bichon's have the look of wounded sheep and think they are either cats or Blood Hounds. Wb

Stereo effect? Wb

Saw the original of the series and then the version with Jar Jar something or other. Never seen another SW movie since. Unlikely I will see this one either. Not much of a movie goer since they quit making movies with large casts based on true stories. The movie version of 'A Bridge Too Far' I can watch every few years. Wb

Considering it all started after being ripped off from the Kellogg Brothers Grape Nuts and Post has done well. Much better than Special K and Corn flakes, which tastes like dried cardboard to me. I'm still partial to my Oatmeal in the mornings here. Wife refuses to buy me and make my childhood favorite 'Roman Meal' for reasons I can never figure out and she seemingly won't explain beyond 'UGH!'. I keep putting it on the grocery list and it never arrives. Wb

Was it also 'the best of times and the worst of times' or just raining? Wb

What's in that suddenly popular Beyond Beef Burger? Check out the ingredients in your dog's food. Notice the commonality? Wb

Head Cheese. But only if you're really, really unlucky. Wb

WRT Weird Al: Welcome to Heaven; here's your Harp! Welcome to Hell; here's your Accordian! Unless you're French or German than the Devil rewards you with Bag Pipes. Wb

I had a nice blue male when I was a child. Then one day he flew a little too low and close to my cat. Wb

Neither did Racoons. We've got them here now. Didn't Granny Clampet had a recipe for o'Possum Stew'? I wouldn't want to risk catching leptospirosis or any of the other nasty diseases they can carry and transmit so I'd pass on the stew or even trying to catch one to put in the pot. After reading the ingredients list, I stay away from Beyond Meat burgers too. Wb

Wouldn't last long here where weasels patrol the fence lines. Weasels' tend to punch far beyond their weight category. Wb

I was in the midst of responding when they closed it. Nothing political though. Elections here tend to be more civilized then what I witnessed while in Scottsdale in November 2016 and again in November of last year. Although this last one here somehow managed to be boring and unusual at the same time. Minority governments here mean we'll all get to have a redo in less than four years. Wb

Worst show I ever had to sit through was the off-Broadway version of 'Cats'. Wife dragged me to see it at a theatre in downtown Toronto. Closest I ever came to actually pulling the Fire Alarm and running out of the place screaming! Wb
