Christianity in general is just a strange and illogical concept. God's only son sacrificed himself for our sins? lowut? God made us. He created us with this sin. If we are all sinners, its because God himself made us like that. The fact that he then has to send his son down here for us so we can repent, believe in him and go to heaven is ridiculous. Thats not a sacrifice. Thats a threat. Blackmail of sorts. It would be like me kidnapping someone, putting them in a room with poisinous gas and then sending my kid in there to resxue them. And when they come out, I tell them my kid died to rescue them so worship him because I sacrificed my son for them. EXCEPT I PUT THEM THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE wtffffffffffffffffff. The whole concept if flawed. The only way to salvation is through Christ. Well cool except humans have existed for thousands of years before that. Apart from being short sighted, its a silly idea because if all humans are sinners, who died for the ones before Christ. And if they are judged differently, then why should any other human after Christ be judged on their belief in an event not clearly documented about a person whose life is a mystery. Makes no sense. Oh and gays are bad. Cool story bros. |

Fourteen hundred years ago Islam gave women rights; rights that could not have been imagined by European counterparts. Bold words! Words that have been spoken repeatedly, especially in the last two or three decades by Muslim converts, and Islamic writers, academics and educators across the globe. Women’s rights, responsibilities, and choices have been the subject of books, articles, essays, and lectures. Sadly however, convincing the world that Muslim women are not oppressed by Islam is a message that is just not getting through. Media headlines scream oppression and the words Muslim, women, and oppression seem to have become inextricably linked. No matter what Muslim women do or say to try to convince the world otherwise, words like hijab, burka, polygamy, and Sharia seem to do little but convince people that Islam oppresses women. Even educated, articulate women fulfilling the modest conditions of hijab can do little to dispel the myths. Women who conduct themselves with decorum and grace and function effortlessly in the modern world have their achievements and successes celebrated. However, if a woman wears a scarf, covers her hair or puts her religion above worldly pursuits she is immediately labelled oppressed. One wonders if this is the case for women of other religious persuasions |

You either served only in the well supplied areas, or are glossing it over now so many decades later. > It was very rare not to have fresh foods, No, it happens when outside main supply routes. Try the trek to Darwin from Sasebo Japan. There's 3 weeks outside supply chain there. And you didnt make 50 full 2 lb loaves of bread there a day, the crew size was too small then for that. You maybe made 150 *regular buns* like I made a bakers dozen (13) a day or so ago and am to make another for us 3 tomorrow. Sorry, buyt you waxed a bit too much and calling you on it. Carol -- |

I have, on at least three prior occasions, written posts that delve into the “alleged” lurid past of one of our former presidents, George Herbert Walker Bush (GHWB), the current but ailing patriarch of the Bush Family Dynasty – I refer to them as the Bush Family Crime Syndicate, certainly not in terms of endearment – but rather more like the Mafia Godfather who prepares his sons to take over the family business upon his death. This particular post references an article by Stew Webb, a contributor of Veterans Today. In his life-time, George H. W. Bush (GHWB) has controlled every clandestine (hidden from view) and secret organization/operation within the arsenal of the United States government as either 1) Director of the CIA, 2) Vice President to Ronald Reagan (who was an unwitting puppet to the Bush controlled cabal – GHWB secretly gave Reagan poisons that hastened his fall into Alzheimer’s Disease and evidence suggests he helped plan Reagan’ attempted assassination by John Hinckley, whose family were close friends of the Bush family – a coincidence?) and 3) ultimately as President of the United States before Bill Clinton took office. |

Their pastrami might be even closer to authentic, but I haven't tried it. At any rate, make the white sauce and add the beef crudely chopped. It might not be authentic, but it's pretty good. leo |

You as much as anyone should know that the grubbermint pays exhorbitant prices for everything, always did... but even so: http://www.amazon.com/Hormel-Dried-S...d+chipped+beef At Amazon my math says it costs $1.50/oz or $24/lb. I haven't looked lately at the ordinary grocery store prices but whenever I did I thought dried chipped beef was ridiculously expensive... I haven't eaten any since way back then when I could have all I wanted for free, but wasn't something I liked so I rarely ate any.. I never cared for anything in bechamel, still don't. My favorite cured breakfast meat in the navy were their ham steaks (with the little round bone in the center), don't know what company produced them but I haven't found any as good since... were great alongside a sq. yd. mound of my home fries. I've never been a gravy person, I mix all roast drippings into the outside cat's food... before those cats I'd pour it on the snow, next morning it was all gone, never known it was there 'cept for the critter paw prints. It was mostly the southerners who liked creamed chipped beef, northerners prefered the ground beef in red sauce (Manwich style). Very few northerners would eat grits, they prefered oatmeal. Everyone liked my baked beans, were at most every breakfast, there were some kind of beans at most every meal. Most southerners wouldn't eat pasta, some would stare at spaghetti and ask what kind of worms. |

This particular post references an article by Stew Webb, a contributor of Veterans Today. In his life-time, George H. W.

You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the total blue. After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3 years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY MOVING IN WITH YOU? That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2 years. Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away. There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo. And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're manic depressive mixed with habitual liar. Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles. -sw |

The "Olde English" cheese is certainly nothing special. I have a crab recipe that calls for it and I always bought the OE cheese thinking it had some special taste. I never tasted it plain, I just mixed it in. Last time though I decided to try a spoonful by itself. I couldn't believe I'd been paying so much for this tiny jar all the years. It tastes just like 'american cheese product' to me. Next time I make this recipe I'll just melt some of those slices. Or maybe buy some real mild cheddar from the deli to melt. All about the same taste. |

Easier than melting sliced "cheese product", right? It probably has the same consistency as those little crocks. I dunno, I never bought them but I've seen them. Jill |
