That's so cool.

Question: Do you melt the butter and mix it in with the olive oil, black
pepper and oregano?

How exciting! Is that John for whom you cooked, or is it another
friend? I hope that you had a wonderful holiday. I will ask my
sister to send me her paper, if she still has it.

If you think reporters are bad, try the police when you're a witness to
a crime.

Which is why lots of police cruisers now have video cameras.

Yep, that detective investigating the crime sure could have used one. Or
at least a recorder so he would have gotten it right. Cruisers usually
carry those cameras for traffic stops and most are fixed in place.

In my city the detectives go armed with a digital camera these days. I
remember helping to spec out the unit they'd use.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! That is the part that gets screwed up and I was

I can't tell you how many times I've heard Judge Judy on television say
angrily, "Do you think the police were lying?!" when a plaintiff or
defendent disputes what's in the police report. Irks me no end; police are
just as prone to human error as anyone else.

I've posted this before but here's the original recipe.

2 c. sliced yellow (crookneck) squash
1 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 c. cornbread stuffing crumbs
1 c. milk
1 small minced onion
1 Tbs. butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

Combine all ingredients. Place in a 1-1/2 quart casserole dish. Bake at
350F for 1 hour until set. *If using leftover prepared cornbread dressing,
reduce the amount of milk as needed. You want the mixture to be moist, not
mushy.

I usually lightly steam the squash first, too, to get some of the excess
water out of it prior to baking.

Errors, yes. I got off on a speeding ticket because it was so full of
errors. But, anyone who thinks the police don't lie is naive. They lie as
a matter of course. Lying is part of the job.

Apparently a random search by the reporter found an OLD recipe of mine for
using leftover turkey (and the carcass, I would imagine) to make soup. I
haven't made turkey soup in at least 10 years so I don't know what recipe
the reporter found. She emailed me about an interview using leftovers, then
arranged a phone interview.

She didn't get this quite right as I'd never use balsamic vinegar to dip a
toasted piece of baguette in; that was for sprinkling on the warm spinach
salad. And she forgot to mention the "entree" is a cottage pie using
leftover turkey and leftover mashed potatoes for the topping. I didn't
quite understand that since she specifically asked if she could call it a
shepherd's pie. But other than that, I was presented in very good company

MDT's in the cars help this. And they're removable and wireless so the

In the time frame 1997 to 2001 I installed their POS package on a whole
bunch of computers. It wasn't bad and probably one of the better out
there but it was a bear if you messed with the btrieve files.

Thanks, Jill! I think I'd bake the squash first, if
moisture is a problem.

What joke was Nancy talking about?

It's a joke among those of us in the "clique" (heheh). A few years ago I
went to my brother's house for T-Day. I took cornbread dressing. He
informed me later my dressing sucks and that my mom thinks so, too! I
mentioned this to my mother who exclaimed, "I never said that! Jill, I've
never even *tasted* your cornbread dressing!" He was being very ****y that
day, trying to start arguments with everyone. It got so bad I left
immediately after dinner.

Note: It's just standard cornbread dressing. To course cornbread course
crumbs (like Pepperidge Farm if you don't make your own) add melted butter,
warm chicken broth, diced onion & celery. Mix until moist and bake in a
bread pan. IIRC I added some cooked wild rice that year.

Tony, I tried to email you privately but of course your address is munged.

In the years since you installed the old POS (or was it POS Plus?) their
relationship with RealWorld Software fell apart; subsequent to that
RealWorld itself fell apart. LOL Synchronics has since developed another
point-of-sale product called CounterPoint. When I was on a trip in
Minneapolis I saw it running on the PC's at the check-out of Surdyk's, a
large wine & cheese shop.
