Posted on entry Holiday Feasts for Beginners ::: November 28, 2006, 01:59 AM:
I certainly can't add to what's been said, except one final item about disposal.

I keep a large, active, and well-utilized compost pile. After cleaning the turkey carcass with next day's snacking frenzy and assorted Tupperfying, and then boiling it and assorted remains for stock, I let it dry, then run it through the chipper, and into the compost it goes.

Apologia indeed! Enjoy your pornographic culinary meanderings to the utmost, even though you're venturing to a place where the holiday is six weeks past.

Here in Texas, it's going to be nearly 80 F, and we're cooking out. And no, no armadillo remoulade today. Brisket, cooked 24 hours.
Posted on entry Naming the war ::: November 21, 2006, 02:06 AM:
These days, I tend to just call it "this damned war." But I suspect history won't be kind to Dubya. My votes for the name:

1. The War of Embarrassment

2. The Iraq Debacle

Question asked by child in 2036: "Mom, where was Iraq?"

#39 Now all you need is a sufficiently terrifying patriotic hymn to put those words to. It can be played over the loudspeakers as the Democratic members of Congress are marched off to their detention as enemy combatants (TM).
Posted on entry Fred Head, Anti-Porn Crusader ::: October 16, 2006, 01:43 AM:
Just out of curiosity, I did a Google Image search, and found Head's public image (apparently, there's only one) to be only sixth in the queue, after the image of a solar power circuit, a magician, an electric tart warmer in the shape of the head of Frosty the Snowman, a horse, and a kittycat.

I can assure you that we, the exquisitely rare Democrats of Texas, hold Fred Head in the same regard. He's really pretty much of an embarrassment. And if most local and state Democratic pols weren't running as Republicans these days, in order to be considered, I can assure you he'd have never been on the ballot.
