Scallops again, this time is a shallot-sauternes cream. Tonight making chicken and morels.

Teacher: “Brazzaville is the capital of what country?" Bongo: My name is Little Bongo, I sing my little song-go. Whenever I get called upon the teacher says I'm wrong-go. My name is little Bongo I love to play ping pong-go. I have an ear upon my head They say it's very long-go...

Patriotism is the religion of Hell - Cabbell

Personally, I had persistent sleep behaviors with Ambien, even months after ceasing to use it. In my case a lot of sleep cooking and eating. Actually gained 20 pounds because of it. Did some surprisingly good cooking in that state though. Lunesta was, in some ways, even worse. Had such...

Malaclypse the Younger from the Principia Discordia. HAIL ERIS! “The Initiate must be totally naked, to demonstrate that he is truly a human being and not something else in disguise like a cabbage or something.” "I may be crazy but it doesn't mean I'm wrong. I'm mad but not ill." “All...

More fennel sausage, today with orange bell peppers and sauternes, and a little heat.

I I have such horrific asthma, I never use anything scented. I use unscented baby wipes, plus a hypoallergenic bath bar, to bathe him. I'm hoping he'll grow out of it. It does seem to be in part attention seeking - he peed on the floor today while I was talking to a neighbor and we were...

He's a 3 month, 3 week old OEBD, came from a breeder. The breeder had done nighttime crating, but had a fenced yard and a doggy door, so the pup had been used to going out whenever he felt the urge. I live in an apartment, no yard of my own, no pet door. He is fed twice a day, in the morning...

Been doing a lot of research overnight, and i found a lot supporting this statement. Turns out this is a much more common problem than I'd have thought. Dogs only become averse to feces as they get older, unless their dam taught them to avoid it when young, and i know Cyrus was taken away from...

This will be a growing issue, as more and more states look at decriminalization / legalization. It;s kind of amazing, as this has happened before - when alcohol prohibition ended, there were thousands of people in prison for possession of alcohol. And nobody thought about what would happen to...

Back for more advice re the puppy. In the past 24 hours, he has shit inside right after being walked, pissed in his crate, then shat in his crate, where I found him apparently happily lying in his own shit and piss only a couple of hours after my dog walker had walked him. I have never had a...

Well, it just got worse. Yesterday, in Fernandez v California, SCOTUS seriously expanded warrantless searches. In this case, they held that overriding the defendant's refusal to allow a warrantless search was kosher because the defendant was 'no longer physically present' - because the cops...

AAAAARGH!!!! Puppy just broke ANOTHER Bates turbine, taking me from three to one in just two weeks. This time I really don't know how he did it. My phase 2 Hitman turbine tube was securely wedged against a table leg, where the puppy has been unable to knock it over for weeks. Now he knocks...

Thank you, @t-dub. If you're ever in the DC are PM me - I always like cooking for people. If it weren't for all the surgeries I'd never have stopped. Used the last of the pulled pork today to do a bit of fusion. It's in a balsamic and port reduction with sliced black plums.

I'm sure we all know this one already. But given what is happening in Uganda, the new law pending in the state of AZ, the state of affairs in Russia, etc, it must be remembered now. First, non-poetic version is attributed to Martin Niemoller, but it is the poeticized version below most people...

Most of the sauce is under the focaccia, but here's sweet italian fennel sausage in a mushroom and herb ragu, made with some of the good sauternes. In deference to Mods, it is on a real plate.

Lakatos is the shit (sorry for the unscientific phrasing). IMHO, more important than Popper or Kuhn.

The RaMBaM (Maimonides): Do not consider it proof just because it is written in books, for a liar who will deceive with his tongue will not hesitate to do the same with his pen. http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/m/maimonides184452.html#kvypr3SZOMKbTrBH.99

Back to a more entertaining quote: "That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange eons even death may die." And from the same feller (HP Lovecraft), my fave quote in a fake language, often shortened simply to 'Cthulu fhtagn': "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" [In...

You again bring up what i LOVE about Sikhism. It truly does recognize the truth value in multiple traditions. I think it combines the best of the theistic traditions and the non-theistic self-discipline traditions. If I ever leaned towards theism again, I might very well go Sikh. The Buddha...
