epoch wrote: Well, I have a story: A pastor entered his donkey in a race and it won.
The pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he
entered it in the race again, and it won again. The
local newspaper read:
PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT.
The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity
that he ordered the pastor not to enter the donkey in
another race.
The next day, the local newspaper headline read:
BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS.
This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the
pastor to get rid of the donkey. The pastor decided to
give it to a nun in a nearby convent. The local paper,
hearing of the news, posted the following headline the
next day:
NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The Bishop fainted. He informed the nun that she would
have to get rid of the donkey, so she sold it to a
farmer for $10. The next day the paper read:
NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10.
This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the
nun to buy back the donkey and lead it to the plains
where it could run wild. The next day the headlines
read:
NUN ANNOUNCES...HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE. I'm on the express train..

That would be correct. About art and the surfing problem. I knew a guy who was born and raised in S.Africa. He was way more African\American than most N.american black people, but he was white. I hate people trying to be what there ancestors were, especially when they have no clue.
I know 2nd generation European americans who aren't very European at all.

You pick up on things, when using fresh ingredients. Unlike Uncle Ben's rice, real rice requires preparation. So real rice doesn't come in a 10kilo bag with Asian writing on it? I have always just threw it in a pot and cooked it. In Japan it came in many forms. My favorite was the bulk vending machine type. Bring a 3 gallon bucket insert 500 yen (US$4.75) and it fills. [culinary geek moment] To prepare white long or short grain rice, the best method is to rinse the crap out of it until the water is no longer a milky color. Using either a colander or placing the rice in a large pot you rinse, rinse, rinse, rinse, and rinse. When that milky color is gone, you want to soak the rice under about a nuckle of water for 12 hours. I steam my rice on a bamboo steamer and the cheesecloth comes in handy throughout the entire process. First, it keeps the rice contained and managable while rinsing; I've mastered rinsing in a colander. Then you let it soak for about 12 hours in a bowl; again the cheesecloth keeps everything together. And finally, when steaming the rice, the cheesecloth keeps everything together and from falling through the slats in the steamer. My rice comes out super sticky and fluffy. By pre-soaking the rice, also, the cooking time is down to about 5 minutes. Cooking it this way requires some planning and preperation but the quality is much better, and you can get rice cheaper when it's uncooked. For flavor, rice takes on the flavor of whatever you put in it. It's the ultimate starch. [/culinary geekery] Cooking is a passionate hobby of mine, can you tell? I like eating good food, and if I can get supurb taste cheaply I'll do it. *looks up* I'm not reading that. Seriously couldn't you just buy a rice cooker at an asian market? I'm too cheap for that. It would cut into my climbing fundz... the way I do it now works just fine. But I don't eat rice all that often, so when I do, doing it that way is a treat.

Er.....I wasn't what you'd call an idea patiant those first couple of weeks. It's possible, but I don't think you were a bitch to them. Just out of it. The nurse in ER just said you were "combative"heh. storytime! She is a pretty bad patient. It gets worse when they give her morphine. I think that was when she was combative. She also likes to pull out tubes. We don't like it when people try to pull out tubes, mostly because it can be bad for the orifice that the tube is shoved in.
