| Hey guys. I asked MrMark and Alex yesterday if the description could be changed. Hopefully it will happen. This is not the first time that newcomers have been confused by that inaccuracy. I think the forum should just go away altogether. It's pointless, in my opinion, if it's not to allow women a l... |

| Les Halles Cookbook is a most excellant book. I have a couple of other French cookbooks that are ridiculously impratical. Les Halles is the only French cookbook I've seen that 1) makes French cooking accessible to the contemporary home cook and 2) doesn't patronize the contemporary home cook by teac... |

| I'm more than a little concerned about the way the Ana54 thread is going in this forum. A lot of red flags are going up in my head reading the most recent posts. I don't wish to be condescending toward Ana54, but all the same, I don't think it's either healthy or productive to continue discussing th... |

| Happy New Yearto you too. Glad there's someone else here who watches this very fine and exceptionally relevant show! I like Tony (and yeah, all his fans liberally call him that) cos he is very much like people I've known IRL who I've admired for their life experiences and down-to-earth attitude. It ... |

| I have sung a several choirs sincee I was 6, although I'm not currently in one. I've sung everything from "I Saw mommy Kissing Santa Claus" to Handel's Messiah. I love it. I'm a very good choir alto. I just wish I had more opportunity to do it as well as the time. |

| Old thread but what the hey. I really liked this show, but I don't think Chuck wasn suppose to be an Aspie. He's just a sort of sad sack kind of charatcer who's an magnet for sorry luck, pathetic friends and bad guys with guns. Yeah, he's a nerd. But just a nerd. He's shy and a little guillable, but... |

Later on, 6 PM or so (check your listings), they'll being airing the very touching Beirut episode that was nominated for an Emmy (if I heard correctly... |

More to the point, does anyone else here get offended, as I do, when ADD and ADHD (which are unproven medical disorders) are compared to Autism and Aspergers? Damn troll. AS is no more "proven" than ADD/ADHD. Yet you claim in your profile to have been dx... |

You can have all my happy thoughts. I'm not using them right now anyhow.
Sorry your soon-to-be-ex is such a prick. Just remember that you have chosen to move forward with your life, regardless to whatever he chooses to do. |

I love cooking, but I don't do anything that involves sterilizing equipment. So no pickling, preserving or fermenting.
I don't have much interest in brewing beer. I would rather leave that tot he professional, and gladly buy them for the beer.  |
