In fact my under $1 rye-whole-wheat with caraway seeds loaf is putting thee aroma through the house as I write. Next one s going to be breakfast bread. It has cinnamon, raisins, fruit, whole wheat flour....it is about $2.30 to make but I defy anyone to find better. I don't know how much more simple an egg can get, but at 20 cents or less for an egg and so many ways too cook it... As for fresh fruit, July, August and September we don't buy any as we end up disposing of a lot, not sure what to do with 25 gallons of apples, then there is the raspberries and strawberries. The later two we freeze for the fall/winter. Lots of apple pie, strudel, apple out the ears. Trouble is you lazy fleabaggers never even bothered to learn how to cook. Maybe they should put you in a cage with a placard that says "Totally useless animal". You're a simple-minded fool. Why don't you claim you can get a mortgage again.

I don't live in the 'inner city' and I'll repeat what i said: "That's pretty well how it works in my area too. just go through any convenience store. Pizza, beer and chips is the fare of the day. " I have no doubt that a small town is as you describe, but this doesn't say anything regarding the overall problem of poor nutrition for those who are struggling. The "convenience" store model is for, well, convenience. It's never going to be for healthy food. Get a job. Fortunately, I have my own business. You're incapable of getting a job, however. Have you applied to McD's lately? You never know... Ya, heard that before. Your a legal assistant, self (un)employed. Huh? If you've heard it before, then you would know that I don't practice patent law much any more... very rarely, and I don't need a legal assistant to do it. Oh wait, you're a moron and have trouble with comprehension. My apology. |

I believe it is true that you are making things up as you go. defumer, wtf3 and harryk, they always make up their bull**** as they go on. Three pathetic bull****ers.

Yes I know, it's really not fair to leave out all of those democrats, but it is what it is. So, if someone lives in a bad neighborhood, is a law-abiding citizen, but is a victim of gun violence, it's that's person's fault? Or, if all they can afford to buy is cheap food from the local, poorly stocked store, it's their fault. Basically, that's what you're saying. No D'Plume. It is all YOUR fault. YOUR fault for allowing the armed person to prey on the law-abiding citizen due to economic strife or what ever else you can blame on society to put the person into a league of criminal activity due to desperate circumstances. It is also YOUR fault that people can't control their poor eating habits due to you not setting up education and health food services for them. Not counting inviting them into your home and cooking for them. Poor D'Plume. You are a toad in society. You are not, and will not do enough for the poor, helpless, and needy.. Trying to engage Ms. D'Parrot in an intelligent and reasoned debate is an excercise in futility. Her mind is firmly made up and is not about to be easily confused by the facts. That said, store owners in poor neighborhoods, like store owners everywhere, know their customers and stock what sells. If people are buying vegetables and dairy products, they'll stock vegetables and dairy products. If people are buying Hostess Twinkies and malt liquor, they'll stock that instead. It is a tribute to our wonderfully enlightened policies that people can actually use government food stamps to buy junk food, and it sells very well. Wayne. Please stop calling Deplume 'D'Parrot'. Yes, I know, she strongly resembles, with her behavior, a dimwitted African grey. But, that is no excuse to participate in name-calling. (There, deplume, does that make you happy?) Well, there we are. Proof positive that you're a hypocritical liar. You've proved your a racist in other posts, but I was wondering how long it would take to demonstrate your low-brow lying. You're really working hard to move to the top of the idiot list, but Knuckles is still king of the hill. Well, I guess that didn't make you happy. At least it didn't hurt your name calling. I suppose you're practicing right now. (Note the correct usage of 'your' and 'you're'. You're starting to sound like Loogy. He fixed his problem though.) As I said, you're a liar. You've proved it over and over. Feel free to correct everyone's typos if it makes you feel more a man. Herring gave up his manhood when he participated in the murder of a million innocent SE Asians during his term in uniform. You went from boy to pussy when you made your life choices. You can't take that back and do it over. Having to live your life as a sniveling coward and suffering the ridicule is your reward. Enjoy Harry persists in comparing me to John Kerry. Only I didn't lie about my service. And, Kerry was Harry's hero. Nice try at deflection, herring. My response was about you and your participation in the war against the Vietnamese. If you were there, you helped kill a million innocent Asians. -- Want to discuss recreational boating and fishing in a forum where personal insults are not allowed? http://groups.google.com/group/rec-boating-fishing |
