If you know anyone who'll be an airline passenger in the near future, have
them steal a few barf bags for you. You'll need them. The book describes
how
Carter, Reagan and to a lesser extent, Bush-1 totally dropped the ball
with
regard to keeping certain countries from developing nuclear weapons,
mainly
because it was expedient to do so. You'll learn how Dick Cheney cooked
near-perfect CIA reports so they'd be more useful to the administration.
Stuff like that.


LA and NY Times reporters are not at all biased, either. So everything

is bound to be the truth and nothing but.


You are a clone of several million others who use that as an excuse for
reading nothing at all. In fact, there is absolutely no source you would
trust for this information. None. Even if Robert Gates came to your home and
showed you reams of CIA documents proving you wrong, you would not believe
what you were reading.

You want to remain asleep. Why not just kill yourself, little johnny?

Three things I miss since leaving Chicago area are brats, good pizza

Italian beef sandwiches.

If you do stop there, have a couple for me.

Thanks, I saved it. You've given me the idea to go to Kenosha
and maybe visit the waterfront. Real quick trip compared to going out
on I-90 to see farms.
You got that right about pizza and Italian beef. I hardly ate brats
until I moved to the suburbs. 'Cause I can't find decent pizza or
Italian beef nearby!

A couple of years ago my 90 year old Aunt in Arlington Hts became
terminally
ill. My brother, from Michigan and I both traveled there to be with her
as
she had no other family. The three weeks I was there much of our dining
was
on pizza and Italian beef. When I arrived home in Florida I jumped on
the
scale only to find I had gained 13 pounds.

Haven't found a decent pizza joint here. There have been a couple of
places
that opened and served pretty good Chicago style Italian beef but
neither
of
them lasted very long.

When I first moved to Florida I walked into a "Italian" pizza restaurant
and
ordered an Italian beef to go. They looked at me like I just fell out of
tree, they had never heard of such a thing. I didn't realize it's a
thing
pretty much unique to Chicago.

Yep.

Another "thing" is ordering pickle on your hot dog. Nice big fat
slice of pickle. And real mustard, not the crap mustard most hot dog
places have. Properly chunked spanish onions.

mmmmmm.....

There's plenty of authentic ethnic foods in Florida. It's a whole
industry catering to snowbirds.

I don't know what type of ethnic food you are referring to, but other than
Latin *food stuffs in South Florida I haven't found a wide variety in my
time here. * I'm referring to the raw material to prepare for yourself at

Uh, Florida is one of the largest beef cattle producing states there
is, for one thing. So if you can't get good beef there, I don't know
where you'd get it!

Here's a good place:

Toojay's is pretty decent too.

in Dunedin, FL is a great Italian beef place at Tampa Road and U.S.
Hwy 19. It's called Hott Dogg Heaven of all things, but has great
Chicago style dogs and Italian Beef

It sounds like you aren't in the Tampa area, but if you ever get up
there, there's some suggestions for you to try!

'Scuse me for buttin' in.

The catfish place I was talking about in Columbus was 'Pritchett's
Kitchen'. It came to me today.

Are you sure? Because when I was in my teens there was a Pritchett's
Kitchen in Jacksonville, FL.

I'm talking early 1970, but I'm sure of the name.

I was last working in Jacksonville in 1964-65, and our favorite place to
eat was 'The Chicken Shack' south of town. All you could eat for about
$4.95, and great turnip greens.

Yes. It is not produced but raised.

If you like good southern food, and you ever get in the Atlanta area,
head to Social Circle, GA, lots of antebelum homes, and a boarding
house type place called the Blue Willow Inn.

As a matter of fact, they have a biscuit recipe to die for! They use
yeast.

Ingredients:
1 package dry active yeast
2 teaspoons warm water
4 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening
2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda

Directions:
1. Sprinkle the yeast into the warm water in a small cup or bowl.
2. Stir and give the yeast time to get frothy.
3. Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
4. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
5. Cut in the shortening.
6. Mix the yeast with the buttermilk and combine this with the dry
ingredients.
7. Roll this batter out onto a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-
inch thickness. Cut with a biscuit cutter (a clean standard- size
can works fine).
8. Place each biscuit on a lightly buttered baking pan and bake 10-12
minutes until golden brown.
