Cattle is raised, not produced.

Yes. It is not produced but raised.

a
home on the lake.

Just for fun I Goggled it, low and behold, it's still there after 46
years.

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

Used to be only one place out here in the west that had those great pickles
like the midwest. Not worth living in the midwest for the pickles, but I do
eat them when in Chicago.

Frozen custard.

There's a place out on Greenfield Ave and W. 57th (I'm doing this by

custard. My favorite is French Vanilla second to coffee.

To freakin' die for.

One of those items you just do not hear about anymore. Frozen Custard used
to be on lots of menus. I think the younger generation just has not been
introduced to a lot of different foods. Was at a buffet Thursday night in
an indian casino in Oroville. Girl asked her mom what an item was. Mom did

Occasionally they do let a decent marbled piece of meat through at the

Publix had rib roast on sale and they had a case full every day. I
managed to pick out a couple loin end pieces that were bordering on

Maybe I'll have to go on a mission and check the meat counters at

On the Republican side. He's the only candidate whose possible

he could beat either Clinton or Obama. He's very long in the tooth.
It's too bad Bush cheated him out of the nomination eight years ago. Had

On the Republican side. He's the only candidate whose possible
nomination concerns me, but even with that, I don't believe in the end
he could beat either Clinton or Obama. He's very long in the tooth.
It's too bad Bush cheated him out of the nomination eight years ago. Had
McCain been the POTUS, we wouldn't be embroiled in Iraq the way we are now..

I must admit it is sometimes kinda' fun to hear you make it up as you
go along. Most interesting is watching you defend completely opposite
opinions weekly depending on the political winds at the time, kind of
like Billary.. You know, never answer a direct question honestly,
ignore the ones you don't like, and dismiss (or kill in the case of
Billary) anyone who catches you lieing. They call it Arkansas
suicide...;)

The real problem with a Hillary vs McCain race is the anti-war wild
card. They may sink her with a 3d party "Gene McCarthy" sort of
candidate.


While McCain is the only Republican suitable for and qualified for the
White House, I just don't think he is palatable to the GOP base. More
and more, I think the GOP nominee will be the expensive empty suit and
haircut, Mitt Romney.

No one will be easier to beat nationally than Romney, unless it is the
candidate from Jesusville, Huckabee.

The hard-core hardcore Repubs, now that all the SUPERcons have fallen by
the wayside have a masturbatory fantasy of a McCain/Thompson ticket.
Great...a really old guy in the White House, backed up by a veep who is
actually already dead.
No McCain, no way.

I've told the state party and the national party they will get no
support from me unless and until McCain is out of the race.

Dude.

Now I have to put you in my Bozo Bin.

Um...

Do you happen to know where my Bozo Bin is?

Damn SWS, the key to a successful Bozo Bin is to set up two accounts.
Use one account that you filter (so you can print screen so you can
pretend you are filtering someone) and then actually read the other
account. It is best if you try to insult the people in your "Bozo Bin"
20-30 times a day.

If your tax return is so simple that a few extra 1099INTs screw you up
you probably don't invest much. You can do 1099s on the short form.
