Weekend Roll Call 11-2-24

[kcdave]

We are now less than 3 days away.
Although, as I eluded to last night, I may well be
posting the WRC next weekend without a clear
cut winner. We do know for certain, either the
yam will win, or he will be declaring that it was
rigged and that he really won regardless.
Half of the world is out to get the yam.
Voting systems only work against the yam.
Millions of illegal votes are only cast against the yam.
Blah, blah, blah.
In all seriousness, many millions of Americans
(including many of our sordid clambake members)
will go against good common sense, against their
true patriotic duty, and against plain old human
decency to vote for the yam. They do this for a myriad
of reasons as a whole, but most will do it for just a
few reasons. They like how he bucks trends and
defies norms. They actually believe the bullshit that
he is trying to sell them, and they have been brainwashed
to believe that things were so much better when he
was in office the first time.
In a nutshell, yam voters will burn, piss on and trample
upon our flag, our constitution, bill of rights, and everything
our country stands for in order to save 25 cents on a gallon
of gas or a cheese burger. They want to MAGA- you know,
back when nogs and tranny's knew their place.

As I have said repeatedly before... presidential elections have
very little impact on my and the average person's life. Shitty one's
may make you tighten your belt. The decent one's go unnoticeable,
and we have never had a great one in our lifetime, if ever. If your
life was much better when the yam was in office than now, chances
are YOU have done something to fuck it up. It wasn't JB ... and
vice-versa.

Stepping off of the pulpit now .....

No MOW. All of my quality meme sources are all election, all the time
right now. Regardless of our affiliations, I think we can all agree that
we are all currently suffering with election fatigue.

Pretty much a rainout on tap for FOC. Good time to take care of
a few things indoors that have been overlooked.
No Chiefs until Monday night - and that has a really good chance of
rain also. Kermit has played well in the rain before and I expect him
to do the same on MNF. KC is currently favored by 9.5 points. I will
avoid the embarrassment that I have subjected myself to frequently
this year, and not even waste your time suggesting how you should
bet on this game. I will simply be content knowing KC will win outright,
be 8-0, and only 99 days away from the 3pete.

Happy weekend, Y'all.

Off to go surfing at the patch... Dawn patrol!

November has always been one of my favorite months, weather changes and it is time to go deer hunting, football season going strong. Then of course is Thanksgiving with family and friends, and old favorite recipes get used again.

There will be an office Thanksgiving and I'm going to make a crab mornay. This stuff is phenomenal, when I make it, I'll probably do a short PET and put it into the cooking forum. Several similar versions online but this is the concept:




Well, I've had a pretty good run lately, I haven't had a surgery in 3 or 4 years. But something tells me it won't be long again. Annual check up showed elevated PSA, go to the urologist, he says time for MRI, which will be in about a month. Considering that and certain symptoms, it would not be surprising if doc decides to Rotor-Rooter my prostate again, we'll see.

The Kiwanis Pancake Festival is this morning at LSU, an annual event that I've been going to for decades. Python are you going?

Had to buy a washer and dryer this week. Ours are still running, but it is pretty obvious that they are about to die, even after being repaired a few months back. Look at the reviews on Consumer Reports, evidently LG is making some good ones these days, so that's what I bought. Hopefully will not have to buy another set in this lifetime.

Next Friday, we're headed to Fort Worth and will get to attend the TCU game the next day. Might get to see some of my old lacrosse teammates and also some old frat brothers. Go Frogs!

Wife is waking up, time to make her coffee and take the little dogs for a walk. Then make CFB picks. Y'all have a good one.

Rack your recipe. Might have to give it a try.

But I would substitute Gruyère for Swiss. And why not make a roux with the butter and flour before adding the onions?

And good luck with the health issues. We are getting old, amigo.

[Roux]

Gruyère is sometimes used, and yes, you do make a blonde roux. Really just cooking it enough to where you don't smell the flour anymore, you don't want a dark roux like you use in a gumbo.

Outstanding recipe, one that is used in the holidays in south Louisiana. Usually an hors d'oeuvre but you can make (a very rich) main course with it, especially when you add shrimp and/or mushrooms to it. This is one of those things where people say holy shit what is THIS and how come you haven't given me the recipe yet

[88BuckeyeGrad]

Imatryit.

Which one is Liz Cheney?

[Mikey]

I’m definitely not voting for her.

[88BuckeyeGrad]

I’m definitely not voting for her.

I think both of them are equally likely to stand up pee.

Excellent!

I wish I had your seafood chops. For me it’s pretty much just putting it on the grill and making sure I don’t overcook it.

Good luck with the health issues. Getting old does suck. I need to get scheduled for an MRI in January to make sure that the PC is still gone.

We just signed a contract to have most of our 35 year old windows and doors replaced, probably happening in December. Of course that means we’re going to have to repaint all of the trim and, consequently the eaves and rain gutters. Going to Lowe’s today to look at color samples which, for me, means mostly nodding in agreement.

Wise man. Happy wife, happy life.
