Smartie's Bar & Grill #68

It's not a Northern thing.More Southern or Deep South.
I never had Gumbo as a kid growing up.Many,many fine dishes by
my Mom,a good cook who also taught part time as a Home Economics
teacher.I also never had Hungarian Goulash.
Even though a very good friend of mine had 100% Hungarian
ancestry.Most all his relatives died young as they were very nutty.
Either dopers or heavy alchy's.

 

I really, really miss Perch. Do the peeps still eat that?

Oh, and I miss the church pierogi sales too.

 

You're not visiting Chicago are you Sugah.

As that half inch of snow/ice turned out to be 3-5 inches. Today Central Illinois is going to be seeing Temps in the negatives.

We are suppose to only see some light dusting. Bout an inch, inch and half.

 

Good morning bar peeps. Dallas got spared the worst so we're opening at 10. In other news, Im taking a break from this forum. May or may not be back. Feel free to enjoy the bar... just make sure you dont try to ruffle any feathers since thats now against the rules here.

Adios, amigos.

 

Okay Sugah.....but you need to come back. As there is only one.....

 

Well just DOG GONE IT.

 

Shameful !!

My Lai in South Viet Nam comes to mind too.

 

Col. Sanders does breading best with his original recipe for fried chicken.

I grew up on that greasy crap. So I love it.

I don't like anything else breaded.

 

I LOVE potato/leek soup.

Tastes especially good with a slice of melted cheese over it too.

Just put the slice on it and let it melt.

 

Experiment with new dishes prepared in good ethnic restaurants. Then find a recipe. The Afghans use okra well.

 

As I recall the warrant officer had to theaten to fire on Calley before the executions stopped.

 

I am nice to everyone here - and you can see how much they love me.

 

Me luv you long time. Of course I have luved SMW a long long time. Like over 4 or 5 forums.

 

And that is as good as it gets.

 

... On Calley and on all his Soldiers.

A minigun on a chopper speaks volumes.

 

That is what it took to stop it.

 

In the case of My Lai you had complicity on the part of the local population and also hate and revenge on the part of the U.S. Army Soldiers though.

Supposedly the Captain of the company gave the massacre order and the lieutenants carried it out.

Reminiscent of the U.S. Cavalry massacres of Native American Indians on the plains in the 1800's.

 

See Milgram - Obedience to authority.

 

They were unable to convict the captain. Calley should have been executed.

 

I,on the other hand DO NOT USE the Ignore Feature.
I think it is bratty.Little Prissy girl territory.
Imagine a Clark Gable or John Wayne or a Jimmy Stewart
using some Ignore feature.
Real men are not afraid to voice their opinion or hear
other's opinion.
This is an invention of the Internet and it's budding popularity.

 

I agree and like you Foolardi.....I don't have any on ignore. Tis mostly identified with leftists.

Of course, the Nube doesn't know who is who or who are close friends either.

 

Calley should have asked for Medina's supposed order in writing. Nobody believed that Medina would have given such an order and rather believed that Calley was lying about having received it. Calley may have misunderstood Medina. Medina was probably referring to wiping out the males not the women and children.

Good Ole' Colin Powel was a major at the time and he tried to cover up the war crimes with his investigation. That's why he never ran for POTUS -- it would have been disclosed.

 

Using Ignore on a message board is like dining out at a fine
restaurant and ignoring both your waiter and the maitre'd.
Then making a big deal and calling the maitre'd over to argue about
the mandatory 15% added Tip { Gratuity } when you see your bill.
Rube are a dime a dozen on Message Boards,they are.

 

Joseph Cotton chose well when he Married Starlet Patricia Medina.
Her sultry hair and dazzling smile carried her to stardom in many
a B Movie.She and her hubby spent their swan years almost inseperable
and often abroad.A testament to True Love and having a soulmate.
Say's I.

 

Using ignore and attempting to throw some blame on another Publicly not knowing whats up between people.....puts that into the perspective it is.

Although, I now nipped that Bullshit in its budding form.
