    The Chief died?

    Can someone please point me to a thread about it? It should be easily avalilable to see on both the old and new layouts. I haven't been here in a long time, and tbe BEST of us died. I can find nothing but a friend's message.

    What's the last movie you watched?

    Could be. We are simpatico in every sense. I was in a hotel for work (short turnaround less than 8 hurs between shifts) and had time to kill while I was supposed to sleep. The sweet little love story filled the time.

    What's the last movie you watched?

    Lol. Wait. I hope we're talking about the Emma Thompson flick. My wife makes fun of me for liking chick flicks like Last Christmas, and Bridesmaids. My defense is Ars Gratia Artis.

    What's the last movie you watched?

    Well, yeah. The queen of dragons falls in love with a perfectly romantic ghost. Duh. Old story. Ever hear of the Ghost and Mrs. Muir? Lol, one of my recent faves, Last Christmas.

    Dishwasher detergent that won't completely dissolve

    Pods are expected to completely dissolve in hot water, but it looks like there isn't enough flow/spray/pressure. How old is the unit? What brand? It could be the pump is dying, which isn't worth replacing. Buy a new one. We ordered a new dishwasher on Black Friday (the day after American...

    What's the last movie you watched?

    I'm watching Facing Ali. It's a documentary of interviews with 10 boxers that faced Muhammad "Cassius Clay" Ali. If you are a fan of "The Sweet Science", no matter what you think of Ali - pro or con, this is a good watch. My son is about to have his first MMA "smoker" fight in a couple of...

    Dishwasher detergent that won't completely dissolve

    Check to make sure you're getting good water pressure to the machine. Also, check the water input line. There might be a screen in the connector that is getting clogged, thus reducing input flow.

    Is grating salt rock just a gimmick?

    Oh, yes, I understand, pepp. I liove kimchi, and durian, and the stinkier the cheese, the better. Although I'm not a fan of ammonia tadting foods, like shark, and overripe brie. And I won't go out of my way for kombucha. I remember having a strange German wine at a wedding once that was only...

    Petty Vents

    Apologies for the profanity, PF. It was for effect. Anyway, getting back to squares. My car battery died again yesterday. I bought this car 3 years ago, and the first battery only lasted 2 years. This one lasted only a year. The last time, my car was stuck in the city overnight with 2 windows...

    Is grating salt rock just a gimmick?

    Lol about the asafoetida, or Devil's Dung. But the black salt that I got smells terribly of rotten eggs. Like the way the Chief stores a dozen eggs in a sunny widow for a couple of months before Halloween, for chucking at cars and trick-or-treaters. I can't imagine wanting that taste in...

    Official Dinner Thread for Tuesday the 22nd

    Oh man, that looks good. I think the chef did, too. There's a half an egg missing... lol. I didn't know that Jonah Crabs are indigenous to the North Atlantic, but apparently they go all the way from Canada to Florida. I always thought of them as a southern thing.
