No kidding! I know that magazines used to advertise that stuff heavily, too. Fred Flintstone with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth... now there's a visual! :eek:

This sounds very good. I haven't tried the Schillings yet. I have a good stroganoff recipe that I use (with beef cubes) but it really doesn't make too much. I like the sour cream part of it, too. I've only served it over noodles so far but I guess any kind of pasta would work.

I haven't! But it sounds very interesting for sure. I've just had it "straight up" until now... a wee bit of it directly onto the sushi. I think it's supposed to be mixed in soy sauce for dipping but I don't like soy sauce. :) I'm remembering the first time I had it not knowing what it was...

Ah yes, very true. A few months ago I found a cheap copy of Kids Say the Darndest Things with Art Linkletter from the... 60s I guess? And while it was fun to see, there were quite a few things said and done that would have never hit the airwaves today.

Actually it sounds like a wonderful show for kids! The milk drinking thing was brilliant, yes. :) And the train for good behavior... what kid doesn't love trains? Very clever indeed! We need a contemporary Engineer Bill, don't we?!

How strange! That's how used to it they are, I guess. Did anyone bother getting up to head for cover or just stay there and wait for it to pass? :eek:

Most of our Chinese/Japanese restaurants and buffets have it that way now. If it's on a menu, I'm not sure what all of them are called, but as far as I know, "California Roll" isn't the raw stuff, for one choice. As a tip here, though, California Roll is an American/Euro thing... don't order it...

Ah... I guess he doesn't like lobster then either with the butter dipping thing. :) I can think of better things to dip lobster in anyhow... that never made a lot of sense to me.

I'm not in an area that has the sirens... we get them here and get numerous warnings during the hot months, but I need to get warnings from the weather station or my emergency email. That would be soooo unnerving! :eek:

I really like sushi and had some yesterday... yum! Anyone else here like it? I don't go for the uncooked kinds, though... my sushi buffet offers only varieties that are not raw. Safety issues most likely. I like cream cheese and faux crab in there with the seaweed sheet and cuke stick. I...

I have to say that I haven't heard of Engineer Bill. I'm sorry to hear of his passing. Was his show a variety show like Cap'n Kangaroo, or something different?

That's a very good sentiment and a very good thing to teach children... I agree with that. Now how do we get people to actually teach it? :(

I don't have an office program but it certainly sounds like a great idea if it would work for me, yes. I had a little shareware/freeware many years ago with an old computer but that surely wouldn't run with the new OS's. Thanks for the idea... I'll check into how to do that.

Hey now that's what I call being prepared... a computer in the basement! Well, if you keep your electricity, that is! Ah... laptop with charged batteries?

A kindred spirit! :) I am so serious about this that I always run into a Winn-Dixie in Georgia's Golden Isles (Brunswick area) to buy Brunswick Stew. Maybe I shouldn't put this idea in your head or your husband will throw stuff at me :D but lately I've been shopping online with my...

I guess it's safe to assume that you won't be buying all the episodes on DVD then? :eek: hehe

I have to agree on that one! It was always just a bunch of spoiled kids to me who got everything they wanted and had a housekeeper doing the work they should have been helping out with. :D But didn't we all love Alice?!

I heard that, too... and I also heard they they usually know *exactly* where the line is about things such as what they can say in their websites and books (this guy had both)... the line that divides free speech and terroristic threats. Gentle Giant :( yes, I heard that he rushed to open...

I agree that it's extremely cool being able to see the old reruns, both on tv and all the DVDs of the old shows coming out now. Things we never thought we'd see again. Of course there are a few that are much better off staying in the past. :D

Yes... and if he was on the FBI's "radar" we keep hearing about, how was he moving about so freely? Then again, what would anyone expect of a man this age? I was so sure it would turn out that he'd been a German Nazi... that would fit the profile better even if he ended up living here after...
