    What's ailing you, girl?

    Until you're better, I'm going to say stick with light stuff such as soups and juices.

    Antibiotics can be nasty. I was once prescribed Erythromycin. I stopped
    taking it half way through the third day. It had turned my guts into
    something more like a urinary tract. It was wicked. In that short time
    I had already become dehydrated from the severe case of the trots. I
    knew that I needed to take liquids but it is hard to be motivated to do
    that when you know it's going to be streaming out of you in 5 minutes.

    Watching any video that has Brian Jones in it makes me sad. He's the outsider at

    If Jones had been less fucked up, we'd never have gotten to hear
    Richards-Taylor. Or Jagger-Taylor for that matter.

    Satanic Majesties was the last album Brian really participated on. I
    don't care what Jagger or anyone else thinks about that album. I like
    it. Beggar's Banquet was great. Then came three of the best albums ever
    made by anyone. When Sticky Fingers came out, my brother bought it on
    8-track tape. When I was 11, 12 years old, it was unquestionably my
    favorite album. When I was about 13 or 14, I bought Exile on vinyl. That
    was a lot of money for a kid that age, and the only song I'd heard off
    it was Tumbling Dice. It was a disappointment. I was musically mature
    enough at 11 for Sticky Fingers, but not for Exile even at 14. Every
    year I appreciated it more. When I was 16, I discovered the Sex Pistols
    and such, but that in no way displaced the Stones, Mott the Hoople, etc.

    For the past at least 40 years, I consistently thought of Sticky Fingers
    as my favorite record, and the two Taylor songs are my two favorites,
    Sway and Moonlight Mile. Right now, the Infiniti has Let It Bleed in the
    CD player, and the Yaris has Bowie's Diamond Dogs.

    Maybe you consider you yelling obscenities on a bar stage your hay day
    and that's why you're stuck in the past?

    "Yelling obscenities on a bar stage"? "Hay" day? "Stuck in the past"
    because I related stories about my lifetime love of the Rolling Stones'
    music, circa 1965-1974? You're just a little bitching sissy. You exist
    here to be a little bitching sissy. You post essentially nothing about cooking. You're a nothing. Like what I did or not, I *was* on bar

    who have more interesting lives than me, but there's no indication of
    that from their posts. I live life in the open. I don't lie, I don't obfuscate. Everyone who cares to know knows where I worked, where I
    live, what my FULL LEGAL NAME is, my DOB, my address, my wife's name
    (and what that beautiful woman looks like), what cars I drive, but more
    than that, what I cook, and I post links to pix.

    You are an anon troll, a little, bitch, sissy, anon troll. In most ways,
    other than your political ideology that I happen to be fairly aligned
    with, you are worse than the Casa Boner entity, whom I happen to on the opposite side of the spectrum from. You are just boring. If I seem

    Today for lunch, I made some chicken rice. The chicken was marinated
    in Kim chee base with a sauce made of dashi base, chicken stock
    powder, sugar, and pepper. Rice was washed and onions and bell pepper
    was added to the rice in a rice cooker. The chicken was added to the
    cooker which was turned on. Unfortunately, it tasted like Spanish
    rice. That's okay, I suppose. I like Spanish rice.

    The rice has that nice pilaf-like glisteny individual grain look to it.

    Your dishes are always interesting to me...except the poor baby octupus.
    🙁


    My mother-in-law made me a soup that was filled with baby octopuses. They were floating around in a fiery red soup. They weren't octopuses as we usually see them. The were stiff like all the muscles in their body were contracted. They looked terrified. Keeping them company in the aquarium of death were small baby
    fishes. They looked like regular fish and they were swirling around on the death
    currents. It's an image that will haunt me till the day I eat the big one in the
    sky.

    Oh please, who is "they"?
    "AI Overview
    The The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus concert
    film and album were produced by Jimmy Miller, Jody Klein, and Lenne
    Allik. (1968)
    Performance—which features the song "Memo from Turner"—was produced by Sanford Lieberson.(in 1970)"
    Not everything has to be a blame game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rolling_Stones_Rock_and_Roll_Circus
    The film was meant to be aired on the BBC, but the Rolling Stones
    withheld it, contending that they did so because they felt their
    performance was substandard; they were clearly exhausted after 15 hours
    of filming (and some indulgence in drugs).[6] It was Brian Jones' last appearance with the Rolling Stones; he drowned some seven months later
    while the film was being edited. Some speculate that another reason for
    not releasing the film was that the Who, who were fresh off a concert
    tour, upstaged the Stones on their own production.[7] The show was not
    released commercially until October 1996.
    Of course, at least it wasn't as bad as that movie
    that Bowie made.

    "The Man Who Fell To Earth?"
    Predictive of Musk. https://letterboxd.com/joshmatthews/film/the-man-who-fell-to-earth/
    The scenario is that the David Bowie character, an alien from an advanced civilization, has crashed on Earth by accident. He has no way to get back to his planet or communicate with his species. What's he supposed to do? Worse, he's haunted by dreams of his nuclear family whom he had to abandon in order to help save his species, as he was on a scouting mission. We see those dreams throughout the film.
    This character becomes a sort-of Elon Musk figure. To craft a spaceship that can get him back home, he needs to advance Earth to the point at which it's capable of producing such a craft. That means he's got to scale up the entire economy of Earth, advance material science by tenfold, scale up the energy output, etc.
    What a coup for Earth, but the alien, alas, is not fit for life on
    another planet. He doesn't age much at all -- his human counterparts
    age much faster than him, and since this movie spans decades, there's
    kind of a Benjamin-Button effect going on -- and yet his health does
    suffer badly.

    You really should try that recipe. It is surprisingly simple and the

    The acute accent gives us a dizzy spell.

    I wonder how many Americans have pronounced it Saint Jack.

    The same people that eat cocovan.


    LOL thinking of an old episode of Two Fat Ladies in the Kitchen where
    the made coq au vin. Clarissa was explaining the ingredients and said
    that it was important to use an old cock. Jennifer spoke up and said she
    was glad to hear there was some use for an old cock.

    I knew someone who met one of those two at a party in London. I believe
    it was Clarissa.

    Can It Taste Like Anything Else?

    Flat or Bland:

    Without minerals to
    stimulate your taste buds, your mouth perceives the water as empty or
    "heavy" in a strange way.

    Slightly Acidic:

    If distilled water sits
    exposed to the air for a while, it absorbs carbon dioxide, which turns
    into weak carbonic acid and can subtly shift the taste.

    Tofu is wonderful. You should eat it for every meal master. It might
    be key to your very existence.

    Other people might need or want other foods. You should quit pestering
    those that do not eat the exact same food as you do. Or, you can keep

    These days, most songs use obscene words (explicit lyrics.) That's just the way things are.

    Many rap songs are really nasty, but not all rap music is bad.

    One of my favorites is Bohemian Rap City.

    Nasty would be a good description of rap although some of it could be called the opposite of nasty. Rap's influence on the world is probably greater than any other American music genre. America has the whole world rapping.

    https://youtu.be/yCoCgB3eIU4?list=RDyCoCgB3eIU4

    I never thought about Winwood playing bass.>
    They released that dog, and buried Rock
    and Roll Circus, which was enjoyable. IMO, it should have been the
    other way around.

    Oh please, who is "they"?

    Jagger, et al.>
    "AI Overview
    The The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus concert
    film and album were produced by Jimmy Miller, Jody Klein, and Lenne
    Allik. (1968)

    Performance—which features the song "Memo from Turner"—was produced by Sanford Lieberson.(in 1970)"

    Not everything has to be a blame game.

    Of course not, but Performance was a dud. Yeah, the nudity/sex was provocative, but it just wasn't a good movie. It's funny that Jagger supposedly felt upstaged by The Who. I mean, they played a song that I
    find rather boring--A Quick One, While He's Away. They could have played
    so many other songs. It's like Townsend wanted to promote the song. The
    Stones were fine. I watched the whole movie this evening. Jagger's
    vocals were great. The only time it dragged was during Yoko's wailing,
    and indeed, during A Quick One, While He's Away.>
    Of course, at least it wasn't as bad as that movie
    that Bowie made.

    "The Man Who Fell To Earth?"

    Yes. It was a waste of however long it took to watch it. I could, and
    have, happily listened hundreds of times to many Bowie songs, but
    watching that movie once was more than enough.

    I never thought about Winwood playing bass.
    Multi-talented, as brilliant on keyboards as guitar.
    They released that dog, and buried Rock
    and Roll Circus, which was enjoyable. IMO, it should have been the
    other way around.

    Oh please, who is "they"?

    Jagger, et al.
    Low blame vector then.
    "AI Overview
    The The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus concert
    film and album were produced by Jimmy Miller, Jody Klein, and Lenne
    Allik. (1968)

    Performance—which features the song "Memo from Turner"—was produced
    by Sanford Lieberson.(in 1970)"

    Not everything has to be a blame game.

    Of course not, but Performance was a dud. Yeah, the nudity/sex was provocative, but it just wasn't a good movie.
    No, in fact his pacing was worse than his turn as Ned Kelley.
    It's funny that Jagger
    supposedly felt upstaged by The Who. I mean, they played a song that
    I find rather boring--A Quick One, While He's Away. They could have
    played so many other songs. It's like Townsend wanted to promote the
    song. The Stones were fine. I watched the whole movie this evening.
    Jagger's vocals were great. The only time it dragged was during
    Yoko's wailing, and indeed, during A Quick One, While He's Away.
    No more Yoko!
    Of course, at least it wasn't as bad as that movie
    that Bowie made.

    "The Man Who Fell To Earth?"

    Yes. It was a waste of however long it took to watch it. I could, and
    have, happily listened hundreds of times to many Bowie songs, but
    watching that movie once was more than enough.

    Yet it was predictive as so much sci fi tends to be.
    Truman Show much?

    You can always spice it up with a little tofu.

    Then it would taste like rice and tofu. Each has its own flavor.
    Only distilled water has no flavor.


    I think you would have to agree that they are both fairly bland. Both
    need something to spark them to life. I say that as someone who likes
    Cream of Wheat, oatmeal and grits.

    If I had to eat a whole meal of nothing but plain rice -- yes, that
    would be a little dull. A few bites along with and at the end of an
    otherwise savory meal is just right. A pleasing contrast.

    Tofu needs salt. A drizzle of soy sauce on cold tofu is sufficient,
    although a fully composed dish featuring tofu and vegetables is even
    better.

    Somen is a hot weather food too. It's served on ice. I just pour the cold dashi broth on the noodles instead of dipping. Wasabi is served on the side. I love that stuff.

    means you don't need to add sugar to the actual drink.

    You really should try that recipe. It is surprisingly simple and the

    I had some shells from some frozen stuffed scallops. They look real but they're
    some kind of manufactured product. I can't tell what they're made of or how they were made. Usually, something like this would be cast but there's no evidence of being a casting. Normally, I would assume these were real shells but they're all exactly the same. I was keeping them but threw them away because
    not knowing what they are is kind of weird.

    Of course it's not really wasabi, but your troll doesn't know that.
    He's never had wasabi, not even that super common S&B imitation stuff.

    When I was growing up, we didn't have any wasabi. No problem, we uesd Chinese hot mustard instead. We used Colman's Mustard. Somehow it turned Chinese when we
    made it. We didn't see any wasabi until the 70's - when Japanese style sushi came to Hawaii. After mixing up the mustard powder with water to make a paste, my dad told me to turn the container upside down and let it sit for a short while. I guess that's the part that makes it Chinese.

    I still eat hot mustard with saimin. You have to eat saimin with hot mustard mixed with shoyu. You also eat the mustard/shoyu with Chinese food. For
    sashimi and sushi we use wasabi. Eating raw fish local style, we use mustard
    If we eat raw fish Japanese style, it's wasabi. Life is beautiful.

    That's a darker wasabi than I'm used to seeing, almost Guacamole
    green.

    That's S&B wasabi in a tube.

    TY.

    It looks kind of weird but I don't mind
    since it's pretty potent stuff. I've had real wasabi in the tube
    but I prefer S&B because The real stuff is mild in comparison.

    I make mine from their powdered mix:

    It looks a bit less 'bright':

    When I was growing up, we didn't have any wasabi. No problem, we uesd
    Chinese hot mustard instead. We used Colman's Mustard. Somehow it
    turned Chinese when we made it.

    Wow, that's a trick I used too - cold water and a small dash of rice
    wine vinegar made it best.

    We didn't see any wasabi until the
    70's - when Japanese style sushi came to Hawaii. After mixing up the
    mustard powder with water to make a paste, my dad told me to turn the container upside down and let it sit for a short while. I guess
    that's the part that makes it Chinese.

    Why not?


    I still eat hot mustard with saimin. You have to eat saimin with hot
    mustard mixed with shoyu. You also eat the mustard/shoyu with Chinese
    food. For sashimi and sushi we use wasabi. Eating raw fish local
    style, we use mustard If we eat raw fish Japanese style, it's wasabi.

    Kieth Richards used to play a lucite Ampeg - had to be heavy, but he
    also was in pretty decent shape. Slide-in pickup changes - very cool.




    As he is reported to own more than 3000 guitars, I would be more
    surprised if he hadnt played one at some point

    I'm not saying the Stones were bad. I'm saying that there's still good
    music being made to this day. It's just harder to stay up to date
    because the charts are full of crap. Taylor Swift, for instance, is
    candy for girlies.

    Those Avett Brothers, based on that one song, are a bit hickish for my
    taste, but I don't hate it.

    Just because we're getting old and are out of the loop, doesn't mean
    all current music is bad. There are alternative radio channels on the
    Internet. I'd listen to them a lot if I was working on my own.

    I have drink mix for cucumber agua fresca. I'll have to make
    the real stuff soon.

    And watermelon agua is awesome too, especially with kiwi fruit
    added.

    https://www.cherryonmysundae.com/2020/06/watermelon-kiwi-agua-fresca.html
    All you need to make this recipe is fresh watermelon, kiwi,
    mint, and lime. The sweeter the watermelon and kiwi, the better because that means you don't need to add sugar to the actual
    drink.





    Somen is a hot weather food too. It's served on ice. I just
    pour the cold dashi broth on the noodles instead of dipping.
    Wasabi is served on the side. I love that stuff. Sometimes
    I'll cook soba noodles instead. It's made with buckwheat and
    is brown in color. It's served the same way - it's all good.
