Hi Dave,


 RH>  musicians. I'll miss miss Gordon Lightfoot nearly as much as Osacar
 DD>  DRH>  Peterson..

 RH> Agreed about Gordon Lightfoot; he was good. Don't know about Osacar
 RH> Peterson tho.

 DD> Oscar was a piano picker of great talent.

 DD> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Peterson

 RH> Something for me to check out in my free time. (G)

 DD> Don't let them get you started listening to his music or you may not
 DD> haave any free time available. Especially the stuff he did with Clark
 DD> Terry.

Seeing as my free time is going to be rather limited for the next couple
of weeks, not even taking a computer with me, I won't be checking him
out any time soon. Closest thing to a computer will be my phone and my
Nook.

 DD>         8<----- JUMP SHIFT ----->B

 DD> Which means we'll lose Single Ruth and Weller if they ever deign to
 DD> re- visit the cooking echo. Doc's was their single source BBS.

 RH> Sigh! Maybe they'll pick up some other source. Meanwhile, it's getting
 RH> quieter and quieter around here.

 DD> I may be absent myelf. I'm running a 102+| feverand having trouble
 DD> breeathing. Gonna have my brother Uber me to Urget care .... first to
 DD> see if its Co-Vid (even though I'm vaxxed (twice) and have had all the
 DD> booster available. It may be somethingn else entirely - which is why I
 DD> go to the pros.

 RH> OK, hope it's nothing serious and I'll see you back around here before
 RH> I take off.

 DD> Well, It wassn't covid so we're going to present at Memorial Medical
 DD> Centre so they can figure it out. I'm thinks a severe U.R.I. possibly
 DD> pneumonia. Been coughing so much that all the muscles in my Thorax
 DD> are sore. Not to mention the chest pains that come and go.

No fun, I've had my rounds with that or bronchitis too many times to
recall. They've left me with a permanent chronic cough and I don't know
how many (at least 7) broken ribs over the years.

 DD>            Toothpicks
 DD>   1 1/2 lb Beef; thin cut
 DD>       1 lg Onion; chopped
 DD>     1/2 lb Bacon; chopped (easier to do
 DD>            - when still half-frozen)
 DD>       1 tb Olive oil
 DD>       1 c  Red wine
 DD>     1/2 ts Minced garlic
 DD>       4 c  Beef broth
 DD>       1 ts Liquid smoke
 DD>            Salt & pepper
 DD>       2 c  Cooked rice

 DD>   * NOT, by any means UDD

Stir fry some veggies to go with it and you have a pretty good meal. I
might cut out or reduce the liquid smoke tho; that stuff is strong.

 DD> ... America, where if you put mayo on a potato it becomes salad.

Over in Europe if you put mayo on a potato, it's a pomme frite. (G)
