You know, my wife is a fine cook, but she really is not very adventurous in the kitchen.  She generally cooks the same old things.  I'm the one who likes to dig through the cookbooks, find something new to try.

But out of nowhere, last night I came home and she had cooked a quiche.  And it was damn good.  :mmm:

I didn't realize the question was still in doubt.

Hey, he hunted that quiche down and killed it with his bare hands first.

Didn't think quiche lived above the tree line.

I've been posting a lot on the old EUOT.  It's kind of nice when my posts are the rational ones.  It is amusing when someone rants about why English should be the only language but misspells every other word.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

An Irish Airman Foresees His Death

I know that I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above;
Those that I fight I do not hate,
Those that I guard I do not love;

My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan's poor,
No likely end could bring them loss
Or leave them happier than before.

Nor law, nor duty bade me fight,
Nor public men, nor cheering crowds,
A lonely impulse of delight
Drove to this tumult in the clouds;

I balanced all, brought all to mind,
The years to come seemed waste of breath,
A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death.

-William Butler Yeats


Cast a cold eye on life, on death and have a happy St. Patrick's Day.  :)
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I couldn't find my orange button-down shirt this morning, so I settled for a green one. :rolleyes:

Wearing orange on St. Pattys day is like wearing a white hood on Martin Luther King's birthday.

Wrong.  It's ok to mock the Irish. :)
