AHOY PIRATES!

Yvonne Addario is seeking contributions to publish her book, “Explorers Cookbook & Travel guide – Pirate’s Edition.”

I’ve seen parts of this cookbook and it’s totally fantastic; she’s done an amazing job. Can’t wait to get couple copies for everybody I know who loves cooking, which will be available in some very neat venues.

In exchange for contributions, Yvonne offers totally kewl must have booty gifts for you pirates (see right side of this website).

http://www.kickstarter.com/profile/yvonneaddario

A pirate isn’t a pirate unless he’s got booty to prove it! You got booty? No authentic pieces of eight around your neck? ARRRRR!!!

Also, check out sexy SFRX – famed treasure hunters! Bring me that horizon! WEIGH ANCHOR AND HOIST THE MIZZEN SFRX !

Agreed. They're very close now.

Could they have spiked the tea??? {smile} Could be a more superior local variety.

Cousins sent some Carpathian walnuts from the tree in their back yard in Slovakia. Amazingly better than the English variety we're accustomed to. These could be cracked in the palm of your hand, and the flavor was much more delicate. Ground them up & made kipfels. Soooo good.

Just tried that few days ago. Nada. Only calmed me down enough to want to stay up longer, lol.

Ok, I'm out. TTYL. :)

Chamomile same daily-like family ... daisies, valerian, fever few, asters, sun flowers.

Ok, off to sleep before it turns into another 5AM night. My job wires me out too much. Docket and portfolio always running in the back of my mind ... did we get this, did so & so do that, yadda yadda.

Thought about a toddy, but alcohol over time becomes addictive; drugs same issue, so not an option. Any suggestions?

Too wired and couldn't sleep last night, so I took some valerian. Woke up this morning with big rash on inside of both arms. Apparently, I'm allergic to daisy-like flowers. Wonderful. Love daisies. They're so beautiful.

I hear the rumbling of rocket fuel.

GO SGGV!

Volume preceeds price.

FACTS ABOUT PHOSPHATE:
11th most abundant element.
Cannot be synthesized, and is non-renewable.
Essential to process of photosynthesis.
Absorbed thru soil (est. 1.5 bil lbs of P is absorbed per year).
Several types used in fertilizer, but in North America, Ammonium Orthophosphates, such as diammonium phosphate (DAP) and monoamonium phosphate (MAP) are dominant, as they contain Nitrogen (another needed fertilizer).


CAVEAT: THE ABOVE WAS COMPILED BY THIS USER AND IS NOT TO BE RELIED UPON. DO YOUR OWN DD.

My Dad had a voice like Pavarotti, only I venture to say it was probably better, albeit untrained. His grandfather was a Cantor in Greek-Catholic church. Made the church shake with his voice.

Always thought it would be kewl to learn to play a fiddle. :)

The anomaly is people seize on nothing companies because guy with cell phone at other end of ticker is a BS artist, and they don't understand the value of a serious corporation about to do something really substantive. Their loss. Our gain (when serious investors enter).

Issuance of the Business License occurred a lot sooner than I expected. SGGV must be on a fast track to production now. Previous PR said license would be issued just prior to commencement of production.

My brother had one of those. :)

Every day of life is like being in a fox hole. Never know when your time’s up. Should be ready to meet your maker.

Years back, drove from Seattle to So. Cal, and stopped in Oakland to see ex-fam. Was few years after quake; overpasses & stuff were still in ruins

Haven’t had pork in years, then when I did once, was like I put a tablespoon of lard in my mouth, spit, pewey, yeck!

Soy sauce, corn syrup, sake combine for nice teriyaki sauce. Good combo.

Here's a BBQ sauce recipe a pastor's wife gave me; she was from the midwest, one of those fantastic wholesome farm-like cooks. Use it mostly for cook-outs on chicken wings. Everybody really loves 'em.

Combine these ingredients in large pot, mix, and simmer on very very low for hour or so and marinate overnight.

Chicken (cut up, cleaned)
3/4 c. sugar
1/2 c. soy sauce
1/4 c. Teriyaki sauce
1/3 c. vingar
1 onion (diced finely)
1 clove garlic (diced finely)
1 Qt. clear soda or more (e.g., Ginger Ale), add enough to cover chicken

Grill chicken bating w/ Hunt's Honey & Brown Sugar BBQ Sauce.

Now that I'm in, they are permitted to make announcement.

I'm in!

Wow, talk about getting down on your hands and knees and thanking the Lord for back up. There must be a reason for you still being here after that!

Nah, forget AF. Navy has a better air force. My son thought about going seal, then pilot, but talked him out of it. He did the seal training as a SAR, but no underwater demolition.

EEEEECCCCKKSSS! You are not getting with 100' of my kitchen with that treif. Kosher kitchen. :)

Hey, one of my Japanese friends from work taught me how to make Teriaki sauce. Here's the recipe. You can get the ingredients in Asian cooking stores or international food stores. She said most Japanese people don't use Kikoman's because it's too salty.

1. Oriental Mascot brand Chinese cooking Wine (Mishiu)
2. Marudaizu Shoyu (soy sauce), by Yamasa Corp., Choski, Chiba, Japan
3. Sugar

Mix 1:1:1 ratio.
Refrigerate at least over night before using.
Will keep a couple months in refrigerator.
Fabulous!

Bet ya hope you never see another rice paddy in your life. Good you made it out if there whole/alive.

Watching show on development if stealth tech at Groom Lake. Pretty kewl stuff.

ehhh, my son does cuz he wants to. Only time I successfully threatened him is when I told him if he didn't do what I asked, I'd never make him another pyrohi as long as I lived. Should have seen his face, LOL. The POWER.

Whoooooohhhhh, very hot tamales!!!

I'm trying to get my son to sell me something he has, but he's not budging. But, my ace is time. All I have to do is wait until the next greatest thing. He's coming back from being at sea in 3 weeks. Test the water again. :)

You military / former?

Woo hoo! Need to get my pyrohi recipe out. Son will be returning from being at sea in next 3 weeks. Sooooo jazzed!!!

Yep, that's antipersonnel ammo if I ever saw it, lol.
