Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

This fight is for everything.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

“But what about the lurkers?”

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

I’m more christian than these people and i’m an atheist.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

When we show up, we win.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

I got so excited earlier talking about corned beef and cabbage that I went to the store to buy some. Got there, and the corned beef was ridiculously expensive (I remember when it was $7 for a cut, the cheapest today was $20, so I went with a ham hock). Some carrots, some potatoes, a cabbage, the ham, and some parsley, and dinner is cooking as I write this. It smells so good. I love this meal, and it is soooo cheap, too.

At any rate, some pet pics, since it has been a while, some kitties:

And so I am not accused of anti-dog prejudice, this filthy and happy hound:

For a second, I was horrified when I thought that fellow was sitting on carpet, but it looks like he is actually on concrete. At any rate, claim your pets, folks.

    John,

    If you ever get to Indianapolis, you HAVE to stop at Shapiro’s Deli and get their Corned Beef and cabbage. It is spectacular and they also have a great cabbage roll.

    Their desserts are out of this world.

    Do you like pot pies? I generally don’t, but mine has just finished cooking. James Foods Chicken Pot Pie. It’s huge, 2.5 lbs. The total secret is to cover the thing with foil about half way in. Is there anything more disgusting in life than burned pot pie crust? I think not.

    I’ve been enjoying my $5.00 (on sale with 10% Ingels 6-bottle discount) Yellow Tail 2008 Pinot Noir (don’t touch the 2007!) and the Dietz & Watson aged NY cheddar with horseradish while the pot pie baked. And reading the last couple highly entertaining threads.

    John do yourself a favor and separate out the cabbage and potatoes. Cook up some bacon and reserve some of the bacon dripping. Make some mashed potatoes and stir in the chopped cabbage, cooked bacon and drippings. Fucking awesome isn’t really enough to describe it.

    EDIT: Are we ever going to get your review of the Bacevich book? I am interested in what you have to say. I just read it and it really was fascinating, but I will wait to read your analysis.

    I am descended from a train attendant on the original Burlington Zephyrs. Our family has passed down an old Burlington recipe from the days when the food in railroad diners was excellent.

    Today, you get some disinterested guy who looks at you funny when you tell him that the pizza he microwaved is cold. They used to have hot females pettling cigarettes on those trains. Now they say you can’t smoke because it will blow up old people’s Oxygen tanks. How we have fallen.

    Here you go in any case:

    2 lbs beef roast
    ¼ cup flour
    cooking oil
    ½ cup catsup
    ¼ cup brown sugar
    ¼ cup vinegar
    1 tbsp Worcestershire
    1 tsp salt
    1 cup chopped onion

    Cut beef into small squares, dredge in flour, then brown. Add everything else, bring to a boil and simmer for two hours. Serve over wide noodles. It is very good, enjoy.

    I think Kidman’s been using botox for quite a while. Just today I read a review of her new movie "Australia" and her performance was panned by the critic: (paraphrase) "she moved thru her scenes like a porceline (sp) doll."

    I think she overdoes it with the botox. It looks good when it’s done well.

    Last I checked, God was everywhere and can listen to your prayer at any time, hell you can work out and pray at the same time! Criticizing someone for picking the Gym over Church seems kind of stupid. Prayer can be done anywhere.

    In India, my uncle wouldn’t even stop while passing a temple and he’ll mouth off a couple of slokas and y’know.. he’s done. Duty finished..but then we’re supposed to pray in the morning and in the evening. (for Brahmins) But Brahminic rituals do not take into account wild frat parties so I find praying in the morning, and evening somewhat difficult.

Sure they may be exhausted at the end of a day, but it is good exhaustion. And yes, it does burn you out after a while. For me, in my stress-providing in abundance job, I lasted three years.

    (in my family, we always used ham instead of corned beef…Mom called it a "New England Boiled Dinner.")

    Us too! I wondered where the heck that came from, as we had Boiled Dinner a lot as a kid, but when I grew up, all I ever heard about was corned beef and cabbage. So I thought maybe it was some weird Acadian thing.

    Mmmmm, stuffed cabbage. MMmmm, chicken pot pie. Mmmmmm, beef stew.

    Stewed tomatoes?! Haven’t had them in 20 years — didn’t know anyone besides me liked them. Do you have them IN the mac’n’cheese or alongside? Betty Crocker 1950 has a recipe with the tomatoes IN, but I never tried it.

    God, my mouth is watering and it’s just after breakfast.

    The kitty with the toy kitty is cuteness overload.

    Ham hocks and black-eyed peas with a bit of okra. Artery clogging goodness.

    Jackie:

    Chamois is wonderful! How much do her rototiller services go for? In the spring I plan to create a garden in particularly rocky soil. How does she handle shale and quartz?

    And please, tell us she’s not on carpet. Is she?

    Aramink . . .what a curious name! No, she’s on our front step, not the carpet. As for her rototilling, she has a tendency to aim for the roots of perennials, so she comes cheap.
