Y’all do know, that there’s a book with a segment in it [that part is abso. true; I could photocopy the book to show ya] documenting Wile E. Coyote’s lawsuit against Acme Mfg. Co. for defective products, don’tcha??? It details the numerous injuries he sustained,
and the fact that said injuries caused him to be unable to pursue his career and earn wages, etc.
FUNNIEST THING I EVAH read. It’s rrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeally really marvelous; lots of very meticulous courtspeak and clauses and wherefores & such ….
PS: “books” were an archaic instrument of information,
which predated the E-book. They have paper pages and stuff.
I just ruined the chili I was going to make in my crock pot for the big game today by mis-reading the recipe and putting in way too much salt and am ridiculously upset about it. *sigh* darn.
(sulks off to the backyard to dig up some dirt to eat during the Big Dance)
Qod, I have done that before! It is so frustrating!
Is it possible for you to use a mesh strainer to wash off the beans or meat (not sure what kind of chili you’re making) to get rid of the salt? It worked for me…although I must admit redoing the sauce was a pain!
QofD,
You could also multiply the proportion of the other ingredients to match the amount of salt you used, get more ingredients and make a giant VAT of chili…
Run to the store and get a bunch of cans of Nalley’s Chile. Add some raw onions & mustard (and cheddar cheese before serving), warm it up in the crock pot, and they’ll never know you din’t make it from scratch. I LURVE NALLEYS CHILE!
Well, goodness. I thought the picture was bizarre in the first place. I didn’t even notice the car until you said that and then I looked again. What the heck is going on in this photo? Is this a toilet plopped (for some reason) in a car dealership showroom? And why is there a dog in it? And why is the toilet so painted? Why is there a yellow Y on the toilet?!! Why are there yellow flowers in the toilet’s tank?!! What’s happening here? HELP ME! (Now I have to go to the bathroom)
Oh Wow!! I couldn’t comment on this particular subject in the area where it was discussed because there was no more room to reply, but Theresa, thank you so much for that explanation of what kvelling and kvetching mean! I seriously loved reading that and learning something new. You are the coolest!!
And to stay on subject, why is there a dog in a toilet in a car dealership showroom? (As Eddie on Ab Fab would say, “hmmmmmmm sweetie darling? hmmmmmmm?”)
["Church Lady voice"]
…..”Well, isn’t that *Special*?????
Dana Carvey was on SNL this week and did a new Church Lady!
I don’t understand this photo.
Blame it on Acme Chicken Temps.

I dont’ care for toilet humor. ahahahhaha!!!
Okay so I am of the simple sort.
ok I have to know what the toilet says on the tank and WHY is a yorkie puppy sitting in it inside a car dealership?
It must say PARTY! (potty would be too, um, something)
Famous French poet Bowldelaire finds himself flush with ideas but unable to write because the previous poet used the last of the paper.
Symboliste poet humor! How much more licherary can you get, Sharpy?
er, she means 2600akley, ‘course!!!
(jist tryin’ ta help there, Theresa; hope that no toes were damaged)
No, I was akshally talking to Sharpy, who was kvelling about the book discussion a coupla days ago.
Is kvelling sort of like kivetching? And did I spell that right?
Actually, Kvelling is the opposite of kvetching!
Kvetching is what you do when you have tsuris, and kvelling is what you do when you have naches (not nachos).
Kvetching = complaining
Kvelling = rejoicing, having pride and joy. Hey, I guess you can have pride and joy in nachos!
I’d recommend “Furs du Mal” for anyone who isn’t familiar with Bowldelaire’s work.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
je m’excuse, Mme. Therese!!!

The usual cure for too much salt is to cook a couple of potatoes in the dish, and discard them when cooked through. They absorb salt like a sponge.
Thanks! I tried removing the top layer/straining method and adding potatoes sounds perfect! I’m going to try that. Thank you!
Beer. Lots of beer. It’s the only practical solution I’ve found for cooking disasters.
Baby-sitting ones, too.
baby-sitting beers? or baby-sitting cooking disasters?
Disasters while baby-sitting beer.
QofD,

You can try adding extra veggies… I have over-spiced chili before and saved it by throwing in an extra can of beans and a diced sweet potato.
Also you could serve it over something ‘bland’ like plain baked potatos or pasta. (Chili Mac!)

Puppeh is looking a bit flushed.
*groan*
Where might one find painted toilets, cars, and puppies all in one convenient location?? I’m intrigued.
I want the puppy AND the garage floor!
Why is the moderashion bot picking on me?
When in doubt, it’s *ALWAYS* safe,
to blame it on some random Conspiracy Theory.
You mean like how the guys from Red Dwarf got Kennedy to be gunman on the grassy knoll & therefore shot himself, thereby resetting the time stream?!?
Shoot himself, I meant…..let that be a lesson to you kids, never try to be clever whilst on cold medicine!
And I caught you with
Backfield in motion, yeah,
I’m gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby,
You know that’s against the rules.
Don’t flush, don’t flush!
Everything’s bigger in Texas.
is anyone else going to ask why there’s a car in the bathroom?
good qwershtyun. I’ma go, with this theory: ’tain’t, in actuality a bathroom; rather a decorative (if quirky) item and doggeh inside a Car Showroom.
Worth a try.

My earlier post EXACTLY! WHYYYY!!!!!????
You do realize this has been posted several times already, right?
Just stop it now. Back away from the video upload and no one will get hurt.
