My favorite song writer of all time.....

A lot of the "shitfests" on the other board in the politics section occurred partially because the rules allowed - "anything goes" basically. Occasionally it bled over into some of the other threads, but was for the most part managed. Then (because of one very distraught BM) the rules were changed. But IMO it was handled a bit uneven. But that's then, and it's over. Either way they lost many many good posters as a result. My point here.... Recognize how the initial rules are. Adjust as need be, if necessary. Do not change drastically because one or two BM's are having a hissy fit. If you are going to make changes do so carefully, and even handedly. Radical changes may be good in theory, but they do have consequences if not handled properly.

Im sure massive acid trips.

Article on P.I. cooking. Someone may find it interesting... https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/07/dining/filipino-food-recipes-angela-dimayuga.html?action=click&module=Editors%20Picks&pgtype=Homepage

looks perfect

All of that looks great ! Except the finished plate. ugh !

Sure would like to see a news link on that one.

Chicken livers in sautéed garlic butter is fabulous. I get it at least once a trip at that Lebanese place in CF. Along with some hummus and bread. Makes a great little meal.

Nice meal. Man I love Mackerel. Stuffed peppers are good also !

I agree. I don't have often. Probably because I have to buy frozen and I never seem to get around to it.

Me too !

It's an acquired taste. Just like scotch or ass.

Why do you say you don't think so ? The list has it number 2. I said one of the most. Jerk chicken is a type of Caribbean barbeque. Marinated and can be very spicy. It's awesome.

Actually (if I recall correctly)….It's one of the most consumed foods, if not the most, in the world.

Friend ? She's hot. And the food looks damn good !

Yep. Those homemade pots of sauce can go a long way. The last one I made was so good that I ate it for four days in a row instead of freezing some.

Nice. Looks like something you may find in Das Berliner. I've never had a bad meal in there. Top notch IMO.

Interesting. Never heard of them, and I'm a fish lover. I'll have to try some soon.

I agree proper, effective and competent training is critical. The trouble is training is one thing, many of the actual incidents that you train for rarely occur. Cops are human. "Riot police" are primarily routine cops from all various regular duties. Many of them normally doing routine tasks such as traffic enforcement, airport security, desk (administrative), investigations, on and on. Then abruptly they are positioned in extremely high stress circumstances and expected to perform flawlessly. It just ain't realistic. Many of them perform brilliantly. Some of them do not know how to measure responses (cannot think straight) under immense pressure. Then they are put under a microscope buy their "officials", the media, and the public. Eventually leading many of them (even the best) to wonder "why the f**k am I doing this". Reasons why the turnover rate, disabilities, etc. are so high. Also a reason why the cop suicide rate is one of (if not the highest) rates among any occupation. Most people do not have a clue as to what they are up against.

Nothing, and I mean nothing is more frightening and unpredictable than mob action. I have great empathy for those cops as they are the scapegoats and unfair targets for the chicken shit weak politicians.

I'm sure they were delighted ! 🤔

Nice ! That sauce looks tremendous. Almost as good as the last batch I made. 😍 I'd pass on the dessert. Need to watch my waste line.... 😋
