Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Always Anti-fascist!

I watched "The French Connection" and, if "The Wild Bunch" is David Simon's favorite movie, I bet I know what the other one was. I totally believe that whole Golden Age thing, but most of Netflix slagged it for slowness. They're stupid.(Stop me from writing a '70s Wirefic because I'm too busy and not craxy enough to write even more junk that nobody gets. Right?) I'm just drinking grape pop, though.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Interesting. When do you add them?
Personally? I saute the mushrooms until I am pleased with them, toss in a can of cannelini beans and warm them up, then toss in the spinach until it wilts. If you let the beans and mushies simmer together for a bit though, it gets kinda creamy and just very deliciouser. But I always toss in the spinach at the very end.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My dinner was pizza. I don't cook.

People don't understand the extent of what I mean when I say, I don't cook. I'm the person who lived in her last apartment for two years efore someone gently told me that the little drawer under the stove was not for pan storage; it was the broiler.

It's a multi-tasker, it can do both...

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Every stove I've had, it's been for storage.

I don't think I've ever had one where it was a broiler.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You had pans? I knew a guy at my old job whose father came to visit once and had to go out to the store and buy a frying pan so he could make some eggs.

It's been the broiler in most of the ovens I've had, but not all.

Okay, so I feel a little less dumb. A little. And I do have a frying pan.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

In my experience, most of the stoves I've had with a separate broiler were gas stoves. Electric stoves tend to have a combo oven/broiler and you just adjust the shelves to where you want them.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I use my broiler a lot because it's my preferred method for cooking meat. Flames + meat = yum.

Yesterday at the market I picked up lamb steak. They said it was a center slice of leg of lamb, but it was basically a steak and fairly cheap (like, $3). Anyway, I've usually gotten bigger (more expensive) lamb broils, but took a flyer on this.

It was great! Marinated it in Worcestshire, S&P and ran it under the broiler 5 mins per side (it was fairly thin cut). Then did it french style and tossed on a pat of butter. So tasty!

That may explain my confusion. I'd always had an electric stove, and when I got a gas stove, I was a little scared of it. It's fire! In the house! It's gas, on fire, in the house! I didn't trust it.

And then there was the woman down the hall two summers ago who left the gas on and it seeped all through the building and caused a panic and an evacuation, and my helicopter medevac experience. Gah. Gas appliances do not make me very comfortable.
