Most of you lot are old enough farts to enjoy Rush. They are coming to Raleigh to play on Friday, May 3rd. I'm taking Alex to see them. Anyone else up for joining? Could it be a Rush Thread Summit?

...towel off, eh? i'll drive over in my red barchetta!!!

You mean like our Red Barchetta?

...when you fire up the willing engine, does it respond with a roar?...

Is this the Porsche lovers circle jerk convention?

You're obviously too young for Rush, Yuri.

Hi all,
The new 2012 movie "Red Tails" is very bad one... the planes in it move "arcade style" without regard to physics and actual history depicted is, well, distorted...
The older Movie (where Cuba Gooding Jr. also starred) "The Tuskegee Airmen" from 1995 was 100x better IMHO!
Leo "Apollo11"

I know, Leo. I wasn't thinking so much of historicity as socio-nonsensicality. Ok, as an historical movie, it sucked, but I liked it for its portrayal of the peculiar camaraderie that existed among African American soldiers. I liked a lot of Red Tails in that regard. Ok, I'm wierd.

Ok, so get 4-5 decent russet potatoes (not the mongo steak ones, just the normals). Scrub them with the food brush, and slice them into french fry portions (skin on). Put them in a bowl with 2 Tbs sugar dissolved in water to just cover the potateos. Wait 1 hour.

Drain and put back in bowl. Add 1 Tbs Sea or Kosher salt (very important) and a teaspoon of sage, thyme, rosemary (your choice) and a Tbs, or so, of finely ground Romano. Let sit for 1/2 hour. If you are really into it, mix the Romano with some breadcrumbs.

Let it breathe and fester and then fry it in oil. Not a lot, just enough to crisp it up.

Oooh, good stuff. Works for red snapper, too.

Whoops, forgot, need to put 2 Tbs of red wine vinegar (or equivalent) into the potatoes just before they are done (maybe 2 or 3 minutes out).

Need to serve the fries with a malt vinegar, mayonaise combo, kinda like how the Belgians do it.

I'll give you a hint. It involved a retrograde portion of your anatomy that wasn't very smart.

Just vinager, the sweet sort, balsamic, or the black vinager the chinese serve with dumplings, is great with potatoes.
A very nice recipe is cold potato salad with truffles. Ideally, you'd want 3/4 potatoes (boiled with skin and then peeled, rattes would be best for that), 1/4 truffles (served raw), with a dash of balsamic vinegar.

Until you've tasted that, you don't know why truffles are so expensive. Once you've tried, you're suprised they're so cheap.

Good morning.

VDay is one of the most worthless, biggest exuse to spend money, holidays. Have fun for all you who celebrate it.

I celebrate the same thing the other 364 days a year with my loved ones, why is today any different?

Because it's a designated day to spend money , and females have been conditioned to expect a suitable response?

Ignore it at your peril!

I see it as an opportunity to gain extra MBP's. (Maritial Bargaining points....Always useful to have a surplus!)

Surely, Jeff, you of all people can understand downside hedge protection? A valentine's day card (and flowers) is cheap downside put protection for your 'long' positions.
