Dinner Plans for This First Day of November 2024?

[ItsJoanNotJoAnn]

Did the trick or treaters wear you out and you've
decided to go out for dinner? Or are you staying
home cooking or just snacking this evening?

Here it is going to be green beans, diced ham, and
cubed very small red potatoes all into the pot. In
the pot is also chicken broth, two tablespoons of
onion flakes, salt, and a couple of light shakes
of red pepper flakes and a dash or two of garlic
powder. This will be simmered for about an hour,
uncovered and a skillet of cornbread with round
out this meal.

That sounds really good, just some bacon cheese burgers
off the weber kettle here tonight.

Glad to share, not into the cheese part, eh?

Today was better, baby back ribs on the pellet
smoker, it's just a small unit called an A Smoke-

https://asmokegrill.com/

It does a fair job of temp control and it's almost
a set and forget deal, so long as it has the pellets
in it, but it's not the best at adding smoke flavor,
so I use a smoke tube with it, sometimes.

Other times smoke taste isn't that important depending
on what your cooking, as I'm sure you know. Best part
is it's portable and barely uses much electricity.

I'm just going to scramble up 4 or 5 eggs, toast a few english muffins,
and call it supper.

That sounds a lot like our supper this evening. I heated up a quarter
ham (precooked cryovac packed from the freezer) in a casserole dish with
cubed red potatoes from the garden, plus onion diced. No cornbread,
unfortunately, I wish I thought of that earlier.

Pneunomia? That doesn't sound like fun. I'm fine, thanks. I baked a

pork loin chops simmered in brown gravy to be served with egg noodles
and butter beans.

It surely isn't fun. We've learned a lesson about ignoring a cough
until we can't breathe.

I saw your cauliflower recipe, and it looks good, I might have to try
that. I've only had it steamed or boiled, and I didn't care for it.
Buttered egg noodles are on the menu tonight, and I need to figure out
what else.

Sorry to hear about the pneumonia. I had it once when I was bout 25. It
was no fun at all. I am not even sure which was worse, the pneumonia or
the prescription cough syrup. I had a hard time getting that stuff down
and keeping it down. I was laid up for more than a week and it took me
months to fully recover. A couple years after that my wife ignored
symptoms and ended up with pleurisy.

I've always had allergies, so I ignored it too long. The doctor at the
hospital told me that he's seen a number of cases with young healthy
people having pneumonia this year, for some reason.

Out of ground beef, but that's a good thought for later, the kids like

Perhaps you should get the vaccine. And the one for RSV.

Did they tell you whether it was Mycoplasma? That's having a
big outbreak this year.

The same is on offer here, John has both together with
no ill effects. The first time I had both I felt very
unwell for 48 hours after, so since then I have my flu and
covid boosters done separately a fortnight apart. With no
side effects from either.

I thought that those two caused me to feel really tired the following
day when I had them last fall. However, when I checked the records, I
had had the RSV shot with the flu shot. Apparently, one shouldn't get
the RSV within 2 weeks of the flu and covid ones.
I received the flu and covid shots 3 weeks ago with no ill effects.

Cauliflower seems to be one of those things people either like or don't
like. The seasoned breadcrumbs add a bit of crunch. The recipe is from
one of the 1950's versions of the Betty Crocker cookbooks.

As for my pork chops with egg noodles, I might just change my mind. I
have to wait to see what I really have a hankering for. It's still
early. :)

We are doing 'Ugly Chicken' and sides are rice and sauteed asparagus.

Ugly chicken tastes divine but lives up to it's name. 2chicken leg
quarters are simmering with a lot of Goya Adobo seasoning and a blend

it was pretty simple here tonight, i had some leftovers
(some rice, vegetables, chicken teriyaki bits) and then
finished off the cole slaw which had a mustard, vinegar
and a bit of brown sugar on it. Mom had decided the other
day to make it with plain mayo and there was no flavor to
it at all so when we finished that meal she said she'd
had enough so i took it and rinsed it off in cold water
and added apple cider vinegar, brown sugar and mustard -
much better.

The newer version of T-bird takes a bit of getting used to. I don't

Thank you! I think I've been gone since early this year. After my
visit to Joan around early May, I hoped in to read the group, but some
of the replies I read were just flat disgusting, so I turned around and
left without posting.

I think the last version for Win7 is 115. I thought about finding my
old version, but it was glitching and sending error messages on most
e-mails, to the point it was becoming not usable. I'll try with this
newer version for a while, but I really should just learn how to use
Linux and ditch Windows all together.

There's been a troll invasion and dense or lonely people, like dsi1
and cshenkie, feed those trolls.

It's good that you keep track of such things, that's forward thinking,
and a very productive way to spend your days in here.

Master has a real hard on for officer dave, Uncle Tojo, and carol shenck.

Bruce is very diligent. He has profiles on every single poster to rfc.

Nice to see you back in RFC. Things have gotten crazy since your
earlier postings, with no end in sight.
Your old version of Thunderbird is still available, but have no idea
how well it will work with a newer version of Windows.
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/3.1.20/win32/en-US/Thunderbird%20Setup%203.1.20.exe
To download a different old version, drill down to your choice
starting from here -
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/
The latest extended support release (esr) is 128.4.0esr

Thank you! I think I've been gone since early this year. After my
visit to Joan around early May, I hoped in to read the group, but some
of the replies I read were just flat disgusting, so I turned around and
left without posting.

  I haven't really been near my desktop
computer in months, but I have a new laptop, so I figured I'd check in
here;  Hopefully more often.  I'm not enjoying this new version of
Thunderbird, though.

I think the last version for Win7 is 115. I thought about finding my
old version, but it was glitching and sending error messages on most
e-mails, to the point it was becoming not usable. I'll try with this
newer version for a while, but I really should just learn how to use
Linux and ditch Windows all together.

Thunderbird is really an email client that just happens to do usenet
as an afterthought. There are better usenet clients out there.
Since you have to learn a new Thunderbird, maybe you should switch to
a better news reader and learn that. Agent 8 is pretty much
abandonware at this point, but is still one of the best. There are
keys available on the 'net to activate it (rumour has it the Forté
web site won't accept payment for a new key).

While learning Linux is not difficult, it is not a drop in
replacement for Windows. The initial learning curve can be steep and
frustrating for long time Windows users. Been a slacker for 10+
years and I'd never use Windows as my daily O/S. YMMV

You're probably trying to use newer Windows versions on older
computers. Normally, Windows is easy to use, that's why it became so
popular.

Windows became popular, because people had to use it at work. It was the
cheap alternative to easier/better systems. Only a small percentage of the
population wants to learn more than one system.
The bandwagon started rolling when "Gates Garbage" was chosen for IBM
business systems. The rest is history. The CP/M guy, Kildall, really
blew it in a meeting with the IBM guys. Otherwise, Kildall would be
Gates, and our Windows crowd would be loving CP/M. Ain't big glitches in
history grand?
At least, that's the way I remember it.

My understanding is that Microsoft developed PC-DOS for IBM for use in
their new IBM Personal Computers. IBM in the microcomputer game, brought
the personal computer into the big time.

And the rest is history. There was that little glitch of IBM allowing
Bill Gate the right to sell a version of the OS called MS-DOS. I guess
they figured that people didn't want to buy software without the
hardware. IBM's shortsightedness brought about the age of PC clones. My
first PC was a clone. And the rest is history.

You will find Linux to be _easier_ than Windows. My father is 73 and has
happily been running Linux (with my help) for the past 15 years.

In that time, he has become a GIMP-ninja, since he loves photography. He
has also learned how to use torrents to download obscure and rare country
music recordings from god knows where.

Add to that, that there is zero risk for him to be attached by phishing
and viruses, since they all go for windows. I have also forbidden him from
getting digital ID in his phone, and that has also stopped multiple
scammers as well, since they don't have the patience to try and trick
someone who has to do the physical ID dance.

That's a popular old wives tale, but not true. One needs to be as

This is incorrect. I have worked with both, and in many decades I can
count the nr of attacks on me and my father on one hand. It's 0.

On windows, endless attacks, scams, mails, worms etc. every single day.

If you have an older computer, you might try out ChromeOS Flex. It's
supposed to run well on computers no longer capable enough to handle
Windows. You can create a bootable USB and try it out first. I haven't
tried it myself because I don't have a suitable Windows candidate
computer.
Google has a history of dropping it's products in mid-stream. Rumor has
it that they might be dropping ChromeOS soon. I suspect that Google is
planning a new non-Linux based OS. We'll see.

I really loved MS-DOS 6. I didn't switch over to Windows until 2000.
That was the year I finally saw the writing on the wall. I put up with
Windows for around a decade then saw yet more writing on the wall. It
was time to get off the never ending Microsoft merry-go-round.
Typically, I don't care for merry-go-rounds and chasing my tail in

only dream of. What makes your rickety old bloated thing so special?

I'm not against Mickey Mouse computers if that's all you need. But I
think I do things with my computer that I couldn't do with a Mickey
Mouse computer. Unfortunately.

I know that my Mickey Mouse computers can do the things I need that your
primitive box is incapable of. You deserve to forever be chained to your
antique.

I use Chromebooks and Android. The Chromebooks are hardened against
malware in its hardware/architecture so no worries there. The Android
phones/tablets are a little worrisome. But it's easy enough to wipe the
phone/tablet clean and get it back running. I used to be able to get 3
Chromebooks for the price of 1 Windows laptop but now it's only two for
the price of one.

Sorry customer, I can't take on any more work. Someone in Hawaii told

I was always told that Macs were for secretaries, who were afraid to
look under the hood. I'm not saying that, just quoting it.

They're probably fine and, these days, I don't open the hood much
anymore anyway, but I don't like that they're proprietary.

I really loved MS-DOS 6. I didn't switch over to Windows until 2000.
That was the year I finally saw the writing on the wall. I put up with
Windows for around a decade then saw yet more writing on the wall. It
was time to get off the never ending Microsoft merry-go-round.
Typically, I don't care for merry-go-rounds and chasing my tail in
circles.

Jim Morrison said it best:

"This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I’ll never look into your eyes again

Can you picture what will be?
So limitless and free
Desperately in need of some stranger’s hand
In a desperate land..."

Windows gets worse with each version, and I lost patience after W7. I'm
still hanging on, but I'm going to install Linux Mint or something onto
an older laptop to tinker with it, I think.

Contrary to popular belief, Linux will not run on a toaster, nor
woefully out of date hardware.

If you're going to use and older laptop and want a desktop
experience, use XFCE on your choice (Mint). BUT . . . if you want
to go lighter, faster, use a window manager for your GUI environment.
Take a look at antiX Linux, https://antixlinux.com/ , with iceWM for
the window manager. Try it, you'll like it. It's not Windows, but
should be easy to adapt to.

I haven't really been near my desktop
computer in months, but I have a new laptop, so I figured I'd
check in here; Hopefully more often. I'm not enjoying this new
version of Thunderbird, though.

Nice to see you back in RFC. Things have gotten crazy since your
earlier postings, with no end in sight.
Your old version of Thunderbird is still available, but have no idea
how well it will work with a newer version of Windows.

To download a different old version, drill down to your choice
starting from here -
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/
The latest extended support release (esr) is 128.4.0esr

Thank you! I think I've been gone since early this year. After my
visit to Joan around early May, I hoped in to read the group, but
some of the replies I read were just flat disgusting, so I turned
around and left without posting.
I think the last version for Win7 is 115. I thought about finding my
old version, but it was glitching and sending error messages on most
e-mails, to the point it was becoming not usable. I'll try with this
newer version for a while, but I really should just learn how to use
Linux and ditch Windows all together.

quarter ham (precooked cryovac packed from the freezer) in a
casserole dish with cubed red potatoes from the garden, plus
onion diced. No cornbread, unfortunately, I wish I thought of
that earlier.

Stick around more, Dammit! And Happy Holidays, to you and yours,

Here it is going to be green beans, diced ham, and
cubed very small red potatoes all into the pot.  In
the pot is also chicken broth, two tablespoons of
onion flakes, salt, and a couple of light shakes
of red pepper flakes and a dash or two of garlic
powder.  This will be simmered for about an hour,
uncovered and a skillet of cornbread with round

Video circulating on social media reportedly shows Kelce slamming the
person's phone on the ground after the person allegedly called Travis
Kelce a homophobic slur.

It is unclear if the phone's owner is a student, but in the video, the
man was seen wearing a Penn State sweatshirt.

Kelce was on campus for an appearance on ESPN's College Gameday ahead of

Oh, those poor green beans!

My husband had green beans with his pizza, microwaved to
tender-crisp then buttered and salted. I cooked more than
he wanted to eat, so I noshed the last few in the bowl.
