  2. I probably should have created a Trek thread way, way back when. That way 70% of my posts could all be together in one spot and everyone could look at it with awe, shame, and pity.
  3. Definitely give it a try I don't even put French before my onion soup anymore because it's so far out there. Last batch I made had 4 different kinds of onions and it was tough to get them all perfectly caramelized
  4. I went red wine vinegar and sherry. I've been adding oxtail when I make my broth and can highly recommend that. I want to mess around with some mushrooms again, does anyone know when morels are in season? I really liked them last time but all I could find were dried and I'd like to try it again with fresh ones. /blasphemy
  5. Everywhere I've ever been it has been served with Gruyere or occasionally a generic Swiss cheese. Of course, I've never been to France but seeing as Switzerland is next door it doesn't seem such a stretch.
  6. I wonder if it gets frustrating for you to try to explain the law all the time... and even more frustrating when we still don't get it. I had an old lawyer acquaintance back when I lived in NYC who I asked a similar question to and his answer was something along the lines of yes but generally better than hanging out with other lawyers
  7. Sorry, I totally missed this. Not sure about the incident in the article but I looked it up because a friend who lives in Florida, because of course it's going to be Florida, had this happen to him. The spots were in the back of a parking lot and a couple of the trucks were "rolling coal" so it's likely just a reactionary thing.
  8. Stay away from Florida. The only thing worse than southern Florida is northern Florida
  9. Still getting highlighted text on mobile but I can recreate the issue now that I've paid attention to it. If I delete a paragraph or combine paragraphs then the lower text gets highlighted when delete the empty space enough so that the paragraphs above and below the deleted text are touching.Example, this was another paragraph that wasn't highlighted until I deleted the break in between Hopefully that makes sense
  10. Yep and it turned out amazing. My wife and MiL practically licked the pot. Not that I make it super authentic or anything as I like to experiment in the kitchen. I've been making my soups with a mix of onions and have been tinkering with mushrooms and meat in the soup. I didn't this time though I did have the meat on the side and everyone tried it with the meat and liked it better. Crap, text got highlighted again. All I did was delete some text. On mobile.
  11. And that game ended in about 75 years. Maybe next time I'll pick an out of the way county that won't constantly be having wars pass through
  12. Yesterday I made the broth that will be the base of tonight's onion soup.
  13. Pretty sure it's the latter as I grabbed the one with the season pass as soon as it went up for preorder
  14. I think Harris is pretty much done for as well and I'm not sure if anyone else still in the running were to drop out that she's be the main beneficiary. Maybe if both Biden and Sanders dropped out then she'd pick up the majority of the black vote but that's a better advantage in the primary than it is in the general so we need to occur before the south starts voting This doesn't really have anything to do with anything and isn't indicative of anything either but I think I've mentioned several times now that I recently had family come up from AZ to visit. Anyway, I was for sure they'd be for Biden or maybe Harris due to their demographics and me knowing them forever but it turns out that they and most in their circle thought Biden wasn't up to the task and didn't trust or care much for Harris. Wasn't what I expected from religious older black women.
  15. I'm pretty sure they've all said that they'll back the eventual nominee but my point was that if Bernie were to drop out now I'd bet money against him backing Biden over Warren or even Gabbard for that matter
  16. Bruce, if I remember correctly, likes more Clinton and Corporate-crats and those who will let the banks more or less do whatever they want And Biden is probably the least likely current candidate that Sanders would back
  17. It's probably as good as it's going to get
  18. 2 story packs and an expansion
  19. I just started a new game of CK2 and I picked a random count and decided to try to stay a count until the end of the game. I've never attempted such a low stakes game before
  20. My 2 years on NC streets and highways was more dangerous than 2 years in Iraq We had a safety brief before a holiday and the speaker asked the auditorium why we lose so many people on the road each year and somewhat shouted out that it was because people in North Carolina can't drive. Even the colonels were laughing.
  21. Yeah, my wife thinks it was sabotaged on purpose just in case she got convicted. I try not to put much stock in conspiracy theories but I can't but help feeling the same, especially after Gromnir's post on the issue.
  22. I don't think they've been more specific than 21st century but I haven't kept on top of it.
  23. She's with Khalid now
