How about that? 59 vote difference out of 155,000 cast. Nearly 6,000 absentees (and probably as many lawsuits) to follow.

Tie goes to the runner?

By the way, I cheat and use a rolling pin on pizza crusts, but I don't know how good that would do on the tougher whole-wheat doughs.

I appreciate your answer more than you know. the silence in your thread was deafening. I thought I must've asked the most stupid question ever.

So you just throw down some flour and roll the dough flat? That simple? We must just be complete klutzs.

Although this seems to dispute that. But...it's even closer.

Re: Test

I bought these things that look like a giant salt shaker, called a "dredge", for shaking flour and bread crumbs.



I just shake some flour onto the counter, drop the dough ball, and then flour the top: dough is sticky. I then mash the ball flat with my hand and start rolling in all different directions. Using a rolling pin makes it much thinner in the middle than at the edges.

I feel really strange today.

This morning I mowed the lawn for the first time this year. Then just after lunch it got really windy and started snowing. Nothing stuck on the ground since it was in the mid-40's, but even so how weird is that?

After 3-4 hours of snow, it's now sunny and warm. Time to fire up the BBQ for some pork ribs.

There'll be a court decision Monday to determine how/when the absentees get counted. The military ballots may not have had enough time to be returned.

Re: Test

It's got to be odd being a public figure - seeing yourself characterized when ever you open the paper or turn on the news. I'd rather be Warren Buffett, with all you could ever spend and yet you could walk down the street in any US city and not be recognized.

Did you ever read The Bretheren? There's an episode where appeals judge John Paul Stevens is working on a case and told his secretary to hold all calls. She put one through to him anyway, and when he complained she said "I think you want to take this call. It's the President". One call and your professional anonymity disappears forever.

I think that's one of your favorite jokes.

It's kinda like how some people mark spring with the beginning of baseball season, or Easter. For Dennis, it's "Tank heaven for little grills."

One shivers when thinking of what Photoshop can do to an icecream in a picture like that.

Ice cream?

No ice cream, but lots of water over Shoshone Falls this week.

Shoshone Falls April 11, 2009

I think I'll take a drive out there later this week - maybe Friday - after the irrigation system is up and running.

Re: Test

Not certain myself of what Cees speaks, but it puts me in mind of The Buffalo Bills in The Music Man as their characters as members of the River City School Board became "one" by harmonizing to ice cream.

Re: Test

Beats me what's in that Beethoven box. Blomstedt conducting which orchestra? S. Richter playing what - the concertos or the sonatas?

Quote:
The 87 CDs come in prestigious cardboard sleeves packed in a decorative cardboard box with front flap


I was thinking more of the famous "butter scene" from Last Tango in Paris when I read Cees' comment.

Re: Test

Difficult to say, from that info, and the artwork itself is totally different, but that Beethoven set could be the previous Brilliant Classics version. It has two discs more.

If it isn't, that would be the third version in three years.

The four girls picture. I was afraid I might stumble on a version on the internet where the mike or icecream object in the hands of one of the girls would have been replaced by a more, uhm, oddli shaped object (if you fancy anagrams). Would give a new depth to the looks of the other girls.

Never mind.
(Or more acurate perhaps: dirty mind.)

Ah.

Cees: The object which caught your eye is none other than a cup of American Joe. Highly recognizable to those who frequent establishments such as Starbucks here in the states.

And, there's nothing wrong with a dirty mind that a little cleaning can't fix.

Free water is good

I got our subdivision's irrigation water system up and running this week.



We have a pond for temporary water storage. It holds about .6 acre-feet. The entry pipe is where water comes in from the irrigation canal.



Our pumping station has one "jockey pump", two main pumps, and expansion space for a third main pump. The white box at upper right contains all the electronics to run the pumps.

Do any critters live in the pond?

Why did you get the irrigation system up & running? Don't they have people to do that?
