No less a personage than the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, stated Canada is a Post National country and it had no core values.
In my view, it is one of the things that helped trigger your President to suggest union.
I can not fault him for making the assumption.
Succeeding leaders in our government are Globalist in outlook, espousing the "One World" mantra.(Perhaps they watched too many Star Trek episodes?)
The waves of patriotism we are now seeing here, in response to the 51st state idea, is a confusing reaction, given the initial approval of Trudeau's statement.
Trudeau makes a great argument for retroactive birth control....much as do so many of our political misfits.

Why do you suppose the hundreds of these things being offered on the web so damn few (like almost none) show the face of the faves of their remote controllers?
What are they hiding? I'm looking for a Sony style from about six years ago and even Sony only shows one or two patterns, neither of which is like the older one.
I can't find a real store that has much of a selection and they almost never have anyone who knows anything.

If they set out to create a truly ugly plane I will congratulate then on succeeding so well.

A couple to get you started. I've seen 'em with only a handful of ingredients, on up to a dozen. Don't trust a receipt that tells you to cook the bacon in the oven, or that tells you to pour off all but 2 TBS of the bacon fat (OK, if there is like a cup of fat in the skillet you'll want to drain off about half of it, otherwise leave it).
Always use shallots and onions. Try red onions rather than sweet onions, or both. Heck, for less sweetness use regular yellow or white onions.

I like the flavors in this one, and especially the note at the end about playing with flavors, BUT it falls into the "Don't Trust" category because it says to pour off all but 1/2 TBS of the bacon grease.
A couple more to try. Thanks.

Okee dokee. I just ordered a jar from Amazon. (Did you know they have a dozens of different brands and types of something I never heard of until last week?)

Notice that I said Dress Uniform. I suppose you went into action wearing
Chevrons are wrong. I was a Gunnery Sergeant.
I never did wear that into combat but with the dropping of several items...tie, cummerbund, cover, and all of the shiny stuff...it could have been done.

i like that attitude - we all like what we like ands we all have our reasons and memories to thank for that - i think id try the ground peppers in the grave tho , that sounds good to me , i do enjoy what oythers post to try tho
Why are you still here? Go get to cooking. I have about 150 things I want to try.
I have to be careful, though. It's very easy to fit 3,4, 0r 5 things into a day and then a week later all my clothes begin the shrink.
It can be an expensive thing what with buying new ingredients, new spices, new cookware and a new wardrobe.

Hey, I ran into something I hadn't ever heard of. Sally B's is a small cafe where I get breakfast once a week or so. I have almost never eaten lunch or supper there, but I did yesterday. Had something breakfasty...don't remember what... that came with something new to me: bacon jam.
That stuff was so good I forgot what else was on the plate. I'll have to get a recipe for that and try it t home.

If you want some really good blue berry pancakes make them like this.
I use Oregon brand canned whole blueberries in light syrup. Drain and save the syrup. Mix up your pancake batter and add the blueberries. Put the blueberry syrup in a small sauce pan, start warming, add a little cornstarch to thicken (add small amounts and stir in).
Cook the blueberry pancakes and pour the blueberry syrup over. Enjoy.
BS
Well, that's another one I'll have to try. Being a blueberryoholic makes it easy to make that decision. Thank you.

The only way that outfit would ever get aboard an aircraft would be in luggage.
But the boots are kinda cool. And on a sunny or rainy day you could un-pin the hat and camp under it.
And if the wind didn't catch it and move you to someplace like Albuquerque.

So, you’re saying you don’t know much about them but you don’t like the way they look?
No, I'm saying I have a pistol (several actually) that fits my needs, so I don't need any more and I won't pay for something that looks like a dime store toy.

Okay, enough of that! I'm going to a weekly breakfast with the local Marine Corps League. I'm thinking blueberry pancakes, bacon, and coffee. I'll eat that, you can eat your hearts out.
Have a great day.

im noy into beans enough to go with what others posted here , ill eat a little on occasion that warrants it , but im more inclined to green geans than any other - i suspect its a textural thing and an upbringing thing - too much goulashes with lots of beans , the one ill never ever touch again is lima beans was fed too many of those as a kid

That's why they make chocolate and vanilla ice cream: everybody has their own tastes.
Mine are the best but if you think yours are, we can both be right.....unless we're discussing toilet paper.

Y'all reminded me of when we went to Flagstaff for a quick get away, (I highly recommend the night tour of Lowell Observatory), and there was this eatery down the street from our AirBNB that boasted the best biscuits and gravy. My wife loves that, so we stopped in.
The "biscuits" were dinner rolls. Big, fluffy, dinner rolls. It was terrible. She was quite irked.
Ran into a place in San Diego that made outstanding biscuits and gravy. Went down once and the lady said they were out of biscuits but she had plenty of gravy.....and English Muffins. Mighty fine substitute.

I have put barbecue beans on a hot dog (so obviously on the hot dog bun) when I was out of chili.
Does that count?
Only if you eat hot dogs. That's another survival food.

Anybody ever had beans on toast?
Yes, but that's survival food. I don't like it well enough to eat it unless there is simply nothing else.
The only thing English that I truly like is HP Sauce and Worchestershire Sauce (83 years old and still can't spell it.).

I'd like to see how those would fit into ANY military aircraft except big cargo haulers. They're about as useful as a barb wire jock strap.

Doesn't look any worse than the current uniforms or the ones for the Space Patrol.

In PA the DFG would do the same things.
I was driving home from work and a I saw 3 game wardens setting up an elk on a hillside. I thought “This is hilarious! Do they think people will actually shoot that thing?”
So I hooked a left and went up the hill and parked so I could see the road below and the stuffed elk on the hillside on the other side of the road.
About 10 minutes later I see my idiot brother-in-law in his idiotic looking black truck on the road and it slows down. He sees the elk. He pulls off and gets out of his truck then reaches behind the seat and pulls out his rifle.
Moral Dilemma: Do I let him shoot and get busted or do I yell at him and tell him the DFG is watching?I would like to say I took the high road. I did not.
He fired once. He lowered his rifle and looked at the elk. He fired again then stood there in shock that the deer didn’t move. That’s when the DFG rolled up along with a State Trooper car.
Idiot brother-in-law arrested.
That show was well worth the price of admission.
I watched them bust two more idiots before going home.
There were no elk in PA in 1989. These guys just could not help themselves.
I did tell my wife about her brother. She laughed and told me I was a bad man.
I think he paid a $1000 fine for his transgression.Why would it be illegal to shoot stuffed animals. My wife worked for an office full of lawyers who would have a field day with that.

Someone kicks in my door and enters my home there will be gunplay.
Not at my house because I won't be "playing"!

I'll keep my 1911.
It's paid for and looks better to me.
Of course in my opinion a crooked stick looks better than most new guns do.
