If you are going to talk out of your arse, make sure your diction is crisp.

Three blind mice... why three? isn't that a bit like the blind leading the blind leading the blind?

snow has forgotten how to be polite - arriving one day, staying for a day, then disappearing the next. now it brings its unwelcome guest ICE with it and never knows when to leave.

ha! bumhugs.

Same reason no kid every performs on queue; the universe hates us all.

No chance for a drug addicted Frog or a blind man. George would "Bustle" them out of the way.

Jack Flarf

“God Damn!” Jack Flarf, the poet said
As he finished with his scribble
And logged on to his Facebook,
“If I say so myself, that’s good!”

But spam popped up inside his head
Which made him go to Google.
“You don’t know Jack; go flarf yourself
Until it reads like Metamucil.”

It's not quite bad-good enough to be Flarf, but it is most certainly talking out of my arse.

Milton goes out first because Beaudelaire would move the chairs.

Stale French bread, torn into pieces, slightly moistened and then toasted in a hot iron skillet. Add chopped onion, bell pepper, mushrooms and garlic. Season to taste. Add turkey stock if it is baked in an oven, or just cram as much as possible in the turkey.

Just stuffing.

Bake homemade bread (yeast, water, honey, salt and bread flour). Tear up ten cups of the bread and let sit overnight to get stale.

Saute chopped onion, celery and mushrooms in safflower oil. Saute one pound of bulk breakfast sausage and drain (I like Snow Mountain; think it's local to western NC--it's really good and not fatty). Mix with bread, turkey stock, poultry seasoning, dried cranberries and fresh ground pepper. Put in baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 350 for one hour.

That's my stuffing.

Onions, celery, garlic, sage and thyme.. mixed with bread cubes and stock, put it inside the small cavity at the neck .. between the flesh and the skin.. yummy bird fat and juices.

Spread/stack slices of bread on cookie sheet so that most of surface is free to dry out.
Put in a warm oven overnight (or a bit higher if didn't plan ahead). Turn occasionally so all faces get a chance to dry out. Take car that ends of loaf don't get too crispy.
Saute onions, celery, a bit of carrot. Toss trimming from vegetables into stock starting up from turkey neck and giblets.
Break bread into bite size pieces in large bowl or pan, reserving the ends. Stir in sauteed vegetables - now doing everything with hands. Add poultry seasoning, especially lots of sage, some twists from a pepper mill.
Stuff both cavity and crop with dressing and seal openings with ends.
Use poultry skewers and lace or whatever else is handy, such as just washed nails from garage - will just be in skin and perhaps backbone.
roast turkey and remove dressing before carving.

wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wainscot, eavesdropping on a tete-a-tete-a-tete conversation between Walt Whitman, cummings, and Blake and a pitcher of brandy?

Maybe if you can get his tail wagging just right he'll have yelps of pleasure

so late starting my home and office computer course - it's not that i'm disorganised, just having to be ultra-organised dealing with everyone else's problems that the time/peaceandquiet allotted for the course is swallowed whole. this needs addressing, as the three months to complete is down to one now

meh, i'll manage it.
