I'm very surprised that in all the media attention to George H. W. Bush's death there has been no mention of Saddam Hussein's attempt to assassinate him.


In fact, I rarely see or hear it mentioned.








On June 26, 1993, President Bill Clinton ordered a missile attack against Baghdad after the Hussein regime plotted to assassinate President George H.W. Bush.

do tell.


I think this might be the most popular I've ever been! :D




I just wanted the recipe,

It's based off of this one:
https://altonbrown.com/southern-biscuits-recipe/

Except, I rarely have shortening, so I use all butter, and about 50% more than the total fat the recipe calls for. I've done some experimenting with it, and I haven't fully settled on the exact recipe, which is why my biscuits are decent. I mean, they're good, but not great, not yet. Maybe I should just get the damn shortening! The main thing really is to not over handle the dough. :)

More butter and more handling! (not necessarily the biscuits..)
 
Such a fun song. I heard it for the first time last week, so extra fun to see you sharing it here.

So weird that song came up in here yesterday. It was mentioned to me in r/l in a very specific way during an important heart to heart conversation with a friend. So bizarre how life can shine a light on certain things from various places sometimes.

Perhaps I should give it a closer listen...

Good biscuits can be hard to find. Jefferson Drug in Oak Ridge has great biscuits in their little diner. If you're in the area and craving them early, before the 9 in the morning when the drug store opens, the back door to the diner is open for business at 6:30 or 7a. Local knowledge gets the biscuit and country ham, of course.
 
The Real Ramona may just be the most underrated album of all time.
 

For those in the Northern Hemisphere (ignoring the far north), tomorrow will have the earliest sunset. From the 8th onward 'til June, sunsets will get later and later.


The latest sunrise doesn't occur 'til January 9th— and we all know when the shortest day arrives.
