Seeing as we're talking about both Hank and Penske, I concur.

You can't nuke anything. Its a losing proposition from every conceivable angle.

That said, I have no problem with dropping a tactical nuke or testing chemicals in the Afghan mountains and Pakistani provinces. The press doesn't go there and there's no reason not to poison the ground there forever. It'll work like Raid - keep the bugs out for good.

Thank you, thank you very much. I'm here until judgment day. Be sure to tip your waitress.

Should we take this to teh mmmm, food, board?

If a restaurant gives me a choice, I assume they stand by their meat.

At home, I grind my own (ground) beef, so I have no worries.

Most of the e coli problems are in pre-formed patties anyway, since most reputable supermarkets grind meat on the premises, far away from the rest of the cow.

Really?

Unusual, but OTOH for your screenname and avatar this seems particularly appropriate.

You are no fun.

ETA and you grind your own meat? regularly? Do you own a paint mixer, too? So that you can adjust the tinting for how the light falls differently on different walls in a room? God.

You have to almost literally pummel these people with western influences and culture while killing their religious leaders to get anywhere. You can't just give them the wheel. They're like Mississippi in the 60s. You gotta drag these fuckers kicking and screaming. I see a one two punch. 1. Flood them with western goods and culture. Pump western television free via satellite to them. Get them fucking, screwing and getting drunk and high. Get them ambitious for expensive cars. Its creating a middle class in India. Why not Pakistan? 2. Kill the religious zealots. Make the Imams disappear. have all sorts of accidental fires take out the militant madrases and mosques. You can't cure the indcotrinated, so just get rid of them.

Those two steps should do it.
Or they could elect a female Prime Minister, like they did in 1988 when they elected Benazir Bhutto, making her the first democratically elected female head of government in a Muslim country.

regularly. i buy a bunch of round and chuck, grind it, season it, form patties, and freeze it. means I know the quality of meat going in.

OTOH, I happily devour jimmy dean sausage. I just don't want to know.


my paint mixer is named Alberto. He does a bang-up job, and can get you his number.

How taut are his abs? Because my painters are always taut-abbed. In NFH's mind, at least.

Maybe she was referring to the Mad Cow. Its the next plague, according to that cheerleader reading the news on FNC.

Who the fuck owns a meat grinder? This is America, not Mexico.
