An Early Lunch with the Old Man Today.
I walk him to his car. We are talking about my favorite subject.
"What are the chances," he asks, "that you're a selfish asshole?"
"They're quite good," I tell him. "But I make up for my selfishness by being really, really greedy."
He laughs. "Very nice." And he kisses me goodbye, gets into his Infiniti, and drives off.

Oh, I forgot there was a question,
Considering that I'm battling a simultaneous case of shingles and ulcerative colitis, I would say it would be nice to be pain-free once again. With a few hours of sleep as an added bonus, of course.

What inspires me is the ability to contribute to others. I have people around me who take on new challenges and overcome their fears. And I get to be a part of it. My life belongs to teaching. The harder I work, the more fulfilled I am. A quote from Bernard Shaw for some people on this list:
\"This is the true joy in life: the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one, the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap, the being a force of nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy\"
Now tell me was he a conservative?

George Bernard Shaw, a vegan, anti-war conservative I love it. I bet you he was pro-abortion and for gay-marriage. By the way his birthday was 26 July, thats why the quote.

Driving Force:
1) Duty: To be an example of redemption for my family as parts of my past were wretched with my causing a great deal grief to loved ones.
2) Fear: Damn Mortgage!
Animates:
1) My kids. Sometimes angels, sometimes orcs. Always a treasure (oh, oh, I'm getting sappy).
2) Accomplishing a challenging task. Whereas, I confess, FACING a new challenge evokes stress (OK, maybe dread) rather than animation. Duty better kick in or else.
3) A stirring connection whether it be from a sunset, a book, a movie or, more typically, another person, especially if you find them attractive in one way or another (yeah, looks mainly).
Goals:
1) To not mess up.
2) To become-and have a growing desire to become- the kind of person God would be pleased with.

For some reason, every person that worked in the "health food" store in San Francisco I used to buy my tomatoes from had terrible, pizza-like complexions. Must have had something to do with not eating cheeseburgers regularly. Now, what was the question?

Dear Abby,
My mother's on the warpath again. Would it be unethical for me to sneak her an extra Prozac? Or is there any point: she appears pretty determined to have a fight with me tomorrow.
Oh, well. It's like my middle-aged acne—it'll keep me young.

Another way to win without trying is to agree with everything she says, then do none of it. Just keep smiling and saying "you're right" and continue doing what you've been doing all along.
Eventually she'll figure out she's talking to herself, and might shut up.

I see you people have normal mothers. I don't want to aggravate mine, for she could get homicidal, and I don't want to have to shoot my own mom in self-defense.
So no passive-aggressive tactics for me.
Fortunately, she saw that she was headed for the swamps, and reined herself back in. So there's growth . . .

The tactic that works - though is in your face confrontational - is to just not see them. Don't answer the phone, don't visit, don't have them over. Let them know it is because "You are invited to STOP trying to run my life."
Note to mothers everywhere - when your kids are 28, you really do have to stop treating them like they are 12.

Oh, That Joni.

Iowahawk is trying his hand--
You were born in the Valley to a life in a suburban cage
Encino, where mean girls and cheerleaders
Drop bombs of hate on the unpopular girls
Shy poetry club chicks like you
With 1480 SATs and early admission to Berkeley
Fed by the violence and lookism of the dance squad
Raised in a four bedroom colonial
They wouldnÂ’t let you wear your Che T-shirt to prom
But your heart and your armpit hair still grew proud and strong

When Planning a Party . . .
one must make the assumptions that:
1) the date selected many weeks ahead of time will fall during a heat wave, and
2) one will get one's period on the day the party begins, incurring cramps and the necessity for steady doses of codeine.
Therefore, it behooves one to clean the house on the weekend previous to that of the potluck itself. Hey—at least I remembered the appetizers this time.

At 8:00 p.m.
I checked the thermometer in the breezeway area of the garage. It had finally dipped below 100 degrees.
And still, we're too stubborn to turn on the AC.
Tomorrow, though, it'll be different: we're having people over at night, and I'll be straightening up during the day. So when I get up I'm turning on the air.
This is a big deal for Methodists: we tend to convince ourselves that unnecessary expenditures will send us to hell. Where, I've been told, the AC is spotty at best.

Did you know that Janis Joplin was a girl?
And that Kris Kristofferson's original lyrics said that Bobby was a girl--
"From the coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul,
Standin right beside me through everythin I done,
And every night SHE kept me from the cold.
The somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let HER slip away,
SHE was lookin for the love I hope SHE'LL find,
Well Id trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday,
Holdin Bobby's body close to mine.
Freedoms just another word for nothin left to lose,
And nothin left was all SHE left to me,
Feelin good was easy, lord, when bobby sang the blues,
And buddy, that was good enough for me.
Good enough for me and Bobby Mcgee."

I see Darrell that you feel compelled to respond to an obvious falsehood.

"And Then She Got Really Angry."
Well now, I knew this girl. It's true she had read
Sophocles in a fairly good translation
And caught that bitter allusion to the sea,
But all the time he was talking she had in mind
The notion of what his whiskers would feel like
On the back of her neck . . . ."

Kinky Omelet Variations
Martin G. used to add two teaspoons of flour to the eggs, and then strain the egg mixture. That would remove some of the white, along with any unblended flour. His family insisted that this made the final product, technically, a crepe.
Zora used to whip up the eggs, so that they'd almost get fluffy--notwithstanding the presence of yolk--and then put in some Worchestershire sauce. Since she claimed to be vegetarian, I always allowed myself to believe the Worchestershire sauce was vegetarian, and was free of anchovies. Of course, I might have been wrong.

What I Do on Those Occasions When Women Seem to Really Fucking Hate Me.
Option 1: I try to have compassion for them.
Option 2: With every action I take, I assert the notion that I'm smarter than they are, and better-looking. That both men and women desire me beyond all belief. That I'm creative, and that my erstwhile blue-collar family has managed to put together a shitload of money.
As I get older, I seem to be able to take the high road more and more. But I don't do it every time.

The Importance of Making Omelets.
Now that I've developed an omelet filling that we all three (mother, husband and self) can live with, it might be time to stop making them in sequence. With a MoFo twelve-inch omelet pan, I could simply produce one really butch omelet.
Though it might be a challenge to turn it. And there is the margarine vs. butter debate. (That one is solvable: I'll use olive oil. Healthier that way, anyway.)
Good food is such a fundamental pleasure in life. I'm glad my first few boyfriends taught me to cook.

Do you incorporate your ingredients into the egg mixture? Or do you leave them to sit like sailors on the flotsam on the yellow sea? The answer divides humanity into two distinct groups. I know the correct version is to let them sit. But sometimes the correct way is not the best way.
Use olive oil to cook and moisten with butter as you serve it. Life is about co....mpromise. In some instances...

I'm afraid I prefer to have my filling be filling, and the omelet skin be omelet skin. I personally love to melt cheese on top of the yellow sea, but the husband doesn't like that, so I'm doing it less often these days.
Plenty of black pepper, and salt nearby on the table. Mushrooms should be present. Onions must be present.
Posted by: Attila Girl at July 16, 2006 08:58 PM (4IuF2)

Onion must ALWAYS be present.
I'm awful with eggs. Fuss fuss fuss. I want them with no moist egg bits but also no browned bits. At all. And some people have that touch and some don't. I don't.
I also have LOTS of trouble turning it over. For my own egg needs, the ideal way is to pour in the eggs, let them set enough to flip, and flip the whole thing over like a pancake. Then I lay the cheese on right away, since that part was just sitting against the pan and is very hot and will MEILT that cheese. Then go the on-yums (previously browned) and whatever else I wanted in there.
The folding part I'm usually ok with. But by then my nice neat omelet is all busted up and twisted anyway so it doesn't matter.
Walter, who dislikes cooking but knows a great deal about it, makes fabulous eggs. Fluffy, light, perfectly cooked. He doesn't mind if any other ingredients are mixed in or folded. To me, once you mix them in, it's scrambled rather than omelet. Not that I mind, it's just a distinctly different dish.
Imagine my surprise when I realized I love frittatas! Because they're BROWNED eggs! Then, of course, it hit me that so is egg foo yung, so why was I surprised?
Hmmm. Think you could talk them into a compromise frittata?

Incorporating the ingredients into the omelet doesn't result in scrambled eggs! Not unless you wind up with a panfull of clumps. If you do it right, you wind up with one homogeneous omelet--an object of absolute perfection. Risen slightly, over two-inches thick, with a moist center....Mmmmm! Incorporate 1/4-inch butter pieces in the mixture, or non-salty cheese bits and you have something quite remarkable! And no part of it should ever be browned! Save that for the edges of sunny-side-up eggs! In parts of Switzerland, they have a regular little performance art ceremony that goes with the making of the omelet. Teenage boys with shiny copper bowls whisk the eggs for five minutes, playing out various rhythms with their whisks against the bowls. Teenage girls with copper pan on long handles, cook your omelet over a roaring wood fire with a continuous back-and-forth motion. The result: A three-inch thick omelet of absolute perfection--with a floor show to boot! And never a burnt spot!
If the omelet can open up and the ingredients can spill out, I want no part of it! Seems to me to be perfect for the control freaks among us though since you can pick out what they choose...Relationships are based on trust, though. And as the chef, don't you already have complete control over what goes into it?

You could always share;-) With your travel party, of course.
You choose: They are made to order. But the 'usual' is Italian parsley, chives and chervil, I think. Europeans! I think I ordered a Denver omelet. I didn't want anyone to think I was sensitive to the fact that they didn't know what I was talking about.

To be fair, I've been told that what I witnessed was just an imitation of the show they put on at the Hotel la Mere Poulard in Mont Saint Michel, Normandy. They have a few tiny pictures here-- http://www.mere-poulard.com/restaurant.asp The Swiss omelet was a similar size so you can judge for yourself.
Feel free to look around, or maybe book a room. It doesn't hurt to start spending your book royalties now. If you include some slurs about the Patriot Act, et al, you could even buy the place(I read a book review Sunday where such a slur was included in a slice-of-life book about the 80's.) We will forgive you. But only if you have lots of pie 'scenes' and maybe some pie sex.

Say what you will about whores the French are when it comes to nuclear material; they can do things with eggs that mere culinary mortals only dream about.
I happen to like baked eggs. I've thought of learning to make 'em myself, but I don't know if that would make them less special . . .
I have no comment to make on "pie sex," since there are myriad directions I could go with it, and I'm paralyzed by the endless possibilities.

Beloved Palestinians: Shhh.
Youssef Ibrahim has some mighty
tough love for his Arab brothers:
. . . Your leaders have wasted three generations trying to fight for Palestine, but the truth is the Palestine you could have had in 1948 is much bigger than the one you could have had in 1967, which in turn is much bigger than what you may have to settle for now or in another 10 years. Struggle means less land and more misery . . .
