I adore chipped beef on toast.

My grandfather was a cook on a Navy base in WWII...in South Carolina, I believe.

He made the best breakfasts. Chipped beef and gravy on biscuits, pan-fried ham..which, of course, leads directly to red-eye gravy, scrambled eggs.

Oddly enough...he never had heart trouble. He lived into his 90s, actually.

Charlie, you're surrounded by love. Whether you want to admit it or not. Love, man. That's the only thing that matters in this world.

Please, you have kids for f$+#'s sake.
Go to rehab, keep going until it sticks. Remember Belushi, man.


No way. Charlie's gotta explode, and we'll all watch it, like a supernova, and never forget.

I have a bunch of books coming this month...all kinds of stuff I've been waiting a year to be published come out in the next couple of weeks. Except for Ghost Story. Damn you, Jim Butcher! Write faster!

Very good. Just checking!

Well, how about this, then, retinally-scarred badger? I bet that makes up for it.


DAMN.

Kevin Andrew Murphy is bucking for the next Mairkurion Poster Award. Trouble is, I'm having trouble just isolating one post. Could I get away with giving him the award for Recent Posting Quality instead of any one mind-blowing post, like I used to do?

Rochester has one of the most irritating accents ever. Somehow I don't have it too badly, but some people I've heard... It's like nails on a chalkboard. All nasally and shrill. Case in point: in the native accent, the O in Rochester as pronounced almost identically to the A in apple, especially if you took pains to project that A through your nose.

I wonder if Erkel was based on a Rochester accent...

Oh, f*&$--western New York is bad for accents. The worst bit is that the "a" sound (as in "back" or "cat") is pronounced exactly like the word "yeah." Also, "Syracuse" is pronounced exactly as if it were a city belonging to someone named "Sarah Q." And I'm sick of hearing about the Sarah Q's Arrange Men. AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHH.

I tease my buddy from Niagara Falls for saying Ken instead of can sometimes. I usually say, "Ken? Really? What about Barbie?"

On the subject of accents, my hometown area has possibly the weirdest accent in the U.S. I present the western Vermont/northeastern New York/Adirondack accent:

This guy sounds quite a bit like me.

And, a very good example of the NY Rust Belt accent.


Eminem. He's one of my favorite poets alive. Hey, Em, let's hook up and bring fiery death.

*Facepalm* I just talked to an old buddy of mine on the phone. He`s a minister at a local church. I just talked with him on how to live a mentally healthy life, and somehow he thought I was preaching and wrote down a whole sermon on repentance O.o

Figure that one out an atheist just gave a pastor a sermon on repentance.

What's to figure out? ;-)

For you religious types

:
I called it, "Cleaning out your mental closet". Basically it is on a fundamental level cleaning out all those little things you did that stress you.You have to do brutal self analysis and go those places in your memory and mind you don't want to go. Dealing with your past. Making amends with all the things that hurt you in the past, apologizing for those things you did wrong too people, dealing with the grief you caused and putting it behind you. Solving those problems you tried to ignore for so long and facing up to your mistakes.

Then you from that point forward live your life in a mature manner to try and not do those things, to the best of your ability. Basically guarding your behavior to not be a dick to people. To not try to negatively affect those around you. That is called a mentally healthy mature life and that is psychotherapy. My buddy told me that is called repentance *shrug* go figure.
Edit: Also and since we are human if you do mess up make amends and continue

So is that what you religious types call repentance? I didn't think it was.


Religion talk:
Sure, that's repentance. It's a pretty big concept that can be divided up different ways, but a lot of what you are describing fits under "examination of conscience."

You know what? After seeing that interview, I think neither one of the dudes was acting on 2.5 Men. Maybe the other actors were, but not Charlie and Duckie.

I could also see how seeking guidance about this process would be helpful. (Like with a psychotherapist or a priest :P) So you Catholics almost got it down. Guess we're not so different after all. But I still ain't convertin' :P

Ok biscuits and gravy has me intrigued... In Australia a biscuit is a Tim Tam or a Kingston or an iced vovo - and gravy is the brown sauce like stuff made from cornflour and the bloody juices of the animal you cooked (or stuff from a tin).

The mixture of both does not seem appealing.... Although I was wrong about bacon, pancakes and maple syrup and that was not revolting at all...

I could probably google it but its more entertaining to find out from you guys.. What actually is biscuits and gravy... and what is chipped beef?

The biscuits here aren't like tim tams or a kingston, these are small white flour and milk biscuits covered in a gravy typically made from flour and milk made with pan-drippings from fried sausage with bits of sausage in it.

Chipped Beef is an evil abomination made from the scrapings of an iguana's shed skin in the puss of an angry goat's sickly liver. We don't speak of it here... of course I just might be biased.

Also, it's bed time. G'night other side of the world. :)


Ahem.

Chipped beef is dried, pressed, seasoned beef sliced paper-thin. Think very seasoned corn beef in thin lunchmeat form, or maybe dried pastrami. It's delicious, particularly when chopped into a white sauce.

Your opinion may vary.

Cool the closest we thing would be dumplings in gravy. Its not made very often though its kind of old fashioned like bread and dripping.

Treppa chipped beef = soft beef jerky?

Mmm... Chipped Beef in white sauce on toast with a side of scrapple.

Don't judge me!
