Some go off the deep end in contests. A guy I worked with brought in his winning Irish Fruit Soda Bread, which was delicious!

I asked for the recipe, you would have thought I was asking for his wallet. I brought a piece home for dissection.

The internet knew all about it.

“...on a plot in Portland, Ore.”

How long before the local commies either destroy it all or just steal it?

I like obsessiveness when it doesn’t look like obsessiveness.

“I just like to do it. I love sewing, making things. I love cooking and baking,” said Ms. Skeens, 74. ...life has resumed in rural Virginia, she said: “I’m back to being me. I’m cleaning my house today.”

At my age, I'm ready to settle down with a good woman and willing to relocate. If you have the time, and are interested, call me Ms. Skeens, would love to meet you.

Sincerely, HT

Or Aunt Bee’s kerosene pickles...

That said, the internet knows almost all the recipes.

And do not forget...

Can You Copyright a Recipe?
Recipes are usually not protected by copyright due to the idea-expression dichotomy. The idea-expression dichotomy creates a dividing line between ideas, which are not protected by copyright law, and the expression of those ideas, which can be protected by copyright law.

There are rare times where the idea and the expression of the idea are so intertwined that there is only one way, or very few ways, to express the idea. When this is the case, that expression of the idea is not protected by copyright law. A recipe’s list of ingredients, or simple directions, is so intertwined with the idea of that recipe that there are very few ways to express this idea; so, a simple list of ingredients or simple directions will not usually be protected by copyright.

Once saw a nightclub act with a young lady that could climb a straight ladder and jump around far better than Bluto ever could.

Maybe not for everyone?

On many of my pheasant hunting trips to NW Kansas, the local radio station was always broadcasting local news and sell and swap information.. So and so has new puppies looking for a home. So and so looking to sell whatever. That was just so darn basic Americana that there is no way to describe it.

We always arrived on Friday, then the night of opening day, the local "Catholic Ladies" (commonly referred to by the land owner we hunted on) would hold a town banquet with prizes raffled off. All the food prepared by the "Catholic Ladies".

I just wish I hadn't become so addicted to city life with no experience on how to live out there.......

Then start posting #2 rather than the unaccessible #1.....How simple is that?

Talent is worth admiring. In all forms it never ceases to impress.

One of the non-winners (but still a fan favorite):

Well he is obviously polluting the (fill in the blank) _____________ (ie, earth , water, air, noise), something, to be this successful. therefore he must be shut down for the sake of the (fill in the blank)_____________________ (children, racial harmony/diversity, minorities, women).

why is it that people know what a woman is when discussing victimization, but a female (woman) judge cannot in normal discourse
