Dunno... Italians keep it until they eat it all. THAT usually doesn’t take more than a few weeks!

Seriously, about a year. Just be sure no parts are sticking out of the oil, not even a sliver of garlic or a basil leaf. The oil should go rancid before the submerged eggplant goes bad. AND you’ll KNOW that!

[ROCKLOBSTER]

You can probably watch them for free online. I have a Netflix account, best $8 a month I ever spent.

[Jeff Chandler]

Jonah Goldberg, where were you when we were being sold out?

Writing one of the most important books of the last 20 years:

.

I disagree with Jonah on the Trump issue, but I can't deny his conservative bona fides.

[Alas Babylon!]

Man, I can’t easily think of a more revolting thing than sourpuss Judy Woodruff running her fingers thru my hair!

The things The Donald has to do to get elected!!! Shudder!

[Alas Babylon!]

I see it, Hoss!

[Morgan in Denver]

It would be laughable except these are serious party differences.

Democrats create a problem, Republicans solve or resolve it and Democrats are still upset over the problem and blame Republicans for it all.

[Bernard]

Nothing worth reporting on in the shows I saw today (parts of FOX, CBS, NBC, and ABC). It's harder here in the Chicago area because they mostly overlap, and even time their commercial breaks to run together somehow.

More important, what I did not see or hear: Hillary and her "Rope A Mope" media strategy. Two observations about that:

1. By having the emphasis on the rope, the media could avoid having to talk about how thin the crowds were.

[Alas Babylon!]

True dat! But I still want to see Boehner and McConnell pay for their backstabbing. As nathanbedford said:

The Republican Party in Washington was given Congress to stop Obama care and, as one FReeper has already observed, gave us Obama trade instead.

Jonah needs to man up and get on to them, too.

[Alas Babylon!]

Ah, and the second observation is? :-)...

[Bernard]

v2. By having the emphasis on the rope, the media could avoid having to talk about Hillary was actually able to walk all that distance without falling down, having a stroke, or erasing her email server.

Okay, I have no idea how #2 did not get posted. No, I did not have a Rick Perry moment; just a technical glitch.

Let's face it Beck was a drunk for many years.The residual problems from years of drinking are sometimes substituted by former alcoholics. They smoke a lot, drink a lot of coffee perhaps express themselves in irrational terms. All symptomatic of former alcholics.He still has his moments on the air and can be a stellar broadcaster.

[rodguy911]

Building on your theme if you want to hear DBM bias at its finest hour just listen to ABC’s Martha Radish open on the Iranian nuke talks on the stuffy stephy show. She reinvents everything that is going on as if she's telling the truth.Unreal.Wish I had a transcript.

[rodguy911]

I used to have it,netflix, really want to watch our show “Bloodline” filmed down here(some of it right next to me) but my bill with comcast is already over $200 a month.I can't afford any more.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Democrats create a problem, Republicans solve or resolve it and Democrats are still upset over the problem and blame Republicans for it all.

That's the old saw.

Republicans need to fight back, and not just with centralized talking points, but with true righteous indignation. Unlike the example set by GWB.

Force the voters to look it up...and think.

[Alas Babylon!]

That’s EXACTLY what Trump is doing, IMHO.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

...express themselves in irrational terms. All symptomatic of former alcholics.He still has his moments on the air and can be a stellar broadcaster.

Then his staff should have new pre-recorded and quality segments ready to play, in case he goes psychotic and freaks out live (like he often does)

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Democrats = Lie tellers, Communists, Racists, America haters.....Republicans = weak sisters, RINOS, Lie tellers, Democrats lite.....Obama = America Hater, Black Racist, Communist/Socialist, Traitor, Weakling, Benghazi murderer, Black thug, Incompetent, Buffoon!!!

Sunday Talk Shows....all of them, lie tellers, useless, weak sisters, America haters, Obamabot, Democrat, Liberal low life!!!!

Clinton = Useless, Weak, Incompetent, Benghazi murderer, criminal!!!

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Get the $10 basic package, keep the broadband. I haven’t had cable/satellite for years. They suck. I never looked back.

Netflix also has no commercials.

[rodguy911]

Beck plays a dangerous game as do others in his field. He tries to run a huge media company along with doing three hours a day on the air. Both are more than full time jobs. “When” not “if” he burns out is the question.
He's not alone. Look at Hannnity, Mark Levin, others who burn the candle at both ends. Its just a matter of time.

[rodguy911]

I tried to renegotiate they told me I was locked in for two years.....don’t recall signing up for it.
