I agree, they are absolutely the best.

Prayers for your family, so sad.

Wow!! I missed the original post about this, TC so glad she is going to make it. Sounds like an amazing person. Prayers for quick healing.

Actually it's one you can plug into a power port in the car, you can buy a rechargeable power source that has a plug like the ones in the car. It's a 12 volt heated blanket, there are a lot of sources just do a google search for "12V heated blanket". ETA Amazon has one for $20.00.

I have a battery operated electric blanket you can borrow. If there's a generator on board, you can just bring a regular electric blanket.

I have been saying this from the beginning. If this is so good for everyone, everyone should have it, including government employees. I wonder how much $ we can save by them gaining access to our plan. I'm sure it will be much less expensive than what we are now paying. Thank for posting this Mr.Dis.

Sorry L&LI, didn't mean to hi-jack your thread. Enjoy it MrsB. I would think you could get the casings at West Metro Meats. hijack over/ Back to Living and luvingit's wonderful dish. Yummy

Here is a great recipe for Sweet Italian sausage. Sausage of different types are made throughout Italy. This type of sausage is great grilled and served with polenta, or used in other dishes. If you plan to add the sausage to another dish you may want to skip the casing step. This type of sausage is also called mild sausage. Sweet Italian Sausage Recipe Ingredients •3 pounds lean pork butt, ground •3 garlic cloves, crushed •4 basil leaves, minced (or 1/4 tsp dry basil) •1/2 tsp oregano, minced (or 1/8 tsp dry oregano) •1/2 tsp rosemary leaves, minced (or 1/8 tsp drie

A small palm sander with a large grit paper would probably work best but hey, use whatever is available. Aren't butter knives the tool of choice for most ladies???

"Sweet" Italian sausage has fennel seed in it (kind of a licorice flavor). I actually prefer Sweet Italian sausage over the other choices.

Nooooooooooooo!!! I love this store. Guess I'll be heading that way soon.

:lol:

And if Bill Clinton had resigned he wouldn't have been impeached, would he? Oh yea, they are still married aren't they.

I would hope that if you have a friend they would stand and support you as Beach Bum is doing for her friend. I admire her dedication to the friendship and her support when he needs it most. I would hope I could be a friend like that. I guess it's OK for Bill Clinton to mess around in the Oval Office and then lie about it under oath, but gasp..........Glenn Richardson needs to resign over it.

Wow!! Interesting interview................I think he done p*ssed her off.

Sorry, I know how nasty those chicken plants are. CBS and Consumer Reports are just sharing what they learned. Wonder what chemicals they are using to rinse those chicken before they leave the plant.............please don't make it worse. So now if you don't rinse you are ingesting chemicals as well.................

You're probably right, but it worries me they said don't even use the kitchen sink. I remember reading the book The Jungle by Upton Sinclair about the Chicago Stock Yards in the early 1900s. While the book hit on many issues, including labor laws I still can't get those vivid descriptions and pictures out of my head. That was sooooooooo many years ago. I think I just need to grow my own food, including meat or just become a vegetarian.

I don't know if I'll ever eat another chicken....... My husband will not eat chicken because when he was young he worked at a chicken plant, now I know why. The poultry industry is just plain dirty..............they said don't even wash the birds in the kitchen sink. Any spray could contaminate many things around it. My husband will not each chicken because when he was young he worked at a chicken plant, now I know why. CBS story here

I believe marriage should be between a man and a woman. I have no problem with civil unions and/or entering into a contract with anyone. I do believe there needs to be some work on the ability to visit a sick partner in the hospital and perhaps make some decisions for their medical care. Other than that what difference is there in a marriage (religious) and a contract (civil)?? Marriage is defined in the bible as between a man and woman. I don't think the states or feds need to get involved in the bible stuff, you know separation of church and state.

Well, now that you mention black bears, I guess there is a good reason to go in groups. Aren't there Grizzlies in Minnesota, too?? Good luck MrDis......hope you get some deer meat.

My son disconnected my wireless surround sound, seems the wireless on it was interferring with the wireless on my laptop. I don't know a whole lot about them but I know there is a huge price range. Good luck. Maybe someone that knows more will see this.

Glad you had fun, what a wonderful way to spend your 25th!!

I just wish they'd build one out this way.........Yorkville or Union would be great, heck Beulah would work too.

Ummmmmmmm, he's right isn't he. Santa has to have the tree to leave presents under.
