    another crack down is instituted--could be a vicious cycle.
    Remember, these people are in it for the money.
    Consider the setting we've been talking about.
    True, in most, but not all intances.

    I'm guessing all circumstances.

    Then you're going to have bloopers. The techies should
    Sometimes a blooper or two can't be helped in filming but those can usually be editied out.
    I wonder why that would be.
    Just the way things go. Like an average person putting a thumb over a
    camera lens, sometimes just unavoidable.

    The level of precision required - after all, these
    are not average circumstances - makes me think that
    such occurrences are in some way intentional.

    at ;east be clad in time-appropriate colors if not
    If possible, yes but it might not be realistic for some people. If I were required to wear certain colors for specific times, I'd have to either pass or go out and buy (if it were a one time deal). I do not wear or have in my wardrobe some specific colors by choice.
    In the situation we've been referencing, it should
    be a norm.
    Should be, but you have the "I'll do as I please" mavericks. Some may be
    let go, others kept for one reason or another.

    I just cannot come even close to believing that!
    People who would be liabilities in one way or another
    are going to be set up in a position where their havoc
    is minimized, if they can't be let go altogether
    (director's idiot stepbrother, that kind of thing).

    Probably more than we'll ever suspect. Now a lot of things like that can, if caught, be computer editied out tho.
    Then I wonder why they don't have ever-vigilant
    computer watchdogs to take care of this kind of
    issue automatically and in the background.
    Your guess is as good as mine on that matter.

    Math was never fun for me, just glad I don't have to deal with the abstract stuff now.
    That's 'cuz you didn't watch the show!
    No, my parents didn't get tv until I was in 4th grade, then only one
    channel for years. A few more years of 2 channels, then they hooked into cable my freshman year of college. My maternal grandfather had a PhD in mathmatics but his ability did not rub off on me.

    In Washington, there were in my memory always 4
    stations, CBS, NBC, ABC, MBS, and then at one
    point a public station became available.

    Let me catch up to you later on that one.
    I'm bunning with curiosity.
    Got you in a real pickle there?
    Yep, I think you've pun-ted me into a corner.
    OK, this one is closed.

    annoying. Bitter melon has a similar flavor
    profile, but it's less watery and bitter enough
    to be interesting (though I don't eat it often
    either).
    Bitter melon is much more so than zuchinni.
    2. If you pick them without gloves, you can
    get an itch. I'm not making this up.
    Depends on how sensitive you are to the plant. I've never had
    trouble > with that.
    Perhaps they can sense fear, like dogs are
    supposed to.
    Possibly so. Tomato plants were the ones that gave me itchies when I was younger.

    Most sources of contact dermatitis don't bother me,
    even poison ivy, but zucchini hairs make me itch.

    It's peculiar how one misteak follows anoher.
    Happens to me more and more these days.
    Keyboard or eyes?
    I like to think 50-50.
    Mine is more of a keyboard that is a bit flaky at times.

    I would like to be able to make that claim,
    but often I'm goofing up on my own.

    my > feet more for kitchen type work but still not to the point I was before > the knee started giving me trouble.
    Are you going to have any longer-lasting restrictions
    or cautions?
    To be seen--I'm going to continue the therapy for a few more weeks
    (trying to get more RoM) but don't go back to the doctor until October.
    He's happy with the overall progress.

    Good.

    Steve likes them baked, with butter (but not as much as you use) and cinnamon.
    I prefer my butter with a side of starch, not
    the other way round.
    I like a good balance, but white potatoes instead of sweet. (G)

    Unless it's for others, balance isn't uppermost in my
    cooking, and in my eating it never is.

    I either buy the bag or a good number of loose ones,--depends on
    which > look better. And no, I don't buy the puny ones either.
    If you use them regularly, puny ones don't
    make sense.
    Definately no sense in buying puny ones. I'll get the medium to large, depending on what I'm making. Sometimes part of the large will get
    stowed in the fridge for later use after I cut off what I need.

    If you use them enough, half an onion won't have time
    to go bad. Last time at Lilli's I discovered multiple
    half onions in the fridge. I used a couple of them, but
    there was one I didn't find until it was far too late.

    I've found that it's easier to prepare modest
    quantities myself. It takes too much time to
    teach others how to do stuff and make sure it
    gets done right.
    But more fun if you do it with someone else who knows what they're
    doing > or can be taught easily enough.
    I find cooking a social activity but also solitary
    in the sense of don't get between me and what I
    need to do.
    Sometimes that's my M.O., other times I'll take all the help I can get.

    Ask about the time I had people make crab rangoons
    for me.

    We often put half an onion back in the frig in a zip lock baggee, but

    Hi MIchael,

    another crack down is instituted--could be a vicious cycle.
    Remember, these people are in it for the money.
    Consider the setting we've been talking about.
    True, in most, but not all instances.

    I'm guessing all circumstances.

    I'm thinking some may be in it just for the opportunity to work. Not
    everybody who works in it is swayed by "the movie industry".

    I just cannot come even close to believing that!
    People who would be liabilities in one way or another
    are going to be set up in a position where their havoc
    is minimized, if they can't be let go altogether
    (director's idiot stepbrother, that kind of thing).

    Exactly! If I have to wear concert black, I will, but it's not my
    choice for normal wear.

    annoying. Bitter melon has a similar flavor
    profile, but it's less watery and bitter enough

    I've never come into contact with poison ivy, and intend to keep it that
    way.

    It's peculiar how one misteak follows anoher.

    Mine is more of a keyboard that is a bit flakey at times.

    To err is human; to really mess things up requires a computer.

    Good.

    Coming along much faster than I expected, even with the early setbacks.

    Unless it's for others, balance isn't uppermost in my
    cooking, and in my eating it never is.

    Some things just have to be. Steve says that a sweet potato doesn't need
    any sort of extra sugar, it's sweet enough already. Yet, some people
    load it down with extra sugar--throws the balance way off. But a scoop
    of a good vanilla ice cream on apple pie isn't too sweet, just adds a
    nice note of a different flavor to the pie. By the same token, a wedge
    of extra sharp cheddar cheese with the same piece of pie adds a
    different flavor note, but just as good.

    I either buy the bag or a good number of loose ones,--depends
    on > ML> which > look better. And no, I don't buy the puny ones
