I don't think I've cooked chicken while living in England. Not because things got messed up - I never messed up chicken - but because it's been so much easier to make spaghetti or curries or other things.
It should be easy to make.  But first time, it was that it was slightly undercooked, this time, I set the fire alarm off. (after I took the chicken out)

A "fryer" takes about one hour to cook;  larger chickens 1 1/2 hours.  All at 350 degrees.  Follow my advice and your chicken will taste great, assuming it's fresh and seasoned well.

Not especially dynamic in the manner of the Ignore list, of course . . . just casts their ID in boldface here or there.

My friends' facebook post- I guess it's from some song or something:

Quote"Religion and sex are powerplays
Manipulate the people for the money they pay
Selling skin, selling God
The numbers look the same on their credit cards.
Politicians say no to drugs
While we pay for wars in South America.
Fighting fire with empty words
While the banks get fat
And the poor stay poor
And the rich get rich
And the cops get paid
To look away
As the one percent rules America."

This is what it normally sounds like when I'm just messing around on guitar:

I was just sauteeing the breasts, not the whole chicken, but when I make a whole one, I'll follow that!

I think I figure out what happened:  The burners were hotter than I expected which made the olive oil too hot and when I added the chicken broth, it became smokey as hell.

Tonight is something I am familiar with making, though I screwed the rec. up (forgot garlic and put a tbs of salt in instead of 2 teaspoons!  ((though took some out)).  Hopefully, it's still good.  Here's hoping!   8)

EDIT:  Success!  even w/o the garlic, its good :)

Sorry to hear that Paul... what are the consequences?  Do you have to take a more remedial theory class and then test again?

Just have to take a survey of music theory.  Could've attempted the test again in Dec, but thought I might be better off just taking the theory course again, just to have a solid base of basic theory before I head into the advanced world :)

Just glad I passed the two history tests, so I can take upper level classes :)

About an incident involving Depardieu on an airline.  It's not the story that's funny but Cooper laughing more and more at his jokes until he is giggling uncontrollably. :D

Yes the example you quoted was clearly nonsense. So is it the first, third, or some other aggregate that resembles some automatic kitchen utensils?

Success to you! Don't hesitate to sling the odd question, if I may be of any service.

Pity. I really do prefer my simple, manual can-opener.
