The problem is that the person who is dumb enough to use USENET
usage as a hiring criterion is in human resources, and acts as a
gateway to the engineering department. The real engineers look
at my posting record and see it as a reason to hire me - but only
if the HR droids don't discard the application first.

I'm not advocating changing the subject merely to spite Google, but I am
curious as to why Google doesn't do it right. Google is a nice thing,
but it sure has it's share of quirks. Keyword searches don't find all
the messages that contain those words, nor can it find all the messages
by an author; I wonder why that is. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme
or reason to it.

I don't think doing anything to the _corpse_ will matter, since its
owner will no longer be alive and responsibility for what happens to
his body will no longer be his . However, I think that the
_voluntary_ admission of pork into the body while still alive is
unforgivable, so how about pork spray? We let it be known that if
hostilities don't stop immediately, an aerosol of pork fat will be
sprayed over selected portions of the population at a rate of one
square mile per hostile incident or something like that.

AFAIK, "Buffalo" wings is just chicken wings, Buffalo, NY style.
Supposedly Buffalo, NY has some kind of wing tradition.

But it's true. There's a pile of wing recipies and tips on the net.

My first instinct is usually wrong! :(

That's ok, you just need to invert your first instincts and you should
be good to go. ;-)

heh, heh... I never kept tally of how many times my first instincts
were right or wrong, but I think (hope, too) they're usually right.
Last night was wings and beers night and the guy I was shooting pool

to go with my first instinct. I had to stop and make sure I really
thought about the bank shot first. It worked out really well.

The place I get them here in town has some of the best. The previous
owner, Caroline finally sold the place and the cooks went with it.
At one time Caroline did all the cooking. She made me some shrimp

I've ever had.

One day I'll figure out the secret of their bleu cheese dressing.

One point I failed to mention in a past thread...

They attack our civilians (as part of their "war") because they
figgure we support our gov't and therefore are militants. We could
look at it the same way and purposely attack theirs.

Do we have any more power than they to change our gov't? Maybe, but
I don't see how anything could ever please them.

In principle that is true. THe diet of farm pigs cn be controlled (except
for unlucky intruders into the pigs' feeding area such as insects, snails,
worms, etc).

One of the eye-openers I gathered from the news reports about mad-cow
disease is the degree to which animal byproducts are rendered into
components of supposedly-vegetarian animal feeds.
