Question for ECH

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

from now on, if I end up at a party at someone's house that's a douche, I'm gonna secretly lick the yogurt and/or sour cream in their fridge.

How is it that I've never thought of this?

[Suu]

I cut off the tip of my thumb today at work.

...with the fucking bread knife.

That's not a question.

That's not a question.

i have a question.  i have no culinary talent, but i remember hearing something one time about how if you have a recipe for, say, some kind of stew that makes, say, a gallon and calls for X amount of, say, salt - but if you want to make, say, four gallons of the same kind of stew, you don't necessarily just use 4 times as much salt.  usually it is less.  what's up with that?

(sorry about all the "say's" in there, just sayin)

what does 60C translate into in Freedomheit(tm)?

"Freedomheit"

anyway, just wanted to say that Google got a built-in extra-smart calculator that is really good at doing conversions like this:

http://www.google.com/search?q=60+C+in+F
http://www.google.com/search?q=5+euros+per+gram+in+dollars+per+1/8+oz
http://www.google.com/search?q=1.29+euro+per+liter+in+dollars+per+gallon

bonus points if you figure out what the last two conversions are about

without clicking the links, I'm guessing that the 2nd link is about converting the price of a bag of pot and the 3rd link is either for gasoline or whiskey.

and rong, soups and stews have a liquid content that evaporates while salt does not evaporate, meaning that your soup/stew will get saltier the longer it cooks. Always a good idea to leave the salt out until the end, at which time you can adjust for taste without worrying about that.
