Mrs cane says that it was in Merka on the way to Smith Island (East Coast -
Brits) served up by some tiny VC Mama San. UFO - Unidentified Frying
Objects!
Obviously being British (Irish says Mrs C) she was too polite to complain.
Although she did winder where the spuds were! (Paddy gag)

around due to oversleeping. (can you oversleep - in my books you can
never get enough sleep!!) you dash past "greasy joe's" or whatever
your local is called and you can smell the smells wafting out of the
door!

Boogie Street in Singapore in 1968, on a Sunday morning..I said to the
Mem...lets have a proper chinese, Chinese breakfast!...and we went into this
cafe....empty, it was....and this old man didnt want custom, Im sure..but we
sat down..and were given a menu written in Mandarin....so we ordered
something (English, you see - didnt want to show how ignorant we were, not
knowing Mandarin (or was it Cantonese?))..anyway, after about 15
minutes..this old chap totters into the room bearing stone-cold-chicken.
Boiled it had been, once. Now it was covered in cold grease, and you could
actually see where the blood vessels had been cut, cos there was blood still
oozing from them....
Being English, we didnt complain. And ate the bloody lot! (well, not the
bones)..and the taste was truly indescribable... but imagine 'bleuuchhh!' and
thats near...

The worst eggspample I can recall was on the plane when I came back from
Johannesburg in June. The flight departed Jo'burg at 21:00. We were
awakened at about 4:30 for a 6:00 landing. I had consumed a large steak
in the hotel at about 19:00 and them another big meal starting at about
22:00 on the plane. I was not too hungry at 4:30 am and the "food" [1]
was reheated in a microwave - including poach egg - YUCK.

My mum always said "hunger is good sauce" and being of the war generation
did not like us to waste food - a cardinal sin chez nous was to
ever throw bread even crusts on the fire.
The worst breakfast I ever had was after a skinful of the devil's buttermilk
when I woke up with the hangover from hell and a flock of
sparrows waiting to escape from my tightly clenched buttocks. I was staying
at a mate's house and his mum, who makes Ann Widdicombe
look as though she could join the fluffy club insisted on making us a good
breakfast before we left to go back to uni.
Unfortunately, one of my pet hates is a fried egg cooked any other way than
like a soft frisbee - as in I can cut it up and spread it like
pate on me toast. Mrs Whoevenin thisprotecteddomainshallremainnameless
<shiver> presented me with anaemic sausages and flaccid
bacon which quivering alongside were a couple of the rawest fried eggs in
living memory. I swear to this day the only heat that had ever reached them
was from the hens arse the day they were laid. Well this conjured up the
days when my mum's cureall along with brown lemonade was a frothy beaten up
raw egg in milk with a drop of brandy and the contents off my
guinness-soaked guts rose in my throat
like the lava from mount etna. To retain my dignity I shut my trap tight.
This had the effect of my cheeks being blown out and a hose of
black bile being projected across her kitchen leaving a delicate collage on
her formica table, worktop et al.
Needless to say I was never invited back.>

Dunno what's wrong with porridge, grand stuff but I have to have milk and a
bit o'sugar with mine.

Half-cold lumpy oatmeal. I was a guest in someone's home so I did try
it....even though oatmeal is a close number 2 on my "DO NOT EAT THIS"

rubber egg breakfast has to be the major achievement although some of the
other breakfasts are also interesting, they do a particularly nasty sausage
that appears to be made from cotton wool and axle grease. They serve the
food on local flights as well but at least on those you have to get to the
airport just before suffering the meal, you are not happily sleeping then
woken up to the Fedics Food breakfast. To make this very special meal even
better, try it on a Jo'burg to Durban flight where they have to start
serving just after the wheels leave the ground so that they can clear
everything before landing 40 minutes later.

tomato sauce (ketchup, that is for you Merkans)... minced beef is a
valuable resource and I eat it regularly in various dishes, but definitely
not on toast and not at 6:00 am in a cold 'dining hall' aka tin shed thing.
Mind you, the brekkie they served up on the plane to Sydney this past
Tuesday morning looked pretty bad, a lump of scrambled egg with some kind of
potato. I passed on that one. What's wrong with people? Don't they
understand breakfast?

the kitchen the first thing she would cook was my father's egg, scrambled or
very hard over. This went on a plate and into the oven which was set at warm
with the door left ajar. Then she would stew two prunes which went in a
glass at his place. As my brother and I came downstairs she would get our
breakfast and send us off to school and then she would leave to go to the
school where she taught. Sometime after eight he would come downstairs to
confront his breakfast before he left for work. E{ric}

wasn't too bad. It was edible and I was hungry.

broccoli... I adore broccoli... But, we were warned of turbulence and of
course that hit as soon as my meal arrived. The rice kept jumping off the
fork and disappearing between my legs... They must get their brain around
dessert though, a little bite size thinggy of Cadbury's milk chokkie doesn't
cut it. I don't really care for chocolate that much, why can't we have an
apple or a banana ? Oh, yeah, I know, my state and it's fruit prohibition
laws, bummer.

I don't know about nowadays, but QANTAS used [1] to be the 1st choice of
pissheads like myself for the following reason ...
Me: Can I have another Bacardi & Coke, please?
Stewardess (for it is she): That's your fourth.
Me: I know. Is there a problem?
S: Oh no; it's just going to be a tiring flight for me if I have to keep
bringing you B&Cs. How about I just leave this bottle of Bacardi here
and you help yourself; here's a litre of coke too and I'll get you an
ice bucket.
Me: Truly, thou art a goddess ...
A Bacardi hangover at 30,000 feet, however, is not something to be
recommended.
[1] Last time I used them was 9 years ago.

Big difference between domestic and international.
Last time I flew overseas with QANTAS was 1990. Round trip to UK.
Cattle class (I was paying). Reasonably liberal with the goodies. Time
before that was 1988. Round trip to LA. Business class (DEC paid).
Stewardess (this was a bloke) said that he was going to have a bit of
a kip. There were several bottles of Lanson NV left in ice buckets.

I always did the salt...and the beer...my dad uses large coffee
cans...buries them so they are even with the ground...fills them half

Okay that makes me the second (or perhaps third) person to be driven
mad by slugs.. Bazzie is right! West Coast
slugs are the biggest, ugliest, meanest and most gawd awful thangs. My
very first camping trip in BC was almost
ruined when a HUGE greenish slimey tried to force its way into our
tent. Fortunately my hero (and SO now) rescued
me from the monsters slime! He gallantly grabbed the offensive
slimester (using his underwear of course) and
hucked it deep into the woods, where to this day, there is prolly an
ugly slug, in a pair of too big underwear, with
a really bad attitude about women screaming in the wee hours, looking
for revenge. Needless to say, I will not return
to that particular campsite. In the meantime, I have come to terms
with the slugs, they don't frighten me, but I do
salt 'em down!

Some residents seem to eat anything.
I like to play "guess what the pureed stuff is" when the wagon comes
out.
Some of the "meat" items are difficult to figure out. Sunday it was
fish....coulda fooled me.

have carpets everywhere except the pool room, and the restrooms. And I fix
stuff too. And I seem to be in charge of lighting the fireplaces at
dinnertime. And now that the local cable company has upgraded, I get to
reprogram the residents televisions.
We had Lobster in Garlic Butter as a dinner choice last night. Smelled
good. Looked horrible. I thought it was the puréed stuff, but the cook
assured me that it looked like that when he opened the bag. I had the Prime
Rib instead. Dessert was good. Three colors of Jell-O with that white
stuff that passes for whipped cream.

The desserts are the best part usually. We serve them with the rest of
the meal and lots

I completely agree with you, Baz. I worked in a hospital that had
carpeting in the rooms on the "private" floors and plain old linoleum on
the floors on the "staff" (i.e., teaching) floors (FYI, jane, it's
Richland Memorial that I'm talking 'bout). I told everyone I worked
with in the Admitting department that if I were *ever* to be admitted,
they'd better *never* put me in a room with carpet! I'm no fan of
iatrogenic [1] diseases!
No offense intended to your carpet-cleaning abilities, Zol. ;-)

Back in my SNF days, we'dve never seen the residents fed lobster in
garlic butter, much less prime rib. This must be some fancy-schmancy
private-pedicure type of place...they eat fancier food than *I* do!

But the stuff we throw on the floor is not suitable for carpeting...of

No much to it really ...
I was working an evening shift and we do 10pm rounds or "breathing
checks" IYkWIM.
I walked into one room with my team leader and noticed a lady had one
eye wide open.
She's awake , I thought (or dead). "Oh" said the team leader "We forgot
to take her eye out"
I didn't learn that in school :^(.
Unfortunately she didn't bother to take it out . I would have liked to
see that.

I had an old b/f once who had a glass eye...when he didn't have his
eye in...he wore one of those pirate patches...very dashing...but it
still grossed me out to watch him pop the eyeball out...and even more
so when he'd leave it sitting on the kitchen countertop...

That's why I spend most of my time shampooing them. Actually the only
problem areas are in the Nursing Care Center. Their dining room gets done 3
times a week, and the hallway twice a week. Because the building was built
with HUD loans, they have specified that the dining room MUST have carpet,
and at least 2 of the Nursing Care rooms are to be carpeted. The other 12
have tile floors, which the other maint. guy has to buff during the day.
The Altzheimer's wing is also carpeted, and they seem to keep it much
cleaner than some of the other areas.

Most of our desserts are frozen, and thawed about 2 hours before the meal.
Had a piece of chocolate something pie ( I forget what it was called)
tonight. It was the perfect dessert after a plate of Shrimp Scampi.

with kitchens. Some prefer to cook for themselves, but the majority eat in
teh dining rooms. We just had a woman move in alst month. She pays $100 a
day for a 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment, all utilities, except phone are
included. Meals are also included. As is booze during the weekly Happy
Hour on Thursday afternoon.

Sean Connery, Harrison Ford, and Patrick Stewart are men.
Brendan Fraser, Tom Cruise, and Brad Pitt are practically girls in drag.

At least you know she has sensible taste in men/boys. <g> Never saw it
myself, he's too pretty and arrogant looking. When I was a nipper I liked
Balthazar Getty. He's cute in a good way. Also that bloke that played David
in Roseanne. Similar, and cute in a good way too. The kind of guy who makes
you say 'Aaww'. A change is as good as a rest, I always say. <g>

(another long story!) and then discovered it's the house that Jack Practised
DIY In. And he wasn't very good at it. We can't afford to get it all done
at once so the house is a state, bare painted walls (OK if the plastering
was up to much), and really bad decor. Plus I am a bad housekeeper, I admit
it. I have too much stuff. Everything has cat paw prints in it, mainly
because they come in with muddy paws and jump on stuff.
Eventually we'd like to move to an island off the coast (well, obviously
<g>) of Scotland, we're a tad fed-up of cities. And slugs. And woodlice. And
big hairy spiders. (don't mind them, but hey.) And upstairs neighbours with
heavy feet. And city employers. And city prices. (less than in the country,
but hey again.)
>1- Housekeeping is not my strong suit don't ya know (2)

>2- But this was due to a leaky glass door and Vancouver winter weather.
We haven't had it quite that bad, although we did have 'rising damp' caused
by one of our window frames resembling a sponge and lettign gallons of soft
Scottish water in.

Oh, do say more... nice mental image, even though I don't remember him from
the series.... I particularly liked the episode of DS9 where they were in an
alternate reality and he was a swashbuckling pirate type. Acksherly that was
the first episode I ever saw. Wow.

Hmm, I think the phrase is 'Hubba hubba'. Not to be confused with 'Hubba
Bubba', because that's bubble gum.

Hubba hubba is right...and it couldn't be Hubba Bubba anyway, cause
ol' Hawk is about as far from a "bubba" type as you could get. LOL

Most definately not. I saw old Vincent on the telly not long ago. He's turn

Yes yes yes yesyesyesyesyes!!!!!!!!!
I taped it off the TV but the kids managed to insert Roxy Music 'Hard
Rain' video in the middle. <sigh> I have only seen it available pre-
recorded in the Merkin format so when I upgrade my vid to one that can
translate Merking to Glish I shall buy it, or maybe even before....
<sigh>
I *love* that film.
Everyone - you've got to see it!!!
