  • To owners of Porkert Universal Grain Mills...?

    To owners of Porkert Universal Grain Mills... when facing the handle do they grind by turning the handle clockwise or counter-clockwise?

    This is the model that has the base that can attach different things such as the grain mill head and the meat mincer head.

    I am thinking of buying the grain head to attach to a power source, but I need to know which direction the mill needs to turn.

    Thanks in advance.

    What is the british slang word for a pendantic, lower-level official who denies assistance, or obstructs progress by quoting obscure rules that tie his hands?

    This type prig usually says something along the lines of "I'd like to help you, but..."

    Thanks.

  • Are capital gains included in the proposed tax increase on the wealthy?

    I'm not interested in riling the trolls on either side, just looking for info.

    Here say will do. Citation would be even spankier.

    Without raising the capital gains tax to a parity with income tax (35% to 39%, instead of 10% to 13% current capital gains level), any heated battle over raising the taxes on the wealthy just proves that both sides are fighting a hollow battle to keep the real issue hidden from the public.

  • Anyone else get watery Angostura Bitters?

    Replenished my empty bitters bottle with the large size of Angostura bitters. I'm disappointed after spending so much money that it is very weak and watery compared to the product in the past.

    Anyone else experience this? A mistake at the manufacturer's or are they cheaping out? The original was OK for cocktails, but this is too much to pay for the weak stuff I got this time around.

  • Is this person a troll? Seeking your opinion?

    Here is an interesting question I saw on YA:

    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Amt_a...

    I think the poster is a troll, based on their imploring not to be picked on whilst begging for public ridicule at the same time, but I wanted to see what the LGBT folks thought. Do you take him at face value?

    I have know some drag queens who were gay (and some who weren't), and many gay men and women. None of the gay men or women I have been close with were cross dressers, and all of the above would never have gone out to a hetero function in drag while still in high school or jr high. Am I just really out of touch with the current state of the gay union, or does this sound really phoney to you too?

    Backup question: Being gay, how would you feel if you found out your teen age or younger child was getting email invites from this person of unknown motive?

    Cheers.

  • Anyone use majic paint from tsc?

    Tractor supply store dropped the Valspar tractor paint. That really flowed out sweet and was a tough finish once cured.

    They replaced it with Majic paint made from soy beans, because, you know monsanto doesn't make enough money.

    Has anyone used Majic paint? What is your opinion of how it goes on and what the finish is like and what is the cure time like? Oh, and what is clean up like (paint thinner or water)?

    Thanks.

  • Name or word for chinese cooking vessel?

    In china they have a thing to heat broth over charcoal. It is like a doughnut-shaped bowl that sits on coals with a tall chimney that rises up in the center to allow the charcoal to vent. It can be made of simple brass or ornate porcelain.

    People sit around the bowl of simmering broth and place in it bits of vegetables (chinese lettuce) and thinly sliced meat to cook before eating.

    What is the word or name for this cooking vessel?

  • "drumstick" in an Indian recipe...?

    When a recipe from India lists an ingredient by the single word "drumstick", does that mean a chicken leg drumstick? It doesn't quite make sense in the recipe I am looking at, which is a curry gravy for clams.

    Thanks for your input.
