• two cars

    From Denis Mosko@1:153/757.1315 to Dave Drum on Thu Dec 23 15:04:22 2021
    //Hello Dave, //

    The two cars we got rid of when we changed residents were 20 and 17
    years old. Neither of them had any after market treatment. Both of
    them had finish and undercarriage as good as new when we sold them
    except for minor parking lot dents. No sign of rust or peeling paint.

    Dave! Do You have 2 vehicles?

    Just to be clear - that was Dale talking about two cars - a sedan and
    an SUV. (Sport-Utility-Vehicle)

    Currently I have just two since I sold the motorcycle. A BMW sedan that
    is my "daily driver" and an older, small pickup truck that I use for
    truck stuff on an "as needed" basis.

    No. I have one car - the BMW. And one small truck - the Ranger. I use
    the car for car things like daily transport and going to the store or restaurant. I use the little truck for truck things like hauling stuff
    to the recycler or moving bulky abjects to or from my house. It is only
    use for normal transportation if the car is in the mechanic's shop for repairs/maintenance.

    I saved that recipe immediately. Back in the early 2000s when I was living
    in Carbondale and volunteering weekends running WSIU-FM, SIU-C's NPR
    station, one of the shows that I listened to at the station, fresh off the satellite, was "Car Talk". Loved that show!

    Title: Curried Ham and Turkey
    Categories: Main dish, Poultry, Usenet
    Yield: 24 Servings

    1/2 c Butter, margarine; or
    -turkey fat
    1 c Unsifted flour
    2 1/4 ts Salt
    1/8 ts Pepper
    1 1/2 ts Curry powder
    4 ts Sweet pepper flakes
    1 tb Instant miced onions
    2 1/4 qt Hot milk
    1 1/4 lb Cooked turkey; diced (4
    -cups)
    3/4 lb Cooked ham; diced (2 cups)

    Line four 8x8x2-inch baking pans with heat-resistant freezer wrap.
    Allow enough extra wrap to fold over top. Use one pan for each six
    servings or one-fourth of the recipe. Do not line pans for food to
    be served without freezing.

    Melt fat. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and curry powder. Add pepper
    flakes and onion. Stir in milk slowly. Cook until thickened,
    stirring constantly. Stir in turkey and ham.

    TO SERVE WITHOUT FREEZING: Heat to serving temperature after turkey
    and ham are stirred into hot mixture. Serve over hot toast or
    biscuits.

    TO FREEZE: Pour each fourth of the mixture to be frozen into a
    baking pan. Pack food tightly to avoid air pockets. Cool for 30
    minutes at room temperature. Complete wrapping by pulling paper up
    over top of food. Put edges of wrap together and fold several times
    so paper lies directly on top of food. Fold ends of freezer wrap
    over the top and seal with freezer tape. Label with name of food,
    date of freezing, and last date the food should be used for best
    eating quality (about 6 months). Freeze immediately for 10 to 12
    hours before removing packages from the pans.

    TO HEAT FROZEN CURRY: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. (moderate).
    Remove freezer wrap. Place food in baking pan. Bake 1 hour or until
    mixture is bubbly at edges. Stir occasionally during heating. After
    heating, stir gently until sauce is smooth. Serve over hot toast or
    biscuits. Posted to MC-Recipe Digest V1 #184

    The "Knuckleheads" is where I learned that the recommended oil change
    interval of every 3000 miles (conventional) or 7500 miles (synthetic)
    is an oil company marketing gimmick. 5000 mile (conventional) or 10,000
    mile (synthetic) are perfectly fine and will save you money in the long
    haul.

    They are also where I had my mantra of "Try the cheap fix first" endorsed.
    They also espoused that position. If it works you've saved a bunch of
    money and if it doesn't you're not out that much. It's also what I tell
    my customers down the AutoZone.

    This is not a recommended recipe - but it's a "Burton".
