The Baroness: Topic #1
Vhy do I haff to do the cooking post? It is because I haff tits, yes?

Ground turkey/ground chicken in the place of beef does not have to be a sacrifice in the place of taste to get the lower fat content. But you do have to do some creative seasoning. One thing that seems to work for me is to take two beef bullion cubes per pound and mix it into the cooking meat. It with give it the smell of beef which is 75% of the taste, without the fat. (The mouth-feel is very different, though. One has to get used to that.) Do not add any salt to your recipes.

It is a good substitute for things like spaghetti sauces, sloppy joes, burrito/enchilada fillings and such but does lousy for things where the meat is nearly plain, like meatloaf or patties.

I am so fed up with politics already. While notionally conservative, I would be willing to vote for Obama if, in the future, everytime some brings out a charge of racism as to why something bad happens to them, I can kick them in the nuts.

Twice.

Goes double for Rev Al and Jesse.

The Baroness: Topic #3
I may not agree with Tyler Perry or Spike Lee, but I know that the former can make a film which is intelligent and that latter just insults mine while making a film.

MunDane: Topic #4
Why is it that every bodice ripper, constume drama with major star power has some no-name, non-speaking extra as the only nudity. Or some heaping dollop of man-ass. Yes, I am looking at you The Duchess.

The Baroness: How vould you know, dah-ling?

MunDane: Shut up! You dragged me to see it.

Which brings me to my next topic:

Topic #5
If the clothing you are wearing ladies exposes more than 3.14159 inches of cleavage. I am gonna look. You put that top on, not me. Cover yourself up, if you don’t want me looking. Oh and please, spare me the imprecation that you “didn’t dress for me”. If it is a private outfit, wear it when only that special someone can see you. Public is public, sweetie.

Yeah, so’s Jim, which is kind of why you’re not supposed to talk about it here.

What I want to know is when did the tables flip *completely* on this issue and man-ass became the predominant form of nudity on television? Why can’t we have an equal split of babe & dude ass? why so damn much man ass?

I blame Dennis Franz.

I think it’s a weird manifestation of the double standard. In movies where there’s nudity, you can have women prancing around in the altogether, full frontal, for a significant portion of it and get it rated R, and yet show a guy’s bits and you’re likely to get NC-17 or X because then that’s PORN, brutha! And yet bare man-ass is okay on TV while normally it seems that bare woman-ass isn’t. I guess male nudity only becomes “provocative” in the presence of female nudity.

Though I do find it kind of bemusing that wet, bare man-chest has become so omnipresent in every fucking show on TV, and there seems to be no problem with this. But the only time women strip down to something vaguely comparable is in scenes that are so blatant in their gratuitousness that they’re practically insulting.

I just like pi and cleavage. One on top of the other. Order is irrelevant.

so is that 3.14159 in length or width or did you mean 3.14159 square inches ... which isn’t a whole lot to be honest.

3.14159 inches of cleavage may not be a lot by itself, but the boobs that cleavage suggest go on forever.

OH COME ON, THAT WAS A FUNNY PI JOKE. Philistines.

You can tell a lot about a person by what they think Pi is.

A Mathematician will tell you that Pi is the ratio of the diameter to the circumference of a circle.

A Physicist will tell you that Pi is 3.14159 and it goes on forever never repeating.

An Engineer will tell you that Pi is about 3. But I would use 4 to be safe.

A supervisor will want to know when you need Pi by, and how much it will cost and he doesn’t have enough people.

A manager will go “I believe its dessert is it not.”

And a salesman will tell you, “Well the engineer will tell you its about 3 but I can get it for you at 2 and a half.”

Oh gods, Pi jokes????? Is that what we’ve degraded to? I think I may need to hang myself a little to get over this… just a little though.

I want full frontal woman nudity on TV already, come on If I can be blinded by Dennis Franz’s ass on NYPD Blue, I think I can restore my vision by seeing some hot chick’s First TV full frontal scene on the small screne. I wouldn’t mind seeing Summer Glau nekked on terminator.
