I'm bored to death these days. Terrible, mind numbing boredom.

I've got so much crap to do. I have to refinance the house, get a contractor, get the house painted, get those fucking inspection bastards off my back before they sue me and build that thing that Sping wants in the backyard.

SHEEP'S HAGGIS

The stomach-bag of a sheep
The pluck---i.e. the heart, liver, brains and lights (lungs) and any other sweetmeats
Half a pound minced beef-suet
8 oz tripe
Two teacupfuls toasted oatmeal
Four onions (parboiled)
One pint of the pluck boilings (no other liquid)
Salt (4 teasp)
Pepper (1-1/4 teasp)

Wash the bag well in cold water, put it into hot water, and scrape it; then let it lie in cold water all night with a little salt. Wash the pluck well; put it into a pan, letting the windpipe hang over the side (into another pan to avoid mess); cover it with boiling water, add a teaspoonful of salt, and let it boil for two hours; then take it out of the pan, and when it is cold cut away the windpipe. Grate a quarter of the liver (not using the rest for the haggis), and mince the heart and lights, the suet and the par-boiled onions. Get within sprinting distance of the nearest loo and chew the brains, tripe and testicles into a pulp (best part). Add to all these the oatmeal, which has been dried and toasted to a golden colour before the fire or in the oven; also the pepper and salt, and a pint of the liquor in which the pluck was boiled. Mix these all well together. Take the bag and fill it little more than half full of the mince; if it be too full, it will burst in boiling. Sew up the hole with needle and thread, and put the haggis into a pan of boiling water. Prick the bag occasionally with a needle, to prevent it bursting. Boil this for three hours, then serve it on a hot plate.

Greyhound has been offering $15 fares. Let's see what they mean by that.

Cleveland to Youngstown for $15, yeah, that's a deal.

I used to take the bus back and forth from Rochester to Saratoga Springs. What a fucking nightmare.

Heruka:
They want $40 each way to DC and back. That's insane.
(Tue Jul 30, 2002 - 1:05:51 pm)

Chewing Wax:
It's also probably an 18 hour ride each way.

I don't understand how these places stay in business. Amtrak of course is a money pit that the feds like to throw my hard earned taxes down. Even with a ride on amtrak costing as much as a plane ticket, they still lose something like $200 per person. It's crazy. But Greayhound. They don't seem that cheap. I bet I can find a cheap comuter plane for not too much more than that. at least it would make up for the 10 hour road trip.

Amtrak is subsidized because we would have any train system without it. And yes it costs about the same as a plane ticket, but the fed picks up most of it. Even with the trains full all day long they don't make money. That's the feds.

I can't stand him. I really hate his guts. I want to fight him.

That Collinsworth is a putz.
(Tue Jul 30, 2002 - 1:19:43 pm)

Chewing Wax:
Collinsworth that is. I just want to punch him in his smarmy geekoid face.
(Tue Jul 30, 2002 - 1:19:51 pm)

Yeah, I wanna fight him, too.

Decoy, did you get a e-mail confirmation of your golf ticket purchase?

I think I need to start drinking havily again. I need to start drinking early too. At like 7 or am. I feel destitute. I just wallow away my days. I work a total of 20 hours a week or something.

Chewing Wax:
Wallow? Really?

Not yet.

Good. Then I won't worry. I have the confirmation number.

I got an email from some folks that said they want to practically create a peaceful sublime and energetic world. I'm thinking of helping.

Yeah. I have the confirmation number. But what good is it I wonder?

I see what didn't make sense. The neighbor's window wasn't broken until my window fell and broke it. I hope that clears things up.
