How much would a Topps '57 Mickey Mantle be worth, I
wonder. That was among the cards that my mother
appears to have thrown out in a fit of housecleaning
a couple decades ago (as well as my father's collection
of first editions).

He's a little old for that. I'm glad he didn't succumb
in his heyday - this despite the fact that I think that
anabolic use should be legal - if they want to f...mess
up their future for the present, that should be their
option.

I'm a sort of semifan, but not much at all of the Ms,
despite the fact that a friend of mine works for them.
Managerial tactics off the field are kind of interesting
in any case.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.01

      Title: Zesty Green Split Peas
 Categories: Vegetarian, Low-cal, Vegetables
      Yield: 1 servings

      2 c  Green split peas;uncooked           2 ts Ginger; peeled & minced
      8 c  -Water                              2 ts Jalapenos; seeded & chopped
      2    Bay leaves                          4 tb Black mustard seeds;
ground*
    1/2 ts Ground tumeric                      3 tb -Water
      1 ts Salt                                3 oz Coconut, shredded sweetened
      2 tb Canola oil;(I used 2 Tsp)           1 pn Soy margarine (optional)

MMMMM---------------------------FOR GARNISH--------------------------------
           Cilantro, chopped (optional)

  *If black mustard seeds are not available, use 1 Tbs dry mustard.

  Mix ground mustard powder in with water and allow to sit for 30 minutes.

  Bring split peas and water to a boil.  Lower heat to medium. Add bay leaves
  and tumeric (I forgot the tumeric--was good anyway). Simmer, covered, until
  peas are done, 40 to 45 minutes.  (When pressed between the thumb and the
  index finger, they break easily.) While simmering, uncover occasionally and
  stir, adding a Tbs or so of hot water if the mixture sticks to the bottom
  of the pan.  When cooked, remove and discard bay leaves. Add salt and keep
  warm.  Heat oil in a small, 6-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Saute
  ginger root and jalape o until ginger is lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes.
  Add mustard paste and cook for another minute, stirring constantly. Add
  coconut and stir several times. Remove from heat. Pour over the pea mixture
  and stir. (I had to drain my peas, because I still had lots of water in
  mine.)  Let stand covered for 15 minutes. Add a dab of soy margarine if
  desired and garnish with cilantro. (I didn't use the cilantro)

  I think this would make a good filling for pita pockets. I didn't think the
  peas were "zesty" enough, so I sprinkled hot pepper vinegar on mine.
