Ärende: weather and not 803

You'll be going subtropical at this rate. Maybe not in your
lifetime if you keep drinking white whisky and rotgut like
that, but in your grandchildren's lifetime.

  Even

Talkeetna hit 96. I'm told that the mosquitoes are growing
bigger and better this summer than ever before.

 JW> -4- hot tubs

Understandable - the only purpose of these appliances
seems to be the seduction of the young and stupid.

 JW> -2- small pianos
 JW> -1- large pianos.

Pity that - I'm guessing that these instruments, at least the
manufacture thereof, may become extinct in the not so far future.
Part of it is the opprobrium that the LCD has attached to all
cultural and intellectual enterprise; and the fact that music
does not offer obvious and tangible reward is a big nonmotivator;
and the deciding factor might be that pianos, even small ones,
are a millstone - a big pain to keep in tune, learn to play, move
around, and so on. It'll be a long time before the wind blows
back in the other direction.

Sardines on bread fingers
categories: snack, starter, something fishy
servings: 12

2 cn boneless skinless sardines
4 sl white bread (thin)
lemon juice
chopped parsley

Remove the bread crusts and cut each slice in thirds.
Toast if desired. Place sardines, whole or split lengthwise
in half, on the fingers. Squeeze lemon juice sparingly over
and sprinkle with parsley.

You may toast the fingers if you like. But the great pianist
Artur Rubenstein swears that nothing is as good as sardines
on plain untoasted fingers of bread, the oil soaking into
the soft white bread.
