 -> It's amazing what one can do with a single element hot-plate and some
 -> imagination. Sammy Zito (brother to Frank and Tony of Appalachin FBI
 -> "fame"), a retired coal miner, lived in my friend Dennis' mother's flop
 -> house in downtown Springfield. He would trap pigeons on the roof and
 -> make all manner of hot Italianesque things with their carcasses - using
 -> a single element hot plate and a few old tin pots. Sort of a localised
 -> Urban Peasant.

 SR> Folks in other parts of the world manage with one pot and a wood fire.
 SR> Sometimes you just have to do with what you've got.

Or just a sharpened stick - which serves as a spear and a spit to cook what you
killed with the spear.
 
 -> I asked Sammy once, "Why don't you let Frank set you up in a nice little
 -> house?"

 -> And he told me, "They my brothers. But, they are crooks. I don't take
 -> nothing from them. I sleep good at night!"

 SR> And he kept the pigeon population under control.

Well, he did what he could. But those flying rats are fast breeders.
 
 SR> The truly required piece in that situation was of course the coffee
 SR> maker.

Actually the coffee maker was "putting on the dog". A hot plate to boil water
for tea or instant coffee would have got me by.   Bv)=

 -> with sink on left or right.

 SR> I've seen those before. It's been a while though.

They are very popular with "extended stay" motels. The last one I actually used
was at the Extended  Stay America in Danvers, MA - during one of the picnics.
