I *may* hook my groove tube to an antenna and a power source. Sometime. Maybe. 
For background - I have an 1800+ selection playlist for my WinAmp. And an 
Aluratec Internet Radio that also does FM, USB, Aux In, etc. The Aluratec is 
in the bedroom and serves as my white noise generator as well as an 
entertainment source when I am awake and aware.

So, are youin the millwright department or the IT help desk? I thought it was 
the latter - but, what you describe here sound more like millwright duties. Or 
have I grasped the mooky end of the stick again?

That can only be good for you. And less and less hassle as you get your body 
inured to it. Don't they let you zip about the facility in one of their nice 
Gator vehicles?

A job is something you do for money that you wouldn't do except for the money. 
What your dad wants is a position.  Bv)=

As long as you like cooking and eating there's probably not a lot of danger of 
pissing off your croaker.

Me, I'll settle for the 200# - 210# range. That's only 50 more pounds

      Title: "Nifty Fifties" Rice Pudding
 Categories: Rice, Dairy, Fruits, Desserts, Dairy
      Yield: 8 servings
 
    3/4 c  Raw long-grain rice
    1/4 ts Vanilla
      2 lg Eggs; slightly beaten
    1/8 ts Salt
  1 1/2 c  Milk
    1/2 c  Golden raisins (Sultanas)
  1 1/2 c  Heavy cream
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/3 c  Granulated white sugar
      2 ts Grated lemon peel
 	   +=OR=+				
      2 ts Grated orange peel
           Whipped cream (opt)
 
  This was the oldest standby in the resturant business.

  Prepare the rice in 1 1/2 cups of water according to
  package directions. Meanwhile heat the oven to
  350øF/175øC. Grease an 8" square baking dish. 

  In a large bowl combine the eggs, milk, cream, sugar,
  zest, vanilla, and salt beating until well blended. Stir
  the raisins into the rice and spoon the rice mixture into
  the prepared baking dish. 

  Pour the egg mixture over the rice and sprinkle with the
  cinnamon. Place the baking dish in the oven in a larger
  baking pan filled with enough hot water to come halfway up
  the sides of the baking dish. 

  Bake for 45 minutes until pudding is almost set, stirring
  once after 10 minutes and again 15 minutes later. Remove
  the baking dish from the larger pan and cool on a wire
  rack, cooling until cold. 

  Refrigerate, covered, at least 3 hours or overnight until
  the pudding is firm. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
