It's Ross "The Ripper"!

Very often, a post collects quite a bit of off-topic info and even chit-chat or "chatter". When this happens, a moderator splits the conversation, leaving the original topic in place, yet splitting off the chatter to a more suitable forum such as Hyde Park. It may be put in an existing topic or even a completely new one with a new name. At one time, we had a topic in the Hyde Park forum called "sticky-chat". It was sort of a catch-all for split-off chatter from other posts. It was also a great place to post general chit-chat. I`ve resurrected the old topic here.

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon

I just got a solisitation for selling maintainance insurance for my car. It is an 87 volvo with almost 300,000 miles on it. I want life insurance for it. Then when it dies I can replace it.

Ross,
Just get a horse! You don't have to buy gasoline and it will mow your lawn at night.

Shucks ol' pard, he'll even fertilize your flowers for you! Now that's eco-friendly!

Naw, I'm my horse's doctor but not a "horse doctor".

Ross could also hitch the horse to his Volvo when the engine dies or the transmission goes out.

Win-win situation, no more need for a mechanic then.

Ross,
Just tell them to go an jump. I have seen this crap before and if you have a claim they try and find any way of getting out of paying. That's just the short version, all insurance companies are the same. I can elaborate but won't.
Stick to your serviceman you know well.
Regards,
Jan.

He has been keeping it going for at least fifteen years.

Yeah, and my horse has 300,000 miles on him and he isn't even fully broke-in yet! He's got a long way to go! I don't even have to change his oil and he never pops a fan belt or has a flat tire! Just a little water in his radiator and he's good to go. Once in a while I do detect a little exhaust though.

I be danged iffn I know how you dreged this thread up but for making broth I have a story for you. Three maybe four years ago I was the designated turkey roaster for a family get together. I had the turkey but didn't have enough stock to make the amount of gravy we would need.
On my way home from a house repair job and kinda a little worse lookin for the wear, I stopped at a supermarket for a half dozen turkey wings to cook to make additional stock.
Now I don't wear my nice clothes for some jobs and this was one that could well have sent the coat to the dump but it didn't. Anyway I made my way to the check out and this pretty young clerk asked if that was what I was having for thanksgiving. I assured her that I was just getting them for stock but she wasn't sure and I had to tell her again that I wouldn't go hungry for thanksgiving day. She still had her doubts until I laid a fifty dollar bill in her hand.

Ross, was that one of those fifties that you make in your basement at night?

ssorllih · Post by **ssorllih** » Mon Jan 02, 2012 05:33

No. That was one I made in somebody else's basement.

This was the thread where everything went backwards, from "RongWay" to "abbuB".

Ross,
was this the topic you were looking for, de-boning a Turkey and making stock?

"Sigh" I love bolonga but if I made that much I would either have to give it away or freeze it. I enjoy so much variety in my food that I freeze roasts in one or two pound portions and chicken legs just two in a package. I split whole chickens and get three meals from one half.
That bolonga looks perfect. I bet stuffed into small casing it would be grand as hot dogs.
