YAh but what's that got to do with it ;)
It's better than a wheat cracker tho'!
Fruit is good.
So are too many other things...
((I will never be skinny again...))
Yup, it's a *good* idea to have those bathroom doors be nice and wide ;)
Speaknig of which, what's up with these teensy little closets for toilets? They're hardly wide enough to use the dang toilet paper. Where'd that silly idea come from?
I've been hunting the time lines for some years now. Me and a cricket bat.

And I'm sure there are a heck of a lot of handicapped folks right behind you. Not to mention people who aren't fat but just *big*. Not everyone is

The *concept* is OK (having the john in a separate area with its own ventiliation). But the executuion of the concept is always horrible. THey are *always* way too naoorow, and few seem to have adequate ventiliation (well, bathrooms in general never have adequate fans, so I'm not surprised if the closet doesn't even have a fan at all, never mind a window).
There is also that problem (depth).
Bathroom fans never work. They claim something like 100 - 300 CFM but I really don't believe thay pull that much at all. GOtta have a great huge mahala fan, something that'd clear out the steam bath (a.k.a. shower) in 5 miniuits, 10 max. Anything less is absurd.
(yes, I'm parnoid about mold, very allergic >:p )
yeeg, ya don't hafta spell it out =8-@
Sounds like *great* chili tho'

I like all sorts of chili variants. Esp. using chunks of tomato, whole corn kernels, black beans, various peppers hot and not, and so on. Almost like "chili meets salsa". I eat it with tortilla chips, or these tostados, I think htey're called, yellopw corn and jalapeno. And extra sharp cheddar.
Not at all authentic Mexican, jsut what I like.
Oh, and cold beer, of course ;) .
Are you serious.....?
It's be a great idea, tho' - an auto-stirer. In laboratories, they stir stuff by putting in a non-reactve-plastic-coated metal bar, and setting the flask on a hotplate with a spinning magnet under it.
But chili is way too thick for that to work. So something mechanical would have to do the job.
Oh great, like I need *ANOTHER* weird Rube Goldberg idea (in addition to my own) running around in my head (and giggling insanely)... =8-O
I think the first one I ever ran across (pity it wasn't in the 4x4) was in The Venitian hotel and resort casino in Las Vegas. There are no rooms, there are only suites (such that suite may mean room with more distance between the bed and the window that you are accustomed to ;-). Lots of marble. Big opulent bathroom. Something of an unexpected luxury the giant bathroom. Rather liked it. Had a nice long hot shower and a good soak in the tub; tried out the new laser range finder on the door... that kind of thing. Eventually I had to use the toidy... I'm pretty sure the closet it was stuffed into was 18"x2 wide. I think "frickin' bizarre" is appropriate. The contrast was stunning. But there's marble on the floor! But my big fuzzy bunny slippers completely cover it. But there's a phone on the wall! In case I get the munchies.
After using one of these refurbished flour canisters, it is time to reread "In Praise of Shadows" (Junichiro Tanizaki).
