• Fw: Dale Shipp has Passed

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to ALL on Tue Sep 17 08:06:00 2024
    FYI. Dale was also a long-time contributor in this echo before he left Fidonet a few months back.

    This message was from DAVE DRUM to ALL,
    originally in conference Cooking
    -------------------------
    I was told by e-mail from Bill Swisher that he found on Facebook a notice
    that our former moderator and host of many Echo Picnics had fallen from
    his twig. That is sad news indeed.

    That's sad! I liked Dale.

    That is sad news.
    It's no secret we never agreed politically, nonetheless I have enjoyed the back and forth of our political discourse. He will be missed.
    I will think of him whenever PUSU is used.
    Godspeed..

    Yes, even if you didn't agree with his opinion, you could usually have a reasonable conversation with him. He was a great person to have around in
    the COOKING echo, too.

    I was sad (and also concerned) when he abruptly announced
    he was taking his BBS down. I am sorry to hear he is gone.

    Yea, he kept it real. If you proved him wrong on a leftie point, he wasn't
    the kind of leftie who would still fight you on it. That's how they all should be.

    I remember talking with him in COOKING a little too. I think he sent me a bunch of recipes (or was that a different guy?)

    Yeah. It had to be real evidence and not just someone spouting an opinion,
    and I cannot blame him there.

    of recipes (or was that a different guy?)

    It could have been Dale. Also could have been one of several other participants, too. Dave Drum shares a lot of recipes.

    It's funny how people share a recipe with every reply they post. I never said this to anyone before, but I'm not gonna cook from a recipe that doesn't have photos. I just won't! :)

    That is sort of an unspoken rule in that echo, just like the moderator of
    the FUNNY echo prefers that you try to include a joke with your posts.

    I have cooked things that don't include photos but seeing a photo of
    something that looks delicious is certainly a motivator to try it
    myself! ;)

    Thanks for telling me about these things! That explains it. Things like that are part of what keeps Fidonet alive, kinda like the leftists and how they participate in the unspoken rule of defending all things Democrat. It's all good fun.

    Hello Everybody,

    The whole world ate cat in WWII. Not just cat, but also many other
    types of meat, including rat. And let's not talk about roadkill.

    I have cooked things that don't include photos but seeing a photo of something that looks delicious is certainly a motivator to try it
    myself! ;)

    Much has been said about Haitians in Springfield, Ohio for their
    delicious recipes, as noted by JD Vance. In fact, this dish is so
    popular that Donald Trump prmmoted their food in his debate with
    Kamala Harris.

    But how to you cook it? Neither Vance nor Trump told us how to
    prepare cat meat, thus denying the American people the opportunity
    to experience it for themselves.

    However, all is not lost. Food was scarce in Italy and Europe
    before and during WWII, and people had to do with what they had.
    Dogs were useful animals on a farm, and were thus usually exempt
    from having to be devoured. But cats were different. Since cats
    served no useful purpose to be of any help, something had to be
    done with them.

    Farmers had the perfect solution -

    * Prepare animal for cooking as one would for rabbit.

    * Marinate meat in olive oil, lemon juice, and favored seasoning
    for an hour.

    * Bake, grill or fry.

    For Life,
    Lee
