It's happening, precision GPS is coming to the airline biz,
bye-bye omnis, FAA jobs, whatever.

My daughter and her husband farm about 2,200 acres of corn and beans in western
Minnesota. Their combines, fertilizer spreaders, planters, etc., are all GPS
equipped. As the crop is harvested the combine keeps a yield-vs-GPS-location as
it passes across the field. Next spring that data is networked to the
fertilizer and planting rigs who compare it to last years settings and their
rates are adjusted on-the-fly to optimize the yield down to a 2-meter
resolution. Interesting that some idiots here had the loopy idea to turn that
system off once in awhile just for grins --- military weapons system and all
that, doncha know!

Neat! KF2TI just tossed out those realities in detail, he thee and me
have it right. Imagine what the red/blue map would look like after the
a presidential election if any incumbent candidate CIC had screwed
around with our breadbasket.

it simple with a
hearty main course such as stew, lasagna, or meat loaf.

Some suggestions

Pre-mie pot pies, beef stew, leg of lamb, stuffed chicken, roast pork spiral ham,
Cranberry pineapple salad, sweet potatoes in butter, vegetable platter, tossed salad with tomato and avocado, parsley new potatoes, spinich cucumber salad, fruit salad
Bran muffins, dinner rolls, soft breadsticks, rice pilaf, croissants
Apple cake with rum sauce, frosted banana nut bread sherbet, home made brownies
Iced tea, water, beer, bloody marys, lemonade, coffee

The guests select food, beverages, silverware... everything from the buffet table.
They move to wherever they are comfortable, and sit with whoever they choose.
Provide trays so your guests will not spill everything all over your house from
carrying too much, nor will they have to make 10 trips back and fourth from the
service stations.



Roast Leg of Amputee

By all means, substitute lamb or a good beef roast if the haunch
it is in any way diseased. But sometimes surgeons make mistakes,
and if a healthy young limb is at hand, then don?t hesitate to cook
it to perfection!

1 high quality limb, rack, or roast
Potatoes, carrot
Oil
celery
