Hi. Would anyone like to tell me about the posting protocol around
here? Some NGs have a FAQ and some don't, so I thought I'd ask.

Thank you. I'll do my best.

Thanks for the link. I had a look at it, and it contains a wealth of
useful basic information--certainly too much to digest all at once (no
pun intended). I'll be going back to it from time to time.

BTW, my news server doesn't contain an NG dedicated to discussion of TV
cooking shows such as those available in my city on The Food Network.
Is anyone here at all interested in those?

I don't know of a NG dedicated to TV cooking shows, however, there are
sporadic threads here on rfc about various chef personalities from The Food
Network. Since my cable system doesn't carry The Food Network, I don't
participate much in these discussion, except on the occasions when I trash
Emeril. Regardless of his success, fame, or wealth, I think he's a
complete ass. There are a few here who share my view, although others do
not.

This is a public news group. You don't need an invitation
to join and you don't even have to read the FAQ. The only
thing you need to observe is the basics of how to post on
news groups w/o p*ssing off the "regulars".

If you can do that, welcome!

If you can't do that - welcome to our killfiles.

I wish there were a ng dedicated to TV cooking shows but alas there is none
that I know of. I think it's fun to dish about the shows and the hosts. I
have some favorites that have changed. I didn't use to like Giada because I
felt she was too 'skinny' to even have tasted her dishes for salt. But now
I think I've seen almost all of her programs. One I just saw lately, she
was in Rome, and since her famous grandfather, De Laurentis, was Italian,
and she speaks many words in the Italian dialect, I assumed she was a
traveler across the seas many times over. But I recall her saying on that
program that she had never been to Rome. Perhaps I've become a fan if I can
recall silly little things like this.

There is a FAQ file - a pointer to it is posted regularly by Victor
Sack. He hides it here: <http://vsack.bei.t-online.de/rfc_faq.html>.

Beyond that, for starters you can send the $100 joining fee and first
month's $35 membership fee to me. I'll see that it gets to the
treasurer of The Cabal (TINC).

Top-posting is frowned on here and some people do it anyway.
Personally, I've a tendency to post replies within the post to which I
am replying, snipping judiciously when possible. Snipping posts for
brevity is a good thing.

We're an odd bunch - especially the Bobs. I'm probably the most normal
(and cutest) person who posts regularly. Margaret Suran is probably the
most gracious and civil person, which is remarkable when you consider
how much she drinks. Victor's probably more intellectual than most,
which is surprising when you consider that he doesn't know the proper
shape for pirohy and likes some weird beet jelly that he gets shipped to
him from the US. Sheldon has terrible potty fingers and you should
know right now that you will never change his behavior so if you don't
like it, learn to ignore his vituperation. Terry Pulliam Burd is
funnier than most people I know. Dimitri Criona is a gentleman, but
don't [censored] him off. Carol (Damsel who used to be In Dis Dress) is a
trollop. Nancy Young has a good recipe for meatballs and grape jelly.
The best troll hasn't been around for a while. The Canadians are kind
of hinky.

Where do you live, what time does the party start, and is clothing
optional? It's less than 6 months until my birthday, too. It's never
to early to shop.

I saw that show. She lived in Rome as a girl.
I distinctly remember her saying coming to Rome was like "coming home".

Let me get this straight. There is a GOOD recipe for meatballs
and grape jelly, not to mention the chili sauce??!

That will be the day.

Ever wonder about those people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little

Aw, jeez! Did I do it again? I thought choking the chicken had to do
with a farm bird, too. How'd I get to be so innocent with 5 older
brothers? We didn't talk about such things, that's how!

I didn't hear that part at all, maybe because I didn't watch the whole show.
Someday when I watch it again, I'll be sure to tune a ear to that part.
