Sure you can join in! The pot is on the table. As my raise wasn't matched, I win and you can take my seat on the next deal. I have a puzzle (yes, I know this word has sexual connotations Bubba Vic) to work on.

OK, we don't know what Victor meant - but we can guess....
From mw: Icon - a usually pictorial representation Iconoclast - one who destroys religious IMAGES or opposes their veneration Flyblown - to deposit eggs or young larvae of a flesh fly or blowfly in
What happens when flies deposit their eggs on flesh? Ask any biologist or coroner... it decomposes. IOW: it's destroyed.
IMO: Flyblown seems like a "homie" way of saying what Iconoclast means - destroy the image.
How Victor came up with it (if that's what he meant), I won't know unless he tells us. Maybe he was a science geek in his younger days.

Hah! I think you might be reading into this much more than there is actually there. It is fairly straightforward - icons (actual, not metaphorical) often tend to be covered with fly-blows, as they get cleaned only rarely, if at all. :-)

Wall She Hit! I was indeed looking too deep. I should have been more orthodox in my approach.

IOW: covered with fly s**t? OGAWD! LOL! Is that a picture worth remembering?

Hi--
Here in Houston many of the grocery chains are offering beef brisket at 49 cents a pound for the holiday weekend (U.S. July 4th/Independence Day) barbecues. I'm not particularly fond of barbecued brisket myself, and it's too hot for oven-braising; anybody have any ideas for this cut?
Regards,
Susan Edkins
it makes great top-of-stove pot roast. 8 oz. beer 6 oz. can pineapple juice 1 tb brown sugar 1 tb worcesteshire or kung pao sauce 1 tb teriaki sauce 1 tb lemon j. or (rice) vinegar 1 bay leaf 1-1 1/2 beef brisket (or thick round or chuck) 1/2 -3/4 head green cabbage cut in wedges
combine and heat liquid ingredients. add brown sugar and bay leaf. (the brown sugar makes it fizz entertainingly.) when at simmer, add beef and simmer, covered, on very low heat for about 3 hours, turning every 15 minutes or so. (don't worry if it smells kinda funky at first- it's the beer.) (i do not bother to brown the beef, but knock yourself out.)
add cabbage wedges during last 15 minutes or so. the meat should be very tender yet still a little pink inside. i usually serve it in chunks, shred it on the plate and spoon some of the gravy over (it will not be thick). i sprinkle some salt and grind some pepper on the meat, wrap a bite in a cabbage leaf, and go to town.
this is a very forgiving recipe; as long as you cook it slow and long you can't really go wrong.
(mostly invented by me - well, o.k., mostly stolen by me from different people.)
your pal, blake
Thanks Blake--
Brisket might not be as cheap as it was in June, but it's a bit chilly now (by Houston terms) and this sounds great.
