It was an Austrian beer in a 550ml can-- it was a paler beer with a very pleasant flavor

Huh?? Is that the name of a pub ??

[Kontiki]

Yeah, it's a small chain of pubs (I think they're still around) in Vancouver. Not sure if they're in Calgary as well. They always had that "Around the World in 80 Beers" thing (hence the "Fogg" in Fogg n' Suds).

Nope-- That might be part of where the idea came from but this is just a small local pub that happens to carry a very good selection of beer

Steak

Che, steak ain't that expensive... just don't expect the good stuff . Buy a small steak, grill it up in your Foreman Grill (you DO have one of those, right?). Have couscous as a side .

Life is too short to eat nasty steak, Imran. Nor do I have a Forman grill. I broil my steaks, unless their chuck steaks, in which case they get braised in my braissier.

I just discovered a big chunk of beef in my freezer though, that I had forgotten about. It needs serious braising though. I wonder if I could use lemonade.

You don't have a Foreman Grill .

What kind of poor person are you?

[chequita guevara]

Why would I want a Foreman Grill? Fat is what makes meat taste good. I always buy the cheapest ground beef, cuz it usually has a fat content of 30%, which means a super juicy burger.

Also, a friend of mine has one and told me it was difficult to clean, so I didn't bother (I was going to get one).

I have a Foreman grill. Can't stand the thing - food off it is bland and dry.

[chequita guevara]

Plus I have too many appliances as it is, and no where to put them all.

Speaking of appliaces, I highly recommend Red Diaper Baby.

We start in primative communalism. Primiative communalism is like everyone's at a Greatful Dead concernt, everyone's dancing.

Then we move to slavery . . . that must have been a bummer of a transition. Then to feudalism

Then we STOP at capitalism. We stop at capitalism, because capitalism is where we get all our appliances.

Then on to socialism, and finally communism, and it's back to the Greatful Dead concert.

Pah! The Foreman Grill is the poor man's oven. Not that hard to clean, actually, and easy to get up and hot.

[chequita guevara]

I have an oven. What do I need a poor man's oven for?

You should be able to buy a little Hibachi grill cheap. Charcoal grilling will make even a cheap steak taste good.
