Microwave Brownies

FOOD

FIVE MINUTE CHOCOLATE YUMMERS We're loathe to make brownies because, you know.  So this is something I've been doing for several years to satisfy the chocolate cake urge without heating the oven and making a big pan full that we (I) eat in 24 hours.  In this instance I quartered the recipe on the box.  So,  about ¼ of the mix went into a bowl; then a splash of coffee, a pat of butter and one egg.  Oh, and a few walnuts.   Stir well and fill baking dishes, or one big dish. Microwave (I use the "Oatmeal" setting.)  Or just guesstimate; it's almost impossible to make something you won't eat.  The entire process takes 5 minutes.  Chocolate brownie urge satisfied.  You're welcome.

Or just Michelle taking a dip?

Jeremy Clarkson Does Guns

Tails of the Gun (Hot Linked)          Things That Changed the Wur—rreld Jeremy Clarkson—creator and erstwhile host of my favorite adventure show, Top Gear,  is my favorite talker.  I like him because we share a similar mistrust of  "Progressives;" we share a sense of humor; and he has a voice I can hear and understand without subtitles. Add to that this history of guns (he owns a Tommy Gun! In Britian!) and ... total vidgasm!

MSNBC MELTDOWN

MSNBC ALL-STARS

MSNBC meltdown: 'Media arm of DNC' in tailspin David Axelrod now works for MSNBC, which is a nice change of pace since MSNBC used to work for David Axelrod.”-  President Brock O. Bama Even MSNBC’s flagship, “The Rachel Maddow Show,” with a mere 145,000 viewers between 25 and 54, just experienced its worst quarter ever, and analysts say it is now essentially part of the leftist fringe. Other prime-time MSNBC shows are suffering a similar fate. The failure has become impossible to conceal, and even President Obama, whose agenda have been promoted non-stop on the channel, has been lovingly ridiculing his most faithful cheerleaders. “MSNBC is here. They’re a little overwhelmed,” Obama joked at last year’s White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner. “They’ve never seen an audience this big before.” The year before that, Obama comically hit on what numerous sources who spoke to WND have identified as one of MSNBC’s biggest problems. “Some of my former advisers have switched over to the dark side,” the president joked in 2013. “For example, David Axelrod now works for MSNBC, which is a nice change of pace since MSNBC used to work for David Axelrod.” MSNBC President Phil Griffin [described as a “hardcore leftist”], who in 2011 described the channel as “the place to go for progressives,” realizes there is a problem. [...] There is even talk of drastically scaling back MSNBC’s radical left-wing bias. [Full] Obama's recognition of his movement's "useful idiots" is ... useful.  And where are the GE stockholders, (MSNBC's  parent)?
