Due to epiphany 6,003.5 I no longer have that opinion. Sorry, Mike.:)

No apology necessary - it takes a big man to change his opinion publicly. And one who has an open mind.

Learning is the reason I hang around. Lord knows I need the help.

Thanks. I love this site. I learn so much. Oh, sure I eat a lot of crow, but I learn the stuff that opens my ability to see how things tick and how other people use their logic to solve problems. I then am able to go out and disseminate this newly-found info to others who are less fortunate in some sense. It just works great.

I have edited out my entire text due to an epiphany. I realize now that a SABC receptacle can also be switched...just not as a lighting outlet. Duh!

There seems to be a great urgency from some of the more vocal on this site when they believe they're correct, to admonish others, not to teach, but to admonish. As far as I am concerned all the insulting only serves to skirt the very edges of relevance.
But, regardless, don't give up on me...I'm learning. Edited due to a rare condition called "understanding".:smile:

Not in particular. I started out to disagree with you, and had to erase most of it since I ended up agreeing with you, so I just stayed on your post to deliver my dissertation. Not trying to single you out...just looked that way. My bad. Sorry. But maybe someday.....:grin:
 
It's all good ... I added some smiley guys I forgot to in the first place ,. I'm not in the least upset ..this forum , while not perfect,.. is a great place to make and meet challenges of the mind.

Now where is Ipelectric:smile:

After being fed crow by Don and a number of others here I found cooking it Cajun style works well. Enough spice and blackening you can pretend it's chicken. :cool:
 
anyone game?

anyone game?

CROW HASH

4 or 5 crows
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can chicken broth
1/4 c. butter
Salt & Pepper to taste
Juice from 1/2 lemon
8-12 oz. sliced mushrooms
Flour
1 bay leaf
Rice or toast

THE MARINADE:

1 pt. vinegar
1 pt. water
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper

Skin the crows. Cut away any fat. Cut bird in half. Mix marinade. Pour over crow in glass container for 24 hours in refrigerator. Discard marinade. Boil crow in a pot with water, 1 bay leaf. Remove meat from bone, slicing it against the grain. In a large fry pan heat butter, mushrooms and add chicken broth, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 20 minutes. Thicken with flour. Serve over rice or toast. Serves 4.
 
You'd be hard pressed to eat crow around here anymore. My neighborhood used to be overrun by them - big, nasty, aggressive crows that would dive-bomb cats and make all kinds of noise. When I'd leave the house in the morning, my neighbor's roof ridges would often be covered with them.

Since the West Nile Virus, I seldom see one. I kinda miss the big noisy things.

I hate to ask this but how did the term "Eat Crow" come along?

I don't know but the term promotes eating birds and you know "Crow Americans" are probably offended.
 
No one really knows I guess

The origin of "to eat crow" is ultimately unknown. Almost all authorities cite an incident that took place during a truce in the war of 1812. The story goes that an unarmed British officer encountered an American hunter near the Niagra River, gained control of his musket and thereby forced him to eat the crow he had just shot. The American complied, but when his musket was returned, forced the British officer to do the same.

The first recorded "in context" citation (where "eating crow" is associated with humiliation) occurred 1877, where it is "to eat boiled crow".

"Crow McGee", meaning the opposite of the "real McCoy", did not appear until the 20th century and its relationship to "eating crow" cannot be established.

I hope someone does not complain and we have to stop using the term "Eat Crow"...
