I have the 1975 edition of Joy of Cooking, and it's old school, taking one from boiling water to complex recipes. In the 1997 edition, they "dumbed it down" because they didn't think modern cooks would take the time and care of previous generations.…

If you order in the next 15 minutes, we'll thrown in this roll of clear plastic, suitable for covering maps while you play, *at no additional charge*! Operators are standing by!

Even if you are not much of a baker I encourage you to make this pie. It will be the best one you have ever tasted. It is from the 1950 edition Betty Crocker cookbook.

One 9 inch unbaked pie shell (store bought or home made)

In the pie shell put 4 cups washed fresh blueberries * (See note below)

In a medium bowl wisk together:

2/3 cup granualted sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup heavy whipping cream

Pour the cream mixture over the berries and bake… Continue

Oh somebody PLEASE bury MJ, ok??

Ok Consm folks out there: Who else is tired of hearing about Michael Jackson besides Jim Werbaneth and me? Was he talented? Yes. Was he on par with the greats in the music industry? No. He liked to be in the company of young boys and he should have been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law regarding the child molestation cases. I just hope to hell no one tries to nominate this freak for sainthood.

I would probably freeze to death - literally! (I don't have a thyroid, so I don't generate much body heat with a low metabolic rate.) My Mom has been and said it was wonderful. I just get to look at the pictures...

Hi Katie! I hope you are doing well and remembering take care of YOURSELF while you are taking care of your family. Best wishes to your dad in his recovery, too.

You are invited to join us at WBC anytime--we even have a few all-female teams you could join, just for fun :D We don't offer Oregon Trail, but we have lots of other games you might like.

Hi Katie,

HOB is a Mark Walker game, not main :-), hope Smitty enjoy that great game!

Not sure how I added the music. It's been a while since I put that widget there, and once you have the widget, you can add songs whenever you want.

Thank you very much young miss, for making me your friend. I see that you are married to a wargamer. Don't give up, life is worth living.

I will be there. Booth 333. (Just a little devil!) :)

I've recently printed and built "To the Last Man." I was able to play the game and get an idea of its look and feel beforehand thanks to BGG and Cyberboard. It's an excellent game, one well worth the bother. I _hope_ it is just by unfortunate accid…

Yes, this was a creepy ad. I looked at the Audi website to compare this car to others. Oddly enough, you are unable to compare it to the VW SportWagon TDI, which gets exactly the same mileage.

Lately, I've been mad at Newsweek, due to issues of bias that are beyond the realm of this group.  However, tonight I read a very good article on its web site, regarding layoffs.I was once in a meeting at a former employer, and we were going over th…

I'd love to see more open source work, but I'm especially thinking of computer games. That would allow not just designers, but the developers, to look "under the hood" to see what makes a good game work. Even if that education is taken to commercial…

I haven't seen much in the way of Napoleonic games as of late, and I think the COA system always lagged a bit because the rules changed quite a bit and there have been lots of questions surrounding a new, more playable system. I think if someone can…

What I think will be coolest about the concept is the use of touch displays to pick up and move counters, etc. and swipe the display with a finger to quickly scroll and view the map. All this while having a live chat window or audio option to talk t…

I just finished Pat Frank's 'Alas Babylon'. Interesting novel with mention of the old Grumman F-11F Tigers, B-47s, B-58s and more. A worthwhile read.

Stephen, I love all these game systems too. I will say I think OCS is the "holy grail" of operational-level simulation--with the stipulation that I rarely have time/space to play even one of the more simple titles (e.g., KOREA: THE FORGOTTEN WAR or…

Will wargaming migrate from Desktop Publishing (DTP) to true Freeware/Open Source designs? We see this with VALOR & VICTORY, a squad-level WWII tactical ground combat system that's been out on the internet since 2008. I have no idea how many people…
