@Lady-DebianLinux The main thing with venison is to get it cut uniformly.....our first deer was cut up in the basement with friends & hacksaws...all of it almost inedible unless stewed, because of the uneven thickness. We took them to a local butcher shop after that (organs, hide & hoofs removed, rinsed & delivered at closing as per health laws) and for about $30 got professionally cut & wrapped meat. Once you have your chops, tenderloin, stewmeat, ground meat (with added fat, either pork, beef, or a combo) you can cook it just like beef, whichever type of cut it resembles,, Only, ever, to Medium Rare!

@FearlessFly Do these drivers know before they sign up what the contract is? Dothey have the choice to work elsewhere, even perhaps at a completely different job? Free choice! fBTW, if i had to call a ride, I would prefer a cab company where someone has actually vetted them (especially because they are using a company car!) & is in constant contact with the company-owned vehicle. Otherwise, IMO you are merely getting into a car with a stranger, and we all know what Mom said about that! Also, re disability: in the years after my stroke i interacted with a lot of cabbies....those that helped with my packages got well-tipped. Those that did not, didn't, and got told why.

Viruses are full of "will to spread"! Most of us cannot/will not be vigilant 100% 24/7/365. So staying away from crowds, (surfaces! and airborne!) especially indoors, and wearing a mask can all help a lot. The life you save may be your Mom's, or your child's, sometimes it is about more than You. Oh, and No shoes, no shirt, no mask, no service...what's the biggie? Of all the people who should be rising up with pitchforks, the store workers who Have to touch the stuff you breathed on/touched should be the angriest, I am angry for them!

Trump jokes he might leave country if he loses to Joe Biden in Nov. 3 election

BestWithoutGods comments on Oct 17, 2020:

If the Chump wants to see the worst candidate ever, all he needs to do is look in a mirror. I will enjoy my stay in the USA if Biden gets elected. If the Chump is re-elected, I may have to spend the next four years at my condo in Italy.

I wanted to watch Biden speak last night.

AnneWimsey replies on Oct 16, 2020:

His statement that masks Increase Covid infection by 85% springs to mind, and the low sound of disbelief & anger from the audience (which must have had some fans in it, but it was startlingly false even for him)

Listen to Actual experts, make equipment available where/as needed regardless of if the state is "red" or "blue", encourage wearing masks instead of actively discouraging it, getting out Actual statistics, not outright lies, working with other countries so info gets where it needs to go about treatments, effects, etc(again, Facts) stop throwing money at companies that have never worked in the vaccine field, that just happen to be owned by cronies......

There could be leadership that listens to, and implements, medical advice from Recognized authorities & agencies, get medical supplies to where they are needed (not whether the state is red or blue!) And, oh, I dunno, encourages people to wear masks... (Or, like here in CT, requires them). Stuff you are not getting now, for sure......

AnneWimsey replies on Oct 13, 2020:

We had a farm when I was a kid & people constantly dropped off cats (way before "spay & neuter" was a thing). Most lived outdoors around the barns & pens, but one special fluffy one was my mom's favorite with a name even. Once I was admiring her latest litter (about age 6) & the next thing she was hanging off my face with her claws....i will never forget the sensation of her belly fur against my nose. I have disliked cats ever since. Your are Correct, keep your kids safe!
