So sue them.
Bullets kill people (not the rifle they are fired from), so sue the makers
of bullets.

Jeff taught young boys to keep their back to the wall!

Justin taught how to laugh at cajun yokels. BTW, if you would still like to
see the ol' lush, he's on Sat morns on RFD, the hillbilly network.

Graham Kerr taught how to get hammered on tv and get paid for it.

Martin Yan taught round eyes what they'd always suspected, that all
Chinese dishes are exactly alike.

Rick Bayless taught you CAN screw ingnorant Americans all of the time.

The Grand Dam of cooking! She taught us not to be afraid in the
kitchen. She demonstrated that we're human and it's human to make
mistakes.

He was a very important part of my cooking growth. He took cooking
back home, then he introduced us to the culinary roots of our home
cooking.

YES, what a character!

The Galloping Gourmet (Graham Kerr) made it fun to cook. I learned as
much (or *more*) from his shows as I did from Julia Child. In order
of importance for me, it's Julia, Graham, Jeff.... all the others are
just window dressing. I got inspiration or more likely entertainment
by watching, but I didn't go out and make their recipes as much as I
did the top three.

Oh, Lidia and Giadia are inspiring me now. If I was just learning how
to cook, they might turn out to be my icons later in life.

i think in the u.s., irma and marion are unquestionably on top in
terms of influence. they've got readers of three generations who then
went out and did likewise.

As someone that had an office
down-the-hall-and-around-the-corner from the coffee station
(complete with a single Sharp's "Officemate" .9³Ft m/w), I am
_well aware_ of just how many cannot... We'd both be rich
beyond our nightmarish dreams of avarice and greed upon seeing
Solomon's Mines.

But that's not the point!

Did the rope scratch?

LOL! I didn't know he was drunk until way after when he admitted it.
I was naive enough to think he was just having a good time cooking.

In any case, he was better at cooking and entertaining drunk than most
sober FTV "stars" are now.

Depends on just how you mean that. Most of the things I saw J Child make I wouldn't
have used to slop hogs (well maybe I would, that being all it was fit for ). But many
if not most of the things I saw Justin wilson make I would have liked and actually
made a few.

The most overrated cuisine in the world is French, and I don't care what you say,
Escarcot ain't nothin' but a hardtop slug.
