Degree of opportunity perhaps?? I'm sure I could have done at least a
*few* more things I should not have, given the status and opportunity. And
a few more good things as well.

So your most strenuous objection is to the "audience" rather than the
central characters? That's the way I feel about Emeril Live.

ObFood: Lin made Hubert Keller's roast chicken with sage, rosemary,
parsnips, garlic, and fennel. WOW! It turned out very, very well. The recipe
can be seen at http://www.hubertkeller.com/recipes/207_2.pdf, but it's
missing a step which was shown on the TV program: Just before serving, the
recipe tells you to stick rosemary sprigs into the top of the chicken. On
TV, Keller set the rosemary on fire and said that you're supposed to carry
the flame-topped chicken through the dining room to the table for serving.

Thats why whatever I thought when they were alive doesn't change when
they die. The bad stuff just doesn't go away where they should suddenly
be thought of in the same light as say Mother Teresa.

If not for the Kennedy Clan Maffia (all of them) no deal would have been cut
with Kruschev, there would have been no cold war, Fidel Castro and his
henchmen would have been gone, and Cuba would have been a US Territory and
probably a State for nearly 50 years.

You 'people' should take note of a saying..........

"If you can't say something good about someone who has passed, shut the
**** up and say nothing at all."

To do otherwise shows exactly what cowardly, low life, and despicable
'humans' you are in real life.

Idiot! Do you really think folks should raise Charles Manson to sainthood
when he finally drops dead? The Kennedys were *always* thieving, lying,
murderous douchebags.

Whiskey micks who constantly strove to be lace curtain Irish but they simply
could not make the grade...

They SURE did affect a LOT of peep's lives - for the worse...!!!

All the while wrapping themselves in pious foney - baloney Catholicism...old
matriach crone Rose was THE WORST.

Last night on some cable nooze channel there was a docu about the Kennedy
clan, it was all that "Camelot" bullshit and at the end of the show they
played _Danny Boy_...had to turn it off before I hurled.
