Janet US, get used to the fact that we are NOT the only country on this
planet. Learn other terms. Or did you really intend OZ to rename
Damper (a bread product) to something else to suit you?

Sheldon, you've never mentioned making *any* kind of stock. Why do you
think anyone would believe you on this one??

Hint: Fish do not do that.

You're very forgetful. I've mentioned seafood dishes and recipes many
times here. Filleted fish broiled with onion and lemon, several crab
recipes, pan seared fresh caught tuna (caught by my daughter), fried or
steamed clams, fried or steamed oysters, and homemade clear clam
chowder. Also a good shrimp boil recipe.

I don't remember seeing any seafood recipes from you. Anyway so why
does seafood stock seem so difficult to you... a lot easier than other
meatstocks and costs practically nothing... simply walk down to the
shore and cast for free fishies.

I'm so glad you looked up what damper is in both countries. I've
known for decades.

Agreed! Carol drops in occasionally and tries to play catch-up without
having read much of the earlier posts (lots of snippage doesn't help).
You never once suggested another country should rename what they call
bread just because you're in the US. You did suggest other people also
recognize differences in terms because of language differences due to
where everyone is located. I'm pretty sure most of us realize this is
not a US/North American ng by any means. But we're all speaking
English, and there are so many different meanings for the same word...
might help to clarify which damper? Or it could just be a fun bit of
thread drift. We were talking about fish sauce at one point.

Hush yo mouf ho. Popeye knows all. He's the font of all knowledge.

Yoose just need to believe in him, sort of like believing in

If there was a secretary of cooking, any president would certainly
appoint Popeye.

Well, I have and that one is 'lighter' than what I had. It's a basic
soda bread with minimal rise.

It's a large, simple, biscuit baked in a primitive way - not that there's anything wrong with that. Well, excepting maybe that your country has been nuked and you've got a hankering for bread - any kind of bread in the worst way!
To the Brits, a damper is what the Americans call a "shock absorbed" in a car.
To the Americans, "damper" is what you call a pile of clothes that is not as dry as another pile of clothes.

Here too, except "shock absorber" is too long for Australians, so
that's a "shocky".

The absence of any kind of textual clue forces me to assume you're not making a joke.

No, to Americans a damper is part of a fireplace flue that prevents cold
air from coming down the chimney when a fire is not lit.

That's some classic ASD right there. I am indeed making a joke but what I say is also true. What do you call clothes that are a little more damp than some other clothes? Wetter? Of course you do.

The 9000 series is the most reliable computer ever made. No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error.

That film and "Eyes wide shut" confirmed, to me at least, that Kubrick
was over-rated. "EWS" also confirmed that Tom Cruise couldn't act his

I find him really uneven. I forgive him all his missteps on the basis of:

Dr. Strangelove
A Clockwork Orange
Full Metal Jacket

You must not have watched very many Tom Cruise movies prior to
that. Any time he's not basically playing himself, he's just embarrassing.

I saw it when it came out too. I didn't spend nothing because my mom took me to see it. I can't say if she took me to it because she wanted to see it or if she wanted me to see it. We did not discuss the movie afterwards but I sure wish I got to spend more time with her these days.

I've only seen him in 2 movies: Rain Man and EWS. If one of his movies
