Hi. Would anyone like to tell me about the posting protocol around
here? Some NGs have a FAQ and some don't, so I thought I'd ask.

Thanks for the link. I had a look at it, and it contains a wealth of
useful basic information--certainly too much to digest all at once (no
pun intended). I'll be going back to it from time to time.

BTW, my news server doesn't contain an NG dedicated to discussion of TV
cooking shows such as those available in my city on The Food Network.
Is anyone here at all interested in those?

I don't know of a NG dedicated to TV cooking shows, however, there are
sporadic threads here on rfc about various chef personalities from The Food
Network. Since my cable system doesn't carry The Food Network, I don't
participate much in these discussion, except on the occasions when I trash
Emeril. Regardless of his success, fame, or wealth, I think he's a
complete ass. There are a few here who share my view, although others do
not.

I wish there were a ng dedicated to TV cooking shows but alas there is none
that I know of. I think it's fun to dish about the shows and the hosts. I
have some favorites that have changed. I didn't use to like Giada because I
felt she was too 'skinny' to even have tasted her dishes for salt. But now
I think I've seen almost all of her programs. One I just saw lately, she
was in Rome, and since her famous grandfather, De Laurentis, was Italian,
and she speaks many words in the Italian dialect, I assumed she was a
traveler across the seas many times over. But I recall her saying on that
program that she had never been to Rome. Perhaps I've become a fan if I can
recall silly little things like this.

I saw that show. She lived in Rome as a girl.
I distinctly remember her saying coming to Rome was like "coming home".

Hey, can you make REAL barbecue from beef? Or is pork the definitive
barbecue meat? And how about AUTHENTIC barbecue sauce; what are its
essential characteristics and ingredients?

How sweet should cornbread be? How sweet should iced tea be?

What is a REAL hot dog?

Also, I've got this great recipe which starts out by boiling the ribs...

This is a public news group. You don't need an invitation
to join and you don't even have to read the FAQ. The only
thing you need to observe is the basics of how to post on
news groups w/o p*ssing off the "regulars".

If you can do that, welcome!

If you can't do that - welcome to our killfiles.

Me neither. Lady, ya gotta try harder. You're not being true to yourself
unless SOMEONE hates you. I actually learned that in church, during one of
the sermons.
