Try using a secondary PCI power connector, instead of the 1 cable which splits into 2 PCI 6 pin connectors.

Apologies to those who've seen it before. I need traffic!

Yeah well my arm is sore and my fingers blistered from putting 60 lbs. of quince through the food mill.

You will be awash in quince jelly! For years with 60 lbs of them.

What's good at Taco Bell?  There's one right down the street from me, and I haven't been there.

You can literally order anything off the menu and it will taste the same, so the real question is what packets of hot sauce to choose. They range from mild, think of it as the Keith Laney of hot sauces, to diablo sauce which is the RCH of sauces and made with habaneros.

[expat]

...diablo sauce which is the RCH of sauces and made with habaneros.

That's the one they call Dos Fuegos: One fire on the way in, a second on the way out.

So bummed they dropped the green sauce.  My Cheesy Gordita Crunch isn't the same without it.

Thanks Expat, I've always enjoyed your blogging on RCH.

Indeed. If Hoagland were a sauce, the flavor going in could be described as "somewhat off", but coming out you realize there was never a point to bother eating it in the first place.

They're pulling a McDonalds. McDonald's lets you have the McRib for a time, then they callously take it away.

Ahhh the McRib.  Another one of my guilty pleasures.  When they return I order two.  I devour them both in mere minutes, then regret it for hours with every fiber of my being.  Then 6 months later, when they return, I do the same thing knowing what the outcome will be.  I hate myself.

Quinces reduce wonderfully; I shall be lucky to get a gallon of jelly.

I am sorry about Taco Bell.  I see that it is more an act of furtive rebellion for you than the epicurean palace I imagined.

Ha ha ha I'm stealing that, without any attribution whatever.

I'm mad at McD's because they have some great stuff for other markets they won't let us have here.  Why can't I have a Samurai Burger or Banana Pie?  They need a little international corner on their menu.

I've just given up all pretenses of guilt. I just eat the hell out of McRibs when they're around. I don't care who sees me. Except Cupcake because I'd get yelled at.

There are those who consider Taco Bell an epicurean palace. It typically depends on your age and the degree of 'munchies' one has after indulging in certain extracurricular activities.   Me...I just crave it and indulge every couple months or so.  I'm so glad they've delayed their delivery service.  I would go into a downward spiral.

LOL!   I feel ya man.  No shame here either.   But I really do feel awful after eating them.

This is why we need the Banana Pie.  They make everything better even post-McRib malaise.

Only a gallon? Reducing quinces is truly a labor of love then. What a bitter mistress fruit can be.

My entire life is an act of furtive rebellion. While Cupcake describes it as "living with a 40 year-old stoned toddler", I prefer to cast it as an epic struggle against the powers that be that would have me eating nothing but salads and tofu with nary a single Snicker's bar or potato chip in the whole mix. So I sneak and yearn for a day where I may eat free and weigh more than a buck forty.

Yes, I know. Evil bastards. I too have looked at their international menus and drooled. On the other hand, tastes can be quite different. I remember eating KFC in Europe and it just wasn't the same as here. Not bad, per se, but nothing like the delicious moistness of Col. Sander's original 11 herbs and spices.

[ShayP]

I'm down with the banana pie.  Don't recall ever having it let alone seeing it, but I'm 100% in!
