Yes, Folks...

 

There are good days and bad days for chickens in China.

 

Here is a bad day for chickens in China:

I captured this image, mostly out of my reverence for chickens, which is well known among my friends.

 

Speaking of Bad Days, my favorite film of Bad Days is this one.... Bad Day at Black Rock....and here is just a snippet for you all, Folks!

 

 

There is chili with beans, and chili WITHOUT beans, on a bad day, if you know what I mean.

 

Any good thoughts about either the film or the chickens?

 

I must say, though, that I love China.

I have always loved China.

 

Tracy was always amazing, of course.

 

Best regards,

And you thought I had kicked the bucket under the Big W......????

No way, Jose....

Not yet, and, ....

From Texas: If you know chili with beans, you don't know beans about chili.

Jesus Gamster, where u been man?

Sometimes, as Sterling Hayden once so precociously stated, it's just best to withhold one's bodily fluids.

 

Less is more.

 

Welcome back.

Aren't all days bad days for chickens ?

Chili con carne y frioles.

I remember a street in China that had skinned dogs hanging out to dry. From street level up to 4th floor, several blocks running, both sides, every building, hundreds of them. It was truly horrific.

Wonder if Lewie London will disappear now.

Don't encourage it. You are enabling it.

 Some of us thought it was a case of red roofing.

If you think the chickens in China having a bad run, spar a thought for the poor donkeys in China:

 

"6 million donkeys slaughtered for Chinese health supplement, charity says"

No beans in your chili. Crumble up saltines, instead. If you can't find those, substitute Fritos.

AI quickie:

 

In most chili cook-offs, chili does not contain beans. Traditional competition chili, especially that judged by organizations like the International Chili Society (ICS), is defined as meat (or a combination of meats) cooked with chili peppers, spices, and other ingredients, but without beans or other fillers like pasta or rice.

Gamma, darling, where’ve you been hiding for the past thousand years? Prancing around naked in your dank hovel in CM again with the air-con cranked to 15 degrees like some frosty hermit? We’ve been pining for you, sweetheart. And what’s with the single sad YouTube link in your latest post? You used to regale us with dozens of music videos combined with epic tales of washing machines, computer towers, and every other mind-numbing gadget under the sun. This is amateur hour. Can’t we at least get a Rolling Stones rant or a Tina Turner trivia dump? Poor Eric Clapton is losing sleep over your disappointing fall from babble greatness, that's what Jeff Beck always said anyway.

You're right. Traditional Texas chili doesn't have beans. I do make it myself with beans as I like it, but have had some killer Texas chili while living there, and can't wait to get back and indulge it, along with BBQ again. 

Definitely, chili without beans.  Beans are nothing but filler, for the poor folks 😎

Funny thread. I think gamma hasn't felt quite as needed as he was in the past since lewie london took his place as the proliferator of spent verbage. Though lewie could be consider a bit of a poet.

I thought it was because he didn't have time with all the posting from his two new accounts. (Khaohom 100%, Quentin Zen 60%)

No you were not. You missed him.

This is not an image that is uniquely Chinese; it could come from Thailand or any SE Asian country that is poor.

You think GG has turned into a bit of a jilted Lilly now? Could be, but it's still very unusual that he doesn't account for at least 2/3 of the replies to his own original post. He hasn't responded yet to any of the other replies to his OP either. Something must be out of gamma in the world of globulins.

It's like country music vs country and western.

Comparing Susan to Lewie, that's like Forest Gump versus Albert Einstein.
