My limited experience, tells me that most ethnic food served in restaurants in America, is exaggerated. Meaning it has more salt, fat, sugar, flavor, than it would traditionally have. It's kind of like what the Royal Chef would cook for a spoiled rotten Royal family.

Minestrone soup? Left over whatever goes into the pot for next meal. Buddy & I went t Milan, young Italian guy 'adopts' us and takes us to see 'Last Supper' frescoe, Leonardo's museum. Then takes us to family Italian restaurant. Salad (can't eat),veggies (can't eat), huge plate of spaghetti noodles, plate of large meat balls, bread - can't remember the rest. Total bill was like 15$US for 3. Took bus (wasn't sure it was right one but everybody nodded when we asked) to train back to Genoa. In France , ask for something you recognize and it would be something else you didn't recognize. German Weiner schnitzel is actually veal.

It broke the first time I used it to screw a steel screw into plastic threads. Bought a two-pack to compare to the Milwaukee bits I've abused and not broken. Proves much to me, but your milage may vary.

i got a package of those in the door of the truck.
they ain't for your drill gun, they are for those little Impact buzz drivers that come in your 20V tool pack.

I have Milwaukee twisty shanked bits that works perfectly well with both the drill and the impact driver.

Probably a fluke, still . . .

Skateboards have steerable front wheels though. Lean one way and the wheels turn.

When I was in high school, I built a skateboard and both the front and rear/rear and front trucks, depending on which way I was going, were steerable.

Rick,
It is a really tasty mashed vegetable curry. Containing Potatoes, Cauliflower, Peas and other cooked veggies blended with 16 Indian spices which is the "Pav Bajhi Masala"...The blended spices are made into this Masala and then added to the crushed veggies along whit Butter and Cream
It is one of my Favorite Indian Dishes. The spice blend warms you nicely

Had steak and kidney pie in Hong Kong while I was on R&R. The three Aussies I teamed up with said it was very good, but it was pretty bland British tasting to me. But we had been drinking beer all day, and my judgement may have been off a little.

beer may effect judgement, but it don't affect taste buds.

yep, skateboards steer from all four tires, well actually from leaning on the bushing in the ball socket bolted to the board.
the tires don't really turn in the normal sense you put more pressure on one side or the other making the leaned on tire 'flex' to the rear because of the positive caster the trucks have.
