"From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines, going where I list, my own master total and absolute, Listening to others, considering well what they say, Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."
Walt Whitman (1819-92)
"When I look back now over my life and call to mind what I might have had simply for taking and did not take, my heart is like to break."

Curry Favor
I was just looking for a good quick Curry Chicken recipe, and wanted to share some of the ones that I'm finding.
First, there was this one, obviously written by a person who is actually from India. You can tell by the way they worded it, such as saying that the chicken should be cut into "small small pieces" and then put "on" a frying pan. My favorite quote: "If you think the mixing and the cooking of the boneless chicken is good then put the tomato puree and mix it well." Sounds exciting.
Then there is this one, from Punjab, which calls for a "14 lb. chicken." Frankly, if I saw a 14 lb. chicken, I wouldn't call it, I would run.
Holy Smoke Reading Psalm 45, Karen Tosterud of Vermillion, S.D., noted that the Messiah’s “robes are all fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia” and decided “that gives the formula for Jesus’ scent when he returns.” So she and her husband are now selling “His Essence” candles that “smell like Jesus.” They retail for just $18. Tosterud shrugs off criticism that “we’re out to trash Jesus and make a lot of money.” Rather, she says, “We’re sincere Christians who are practicing a ministry.” (Minneapolis Star Tribune) ...Smells like Jesus? To me, it smells more like the money-changers in the temple. Available in This is True: Book Collection Vol. 11
