http://johno.jsmf.net/knowhow/ngram... If I am down, that page always gives me a huge laugh. Sometimes I tweak them a bit and post them here at chessgames. |

Place shaped carrots in some ordinary white wine. Then place two hard-boiled eggs into neat rounds and brush with lemon-juice. Simmer a side dish, and drop the meat in. Next put the yolks of good golden by the water, chopped, then put some potatoes with two carrots, one lemon, and if you can, fry in a well-buttered frying-pan. Next dust a steak, shred it in, cook it about five minutes, with a lemon, and pour in butter, flavor it in the fire to turn the usual kinds, in small quantity of milk. Sweeten the slices of one and salt. Roll them in a good shape, not over done lest it is any veal in haste, and pass it out, garnished with pepper. |

| May-09-17 | | thegoodanarchist: And now for some spiritual inspiration:
And lo, there came into the lintel, upon you your father, and sat on for the way which Jehovah said unto my law, or how saidst thou, that she saw that she conceived, and his brethren be male and Accad, and ten asses with Abram moved his brethren to the evil report of Israel out of the waters.

| May-09-17 | | thegoodanarchist: And forget ye not, that which the prophet hath spake: "take you treasure in our God, Behold, my sister, be gone; and I not answer him; but lay up the son Isaac. But flesh in the second month Abib. And Judah said unto him also. And they rose up, and Accad, and begat Mehujael: and his brethren; For He redeemed me out his sons' wives that is this? that thou wilt hold on the pillar, and yielded up a few in the seventh day that thou fearest God, lest ye have gotten a handmaid. In the ark. And God made him according to be found, he had" Amen |

|
| May-12-17 | | thegoodanarchist: Why is he angry? Did he always dream of becoming a banker, but was forced into the hospitality industry by an overbearing father? |
|

I appreciate the surveys you have carried out so far. The work of your assistants is praiseworthy too; you know how to keep them busy. Do not desist from your zealous labours! Bring the work to a happy conclusion! Any interruption would be irksome to me.
Furthermore, rest assured that the matter of your remuneration will be decided very soon. I am keeping an eye on you." - Franz Kafka. |
