Got this from a homie in New Orleans (the home of jambalaya - for those who don't know), it's the bomb: 3 lbs shrimp, butterflied and halved 1 lbs sausage 1 tbs oil 1 tbs butter 1 cup onion, chopped 1 cup green pepper, chopped 1/2 cup celery, chopped 2 bay leaves 1-16 oz can tomatoes 3 cloves garlic, crushed 1/4 cup parsley 2 cups stock 1/2 green onion 1 tps thyme 1 tps basil 1/8 tps cayenne 1 tps salt 1/2 tps chili powder 1 1/2 cup long grain rice 1/8 tps cloves 1/8 tps all spice Add oil and butter to stock pot. Add onion, pepper, garlic, and celery and sweat til soft. Add shrimp and cook til white. About 5 min. Remove shrimp, add sausage. Cook til sausage is ready (2 min). Add stock, tomatoes, bay leaves, parsley, thyme, basil cayenne, salt, cloves, all spice, chili powder and rice. Bring to boil, cover and cook under low heat for 20 mins. Add shrimp. Cook for 5 min and serve. The prep is kinda pain. Once you get past that, it is just like cooking rice. Enjoy with a glass of red wine and some Detroit techno. ;) _ In a rush?

For a second I thought to myself "aw man what does today's acquittal of the cops who shot Sean Bell have to do with the 313 list??" and thought you were inciting riots or something. Then I realized you must just be referring to king's famous line "can't we all just get along?" and that the overtone was just a coincidence.

Re: (313) Let's all have a Rodney King Moment ...
Wow, Kooky... I know Tom was guilty on the first account, as I remember when that threat happened, but on the other 3 guilty verdicts... where did you base your supporting evidence and where was the jury to define guilt or innocence? I know here in America democracy is almost dead, but I thought we still had a process where a guilty verdict is found through providing evidence and having a group discussion determine guilt or innocence. Forgive me for bringing up the Hitler name again, but I think in this situation, it smells a lot like the Death of a Democracy. Kook, I know you've got long-standing beef with Tom, but try to at least put some sort of evidence like you did in the first guilty verdict. It'll make your argument a bit more viable and a bit less dictatorial a**hole.

OK OK, my Hitler comment was only a joke! ;) Rob Taylor VT Librarian x8599 Hatch Desk x1088 VT Library Users' Guide -Original Message- From: kent williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 April 2008 14:30 To: list 313 Subject: (313) Let's all have a Rodney King Moment ... Some things about the recent thread: 1. The big bright line over which one should not cross on the 313 list is this: No personal attacks, no threats of violence. I shouldn't think that's controversial. 2. I make no pretensions of impartiality as a system administrator. Impartiality you only get if you pay for it, and this is a volunteer position. I am friends in real life with a lot of people here, including Tom Cox. Anyone I know who gets obnoxious is likely going to get the benefit of the doubt from me. Anyone I don't know probably won't. I don't claim to be impartial, but I really try to be fair. 3. I don' t want to shut down or shape discussion on the list. That's never been what the 313 list has been about. I don't want to ban people from the list either -- that's only happened 3 or 4 times in the 14-odd years of 313. But I don't think personal attacks should be a part of the list, ever. If you can't make your point without insulting someone, well, you're not really making your point are you? Be a little more creative. 4. If I was to take a vote, judging by my e-mails, Tom Cox is not a popular figure on the list. Maybe I do give him a free pass because I've hung out with him, know his wife etc. But Tom at least cools his sh*t when I ask him. If I ask someone to back off, and I get attitude, it really gets up my nose. 5. If you disagree with someone, you should use that disagreement as a means to refine your expression of your own opinion. If you're mad because of something he says, channel it into wit, not vitriol. Your anger means very little in this context; your ability to clearly write what you think and feel is everything. And everyone should remember: the Internet is forever. Everyone on this list is going to be living with the stuff they write on it for the rest of their lives. If someone makes you mad, your best revenge is to think about the day he or she gets googled twenty years from now and they look like a tool. # Note: Any views or opinions are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Channel Four Television Corporation unless specifically stated.
