    Lawsuit Started Against McDonald's... Is McD's Liable?

    The idea that people stood by and watched the attack w/out calling 911 is not factual. The employees didn't call 911 before the attack which is the basis of the law suit. Just like the other bystanders whom didn't call 911 before the attack. Why not sue the cops who were called to the...

    Lawsuit Started Against McDonald's... Is McD's Liable?

    What are you cooking or baking today?

    Fish curry w coconut milk I question the dried fruit in the curry recipe, I haven't ever seen it in Indian curries. Dried fruit is sometimes used in biryanis, which are rice dishes with or w/out meat, but no sauce.

    Got some aches and muscle soreness due to the last 2 days of off-piste skiing. The skiing on non - groomed runs particularly in low light causes a bit of a rougher ride at times so the muscles take some time to adapt. I wouldn't normally go out of my way to ski bumps aka moguls but that can't...
