HOW TO CLEANSE THE SWAMP

Florida has already implemented the best way to clean the swamps of unnatural and unwanted low life.

They have a program whereby hunters may go into the swamp, hunt and kill unwanted species.

Did anyone see the 17 foot replica of "Big John" that the hunters bagged last week.  The largest ever to be killed in the Florida Everglades.  See, even the most powerful constrictors can be taken down by the "Good Old Boys".

We could have a fee for "THE HUNT".

$10,000.00 for the  100 scaled, small minded, limited to  the first 5,000 applicants whose check did not bounce, had passed a firearms background check, was noted as a great gut shot artist, and usually dispatched with four or five shots.

$5,000.00 for the smaller but more damaging house pests (we  know how termites can take down a house, limited to 25,000 applicants.  All requirements for previous applied.

DRAINING THE SWAMP

Sometimes we must just let things take their natural course.

President Trump said that he would drain the Swamp of Despair and the Swamp of Disgust (They are interchangeable).

The Swamp of Disgust has already begun.  Senators Jeff Flake and Ted Corker have crawled from the muck, tucked their scaled tails between their legs and are slithering away on bloated bellies.  Al Franken Pulled up his scales from around his ankles and his wandering clawed paws from sleeping women's breasts and is heading back to SNL (Slithering Neanderthal  Lowlifes).  John McCain's time is coming to an end as second malignant tuma has been found.  How could a malignancy been found in t mass of nothing but malignancy?

Hopefully  Moore can win in Alabama, be sworn in, then kicked out of the Swamp (how bad does one have to be to be kicked out of the swamp)  Then a special election can be held.

Five down and 95 to go.  Natural selection at work.

I don't have time to get to the huge number of those in the Swamp of Despair but at last count their numbers were at around 20 against whom claims have been issued and we certainly need to keep moving to reclaim the swamp for us regular scum.

     

HOW TO COOK A CHUCK ROAST

I have been asked by several people to as to how I prepare at chuck roast for Sunday Dinner.

This mat not be the way a great trained chef would do it but here it is.

You need a 3-4 lb. roast.  I prefer boneless.  If you by it at the supermarket you will get a lesser cut called choice.  Remember when there were several grades of o beef?  Prime, choice, good medium, common, cutter and canner.

You and I almost never saw the common, cutter and canner, except perhaps in canned soups and common hamburger.

Then the government saw fit to drop real prime and call choice- prime and good-. choice.

Then they did away with prime for the grocery trade and have ever since sold us the old good, now labeled as choice.

I prefer prime (though perhaps not labeled as such) as is found in classy butcher shops and high end markets. 

Three pounds will feed 5-6 well on Sunday.  A four pounder will feed 5-6 on Sunday with enough left over for cold roast sandwiches and hot roast beef sandwiches during the week.

First you need either a deep sided cast iron skillet with a lid or a small cast iron Dutch Oven  with a lid.

I use a cast iron skillet heated high in which to sear the roast.  I use two table spoons of bacon grease to coat each side of the roast and season both sides with salt, coarse ground pepper and garlic powder.

Then I quickly brown each side (3 mins.).  Place roast in cast iron skillet or Dutch Oven, pace in preheated oven (250 degrees) for 31/2 hours for the 3 pounder and 4-41/2 hours for 4 pounds.

I never, never, never add carrots, potatoes or onions.
