Pretty much. They darned well ought to have known better, but

politicians

will be politicians.

It does seem to take a certain type to
go into the business.

It definitely attracts a "type" these days; you have to have a certain
level of ego to even want the job.

A large dash of greed helps, as well.

That's one of the points that has periodically
come up.

...whilst among starving artists...?

... whose numbers diminish due to starvation
or seeing the light ...

And thus the day jobs.

That was the inevitable.

Life without waltzes, what a pity.

You do run across 6/8 once in a while.

6/8 is just 2/2 in disguise.

If sometimes a bit slower tempo. I've sung some harmonies in 6/8 over a
2/2 main lyric, so you're right.

Sometimes a bit slower, often quite quick.
Tarantellas and what my friend Cheryl used to
call "gig-oos" were generally in 6/8.

One bad tern deserved another.

What a gut wrenching thought.

Awk-ward position to be in.

Paprika Chicken
Categories: California, poultry, main
Servings: 6

1 c all-purpose flour, plus 2 Tb
2 Tb dried marjoram
3 ts sweet paprika
Kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 Tb unsalted butter
2 Tb olive oil
1 chicken, (3 to 4 lb) cut into 8 pieces
3 lg onions, chopped
1 Tb sugar
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 red bell peppers, diced
1 c tomato paste
2 c chicken broth
1 ts crushed red pepper flakes
2 c sour cream
1/2 c chopped fresh dill

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat;
add butter and oil. Heat until butter has
melted and oil is shiny.

if necessary, sear chicken on both sides until
golden brown, 4 min per side. Remove chicken
to a plate and set aside.

Add onions to the pot and reduce heat to medium.
Sprinkle with sugar and some salt and pepper.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions have
softened and turned golden, about 12 min. Add
garlic and bell peppers and cook for 1 min more.
Add tomato paste, chicken broth, red pepper
flakes, 1 Tb marjoram, and 2 ts paprika; stir
to combine. place chicken back in the pot,
nestling it in the sauce. Reduce heat to low and
simmer, covered, until chicken is very tender
and reaches an internal temperature of 165,
about 50 min. Remove chicken to a serving dish.

Mix sour cream with remaining 2 Tb flour in a
medium bowl. Stir mixture into the sauce.

Pour sauce over chicken and sprinkle
generously with dill.

Hence the tendency of local pols to land in jail. The ones who get to the national level have lawyers and underlings who handle the dirty stuff
instead.

I have more than a few friends good enough to go pro, one of whom I wish
WOULD record, but they like to eat.

Gigot? I thought that was lamb.
