    Egg Nog!

    Egg Nog and Brandi In the bowl containing the egg yolks, beat the yolks using a mixer, if you have one. Slowly add in half of the half-cup of sugar, while still mixing. When really well mixed, set the yolk & sugar bowl aside and begin work on the egg whites. The egg whites need to be beaten stiff with the other half of the sugar. Combine the egg whites and the yolks and continue mixing on low speed.... Oh fuck it - it'll be faster if I just show you the picture....
  2. Another terrific review! Thank you!
  3. A paid message from the new RWG Premium Shill Ad Service
  4. Hmmm... What happens if I press this big red button?
  5. It's both fascinating and thought-provoking. A keepsake restoration indeed.
  6. Gigantic congratulations!! Trust me...the best is yet to come!
  7. To answer the original question: JohnG will be serving a timeout from the forum over the foreseeable future. He may, or may not, return.
  8. @JohnG - post deleted, why you would want to troll in the announcement thread for the new forum is beyond me. Thread closed then.
  9. Dani has been asked nicely to take a pass on taking the bait. And now I'm asking nicely not to bait him.
  10. Great post! This is one of the few watches that gets a flicker of interest from non-WIS types. Now all I need is a pictorial on how to remove a Vegas movement
  11. Easy fellas. I'm just yanking yer chain. [This was moved to the bin because of the slanging match, incidentally, not the original subject of the thread.] 120 members in a week is cool. And when JF joins you'll have 240
  12. Bonjour Gunera Huit Bienvenue chez RWG. Nous sommes quelques francophones
  13. Sweet lord - that is a superb acquisition!! I love the Ingy...then they made a bigger one! Enjoy - that's a fantastic watch
  14. This is PHENOMENAL!! Thanks guys - absolutely brilliant!
  15. Agreed - off to the Bin with this crap. The membership of the original RWG moved ship back in 06. Best of luck to Mary Celeste II.
  16. Welcome! Good to have another member from the tropics...
  17. :lol: That's TeeJay's Christmas shopping sorted then
  18. That wasn't what I was saying at all. I think many serious subjects fully deserve to be satirized, criticized and taken to pieces. War for example. Catch 22. Some Generals probably had their feelings hurt. My comment was in the context of Lanikai's original post.
  19. Oh, for crying out loud. No deities unless they wear a Swiss watch please, or unless the religion is keen on mechanical timepieces. Seriously. To agree with RobbieG I think Lanikai's heart is in the right place with children (of course), but you can't make sweeping moral judgments from a single instance. Police, lawyers, soldiers, doctors, nurses, prisoners, morticians all crack jokes about the most 'terrible' of things, because (at times at least) what other people find extraordinary is day to day life for them. Here's something interesting. I read this in the media this week, it was a quote from an oncologist - he said the single most common response from people being told that they have terminal cancer is, after a short period of disbelief and denial, that they MAKE A JOKE. There are no taboos, but yes, let's try not to hurt feelings.
