The Frog of War

While I see no particular reason to trust a couple of "senior Pakistani security officials" any more than I'd trust any other government officials, it's fer shiz true that America's story keeps a-changin. SHE KIDNAPPED HERSELF!

"FROG" SOUP

A recipe from our British friends at mumsnet - hence the grams and liters - although the "tablespoon" is still called for, I see.


Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium leek
1 medium stick celery
225g potato (diced)
1 liter vegetable stock
280g frozen petits pois
Some grated cheese to sprinkle on top when served

Method
1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the leek and fry over a medium heat for 5 mins until softened. Add the celery and potato and cook for a further 5 mins.

2. Pour the stock over the vegetables and bring to the boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 15 mins. Add petits pois and simmer further 5 mins until potato is tender.

3. Using a hand blender or food processor, blend the soup until smooth. Reheat if necessary before serving and top with grated cheese.

But, but, but, they was staring intently at a live video feed as the deal went down! Who ya gonna believe?

Oh. Sorry. I've been informed there was a 25 minute gap of downtime.

Someone help me out with this:
1. Four helicopters land (OK, sort of quietly) and an Indian guy a mile away tweets about the noise…
2. SEALS kill a couple of people with gunshots while working their way up to Bin Ladin’s floor…
3. …and Bin Ladin doesn’t have a gun in his hand when the SEALS arrive at his door…? Is he deaf or something?"

Gah, it's almost as though Bin Laden wasn't a video game super-villian with a massive security detail and an Rocket Launcher for an arm! You ever feel like you've been ripped off?

"Is he deaf or something?"

Probably was high.

When the raid began, Bin Laden was watching "The Delta Force" with the volume way up. Then he was paralyzed with shock because Chuck Norris himself led the attack squad.

Bin Laden didn't blow up the PJ's...

So, what I heard from Brenda was that Chico and Jorge were in there with Sama and they said that he was sitting there badmouthing the shit out of Bama right before the elephant seals got him got him! LOL!

What's everyone doing for Cinco de Mayo? I'm going to drink too much caffeine and get all jittery and suffer from insomnia.

For Hills that was the most intense 38 minutes of video-feed mansplainin' of her life.

I sometimes get snarky in the blog of war.

The AP is reporting that Osama's last words were "save me President Bush!" - why?

Gridlock said...

If inkberrow stops posting we know why.

Next week, al-zawahiri will be dramatically but invisibly shot and buried at sea after being found in a suspiciously well secured El Pollo Loco in Houston.

MTV Cribs Pakistan must be shit. This was a million dollar compound? Didn't even have central air or a flatscreen.

Gridlock said...

Oh and the tbsp/gram paradox is because we're still secretly imperial so every British recipe you'll find will quote ingredients in 25g increments; when we read these we know that the author means 9oz or whatever. It's like dog whistle cooking.

How big is a 'cup' FFS? Espresso or Latte?
