I make scones every Sunday along with bacon and scrambled eggs or eggs scrambled with lox. I serve the scones with barely whipped cream (almost like your clotted cream it is so softly whipped) and raspberry jam. Scones are a real tradition in Boston. And we drink A LOT of tea. In fact, we are so serious about our tea over here, that I believe we started a bit of battle with you guys over it, if memory serves me.

Yes, I love the taste and texture of fish, even plain. Pan fried seabass is beautiful, salmon en papillote is awesome, just with light seasoning and some rosemary....mmmm....

I've always wondered what other nations stereotypes of the English are.

I've just noticed that Boston is on the same latitude as where my uncle lives.

I love scones...

Well, if you ever visit Boston you will notice that it is England. Period. Our roots are British and our culture is British based. The city looks like England as opposed to LA or NY. We have the most British (Scottish and Irish included) residents in the nation. I mean, England is Boston's history. When I went to England, I just thought I was home. The people, too. We copied you, I think is how it goes, and not the other way around. Even the way we talk. We do not sound like the dopes on youtube and in movies that pretend to have a Boston accent. Not even close. We say Mum and B-ah-th and l-ah-f (laugh) and drink the most tea in the nation. New England style cooking is very British, as well. There is a famous expression that refers to us as Proper Bostonians, as in how the Brits are proper.

Btw, where does your uncle live?

Salem, Mass. is also where they had the Witch Trails - yeah, alll of those young girls nbanding together and having seizures [fake] and pulling their hair and vomiting and pointing fingers and sayineg: 'yes, yes, yes, she has put a spell on me, possessed me, made me do terrible, evil things... Interesting, it was later observed that theses were 'Pubescent' Girls. It was stated this had something to do with that.
By the way, is this 'off topic'?

Of course, women can get away with anything as long as they are PMS'ing.

You're not 'smart' anything. Maybe you we're just being a jack-ass.

Pleas stay on-topic. Thank you.

If it annoys you I find it quite intelligent and funny. Can't please everyone I guess.

Well, if you find it quite intelligent and funny, then as I pointed out before, that's because you're a jack-ass; now isn't it?

RANDOM BACK-TALK

We're all guilty!

I thought that we might try this and see how it works out.

Here's the deal:

If you find that you and another member(s) are really going mad off-topic, this is the place to take your off-topic discussions, just so we don't clutter up threads with a lot of random back-talk!

Nobody is going to flip out if you don't do this but if you find that you and another/others are going off on an extended personal/unrelated tangent, then you might want to shoot it over here.

*****

Just a note. No one has complained to me about members going off-topic.
You can blame me alone for this! I just thought it was a fun/courteous idea. If most of you don't like this idea, speak up and I will remove this thread.

Here is a nice idea from the #1 moderator, HP!

Why, thank you my dear Knight in Shining Armor. Wait. That would be 'Night' in Shining Armor. Oh, whatever. Thank you.

Anyways, the Pollock sounds to die for. Did you know that in Italy, you never put cheese on fish? Even in a fish sauce on pasta. Never. I think some Pope made that rule. I'll have to check with AC, just to make sure if an ancient Pope is responsible for that.

Hey, L. I don't think Mumbles is a Moderator anymore. It says Senior Member under his avatar now and not Moderator anymore. Do you know how to bring up the page that shows who the Mods are? I don't know how to find that page.

And thank you very much.

I been trying to figure that out myself, I heard you guys saying they had 4 new ones, I wanted to see who they were. I cant find any link that identifies who the mods are.

I will say this, they are doing a good job of keeping the spam and other garbage off the site, whoever they are.
