You Lie! I was pretty much brought up on industrial food and those biscuits from a can (especially the kind with layers, and the kind the call croissants) are heaven. A zillion percent saturated fat, perfect for those artic winters.

Best biscuits ever are the Hungry Jack flaky biscuits from the can. Top 'em off with hamburger (not sausage) gravy and you have yourself one of the best meals ever. Scratch biscuits are good, but there is just something about those cheapo Hungry Jack biscuits.

And hamburger gravy is so damn simple to make.

Add a little cayenne for some extra flavor.

Hungry Jack, I don't know why that escaped my mind, but I couldn't think of the name. The flaky ones where you can peel off the layers. I actually like sloppy joe with biscuits more than hambuger buns, but I've never tried hamburger gravy.

Now maybe they were thinking about McDonalds biscuits which seem pretty bad to me. Dry and at the same time a bit cloying, heavy on the lard when they made those. KFC biscuits used to be really good, but so did their chicken about 30 years ago.

(sorry about the threadjack)

No man, hamburger meat is so not the right call..you have to go with the classic sausage and then Jimmy Dean does well for the quick version. Course you have to then cook the gravy in all the rendered fat and charred bits of the sausage.
As for biscuits I used to have a good recipe but its been lost in some moves. So now yeah the ones in a can work hell of a lot better then Bisquick. Unless someone can tell me how to make a better biscuit (I'm all for good recipes

)

But maybe not in Cincinnati.

No, I distinctly remember that as a Wisconsin fetish, along with Cannibal Sandwiches.

No, no. Real men produce duct tape from their nipples, and biscuits just happen to get stuck in the gooey lactation. Them thar wife-beater t's gots a reasons they're sooo white, y'know.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

LOL. I was thinking the same thing, Kask. I thought I was going to have to remind people that this is a GenCon thread. :wink:

i tape up the nipple area when i am running, especially when i am in the sahara. chapped nips is just about the worst thing let me tell you.

i have used band-aids (crap) and use leukotape most times (lot tougher and doesnt come off, though can be a bitch taking it off, espcially if any hair is in that area too!)

oh and by the way, she was a fine looking lass. i saw her outside a few times - she looked even better there

well worth going to the booth to look at the great material...and the RPG stuff too :lol:

Are we nearly there yet?

Okay guys. Enough messing around. I want to see some pictures of Gencon. I know millions of pixels were sacrificed taking photos. Share!

I have a nice one, with me in it of course, but have no idea how to post it here.
But you can see it here.

Wise move, Adder, not to risk your camera with a pic with me in it. I'm the partial bald head behind Bill's bald head. Did you need a special filter to reduce the glare? lol

Buncha wankers!

No biggie....I already posted a pretty nice one of her already.

Good stuff man. Wish my camera hadnt died on me Friday. I would have liked to have gotten a few "action" shots of the shrew and the rest of the group.
