   After three cups of instant, I find myself wondering how he can taste the fresh-ground. (And in any event, the proper way to make coffee requires an espresso machine, or a moka pot in a pinch.)

   I’m glad to see that someone knows the difference. Er, besides me, that is.

   Wildy? A bolt action? That doesn’t sound right, or have I missed something? Does the writer just mean “without bothering to aim properly”? (Yeah, I know, that wouldn’t fit in the panel…)

   I gotta thank you for this. I don’t follow the world of comics at all, aside from reading some strips here and at (coughs) another site, so when I saw “Eisner” l came looking for some comment on the (if you don’t know) apparent Disney reference. Thanks.

    For an interesting challenge, track down a copy of Escoffier’s little book, “Le guide culinaire”. My copy is a translation, “The Escoffier Cookbook,” containing 2973 recipes, and every single one of them is … charmingly … vague on trivia like how long to cook things, what temperature, how much of each ingredient, etc., etc., etc. It’s more like a list of “here’s something interesting you can cook based on these ingredients, go to it.”
