The two main cultivars of the herb parsley, are curly parsley (Petroselinum crispum) with ruffled leaves and Italian parsley (Petroselinum crispum neapolitanum) with flat leaves. In general, flat-leaf parsley has a more robust flavor, while the curly variety is associated with decoration.

This is important to know for proper cooking.

Most Abstract Art has a short-term function. Some Abstract Art has a long-term function.

If you send me $100, I will explain the difference and why the difference is not important to you, to your family, to your nation, the planet, or to the whole universe in general.

Using the correct parsley is of much more global importance.

Curly parsley makes its case.

Do you pronounce Oregano similiar to how you pronounce the first phoneme in how you might pronounce the first phoneme in Origami. Or not.

Phoneme is the wrong word. And I didn't need to bring up Origami.
I'm no linguist but either one of these two pronunciations has four sounds to me.

I remember I read the word oregano before ever hearing it pronounced. And I pronounced it the UK way. Then I heard for the first time on That 70s show and I thought I was wrong for a while until balance was restored in the universe again.

Edit - The Spanish pronunciation is closer to the way USAers say it. That is why USA say it differently I bet.

Class dismissed

Comparing it to Latin. The UK way is most different. Now I'm wondering how I managed it to nail it the UK way when I guessed it as a kid. Only to hear it pronounced years later. That will show you how important oregano is in my life

Go ahead and pronounce it its Greek name that is where it comes from, 1/2*(Ree-Ya-nee+Ree-Ga-nee)!

Sure it makes many dishes and salads more alive.

All herbs and spices are awesome.

A spice is a seed, fruit, root, bark, or other plant substance primarily used for flavoring, coloring or preserving food. Spices are distinguished from herbs, which are the leaves, flowers, or stems of plants used for flavoring or as a garnish.

Cinnamon and cloves, great in curries, perfect in an apple crumble.

The world deserves to go to hell with the bs house of cards it has been running for years.

Oh of course no problem printing 5 tril $ for this bs mess that could have been stopped in its start if there was more seriousness especially from the mfing scum commie party of China and then the imbecile super charlatan snakeoilman, the archangel of mfers united worldwide, Trump himself, that first loved them and now tries to construct whatever unimaginable bs crap theory except how to solve it. Why dont they facking die already to be done with such losers and their mega jerkoff supporters that still remain believers to such aholes.

5 maybe 10 eventually tril added dept no problem but of course we cant spend 1 tril over a decade attacking with immense focus all the existential risks the planet faces before they happen. We cant even prepare a little. Of course not.

Oh because we will entrust our hopes and dreams to capitalism who of course is so irresponsibly ridiculous that it doesnt even care to protect its own future as a system against the rage of the masses that is coming eventually, given all the piling garbage of irrationality.

Only a moronic society doesnt care about the very probability to survive it all. So there you have it, it wont.

Rant? Its not rant. Its the way things are in their core. Profane and insane over root 2.

I’ll adjust the numbers upward to be relevant for the next week or so but from the World-o-meter coronavirus site the “latest “data”*: ~4 million cases Worldwide and ~ 400,000** deaths Worldwide since about the first of the year; say four months. I’ll repeat that: 400,000 deaths WORLDWIDE in Four Months.

Now, take a deep breath and count to ten and see if you can try, just try, to think unemotionally about the last four months and the worldwide reaction. See if you can dispassionately and rationally think about the data (and more importantly how it is presented). Think about past events of similar, lesser, and much greater magnitude. Give a thought to what occurs every year all over the world. And give a more than just cursory look at the last 500 years of human history, or even just the last 100 years.

Now, compose a Montaigne -type essay or even just some cliff notes in your head. Wait a few days and go over it all again. Pour yourself a scotch, fire up a cigar, and sit back and relax. Then ask yourself a simple question; Did we miss a gorgeous opportunity here? Or just stick to our nominal and normal amount of human idiocy, knee-jerk reactions, and emotional frenzy? George Santayana; would he be smiling or just try and look meek and mild so no questions will be asked?

An added note –data using graphs or maps are presented in a variety of ways; and you can amp up the scale to illustrate whatever propaganda and/or political agenda you wish to engage in. And the simple fact, also, that the data is broken out by arbitrary nation state and lesser boundaries is gorgeously idiotic.

Many other points could be added; I'll let others do that or not depending on how the spirit moves them.


*Knowing that the data is an estimate and the error bars for much of it may approach 10% or more.

** The final death count will probably be significantly less than Four Million, hell, it will probably be less than Two Million. Worth a bet.
