Hmmm meatloaf! ;-) the east german Jägerschnitzel is coated "Jagdwurst" with breadcrumbs. Josef Hmm. I don't think I like the sound of that. Are you crazy? That sounds AWESOME. All it then needs is some mashed potatoes! Bangers and Mash are my second favorite typically British food, after Fish and Chips. I think the name of the sausage is "Cumberland Sausage" and you cannot find it over here in the USA, unless you grind your own. I adore fish and chips in the UK 8-). That and breakfasts!

But in the context of "democracy" meaning the people have a vote in a Republic, no problem. So -- has the topic of a Constitution of some kind been mooted in the UK? A strange question. We British have had a Constitution since at least 1688. -- JohnT |

But for sausage I love Germany! +1 German sausages are predominantly meat. English sausages have a very high fat content and gawd know what else in them. Scottish black pudding beats them all. English sausages sound like too many US sausages. The ultimate sausage territory I've sampled is Thuringia 8-) -- Erilar, biblioholic medievalist with iPad |

It was some kind of berry, I think, like a strawberry but more tart. Prolly "Preselbeer", iirc Cowberries, which are similar to cranberries. Ah, yes, I think that's it. * Sorry, smelling ****take: "Preiselbeer" with "ei". -- Tim C. Linz, Austria. |

From Wikiquotes: The phrase "I know it when I see it" is a colloquial expression by which a speaker attempts to categorize an observable fact or event, although the category is subjective or lacks clearly defined parameters. The phrase was famously used in this sense by United States Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart to describe his threshold test for obscenity in Jacobellis v. Ohio (1964). -- Jim Silverton (Potomac, MD) Extraneous "not." in Reply To. |
