    Gone - Charlie Daniels

    My wife and I saw him in Jacksonville, Florida 1976 or 77. His band and Yvonne Elliman were the opening acts for Eric Clapton. She did an excellent job but Charlie Daniels stole the show. It took Clapton forever to get up to speed. Charlie Daniels was a Great Patriot ! rick

    Any egg-poaching experts here?

    Pan of boiling water (rapid boil)...gently drop raw egg into boiling water...gently stir being careful not to break egg...after white has begun to set up gently use a slotted spoon to "form" the egg. Experiment with cooking times but 3 minutes usually works... rick
