Competitive Programming
Why do they have to put shows that compete against each other on at the same time? Especially with the current dearth of programming. I mean, I get that Thursday night is the most lucrative night of the week, so everyone wants a piece of that ad revenue. But, do Lost and Supernatural have to be on at the same time? Really?
My memory of when I was younger was that shows that targeted different audiences were on a the same time, so old people could watch Murder She Wrote and I could watch something good. (No I don’t remember what exactly I watched when Murder She Wrote was on, but I know it wasn’t targeted at the geriatric crowd.) Everyone was happy.
Am I remembering wrong? Or was that truly a golden age for viewers who never had to choose between two shows? (Or more than two shows, since that’s all my DVR can handle at once.)

I don’t know if I have this exactly right – but on Oprah – Dr Oz said that most people dump the oil (Olive Oil) in the pan, heat it and then add whatever they are cooking. Heating the oil (like that) kills or changes the health benefits of the oil. So – yes – I use a non stick pan – I put a tiny bit of spray in the bottom if it is something that is likely to stick – otherwise I just leave it dry. Sometimes I put oil and food in a bag and shake it (like shrimp) other times I put veggies in pan – heat and stir for a while and then add the measured olive oil near the end of the cooking.

when adding it to the veggies – I can usually add so that it doesn’t end up in the pan – it ends up coating the veggies (that is why I wait until near the end).
