I don't really do much cooking, is it okay to leave out the first nine ingredients?

A missionary is captured by two members of a cannibalistic tribe. They bring him back to their village and tell the people who run the communal kitchen to put on a big pot of water.

A nearby elder says, "No, no, not for this one. He's a friar!"

PARC.

I got to play with the <a href="http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Xerox_Alto#mediaviewer\/File:Xerox_Alto_mit_Rechner.JPG" target="_blank">Xerox Alto </a> system in the mid-1970s . . . and while it did have a bitmapped screen (radical at the time) and a mouse, it ran on a $10,000 minicomputer. Steve's genius was in imagining that you could turn it into a consumer product.

I'm going to bet that St. Joseph never expected the Spanish Inquisition. (Yes, he was in Italy, but much of the country was under the control of Aragon at the time.)

Sounds almost like my favorite soup, except swap out turnip or mustard greens for artichokes, and turnips or parsnips for olives, and boil in a pot of water after sauteeing to half-done.
