A software program that lets you enter a few ingredients and then displays recipes by category? I think about this whenever I open the refrigerator and see ingredients that will soon go bad unless they're soon used. Anybody know a recipe involving capers, pearl onions, sweet pickle relish, mayo, and/or celery?
An adapter for lamp shades that grip incandescent light bulbs but that can't hang onto the new curclicue lights (and also invent a new term for the lights since there's nothing bulbous about them)?
[more?]

Several years ago there was an old dos program called Meal Master that had the ingredients option.. I can't say if there is a later version or not.. It might be worth searching for it..


As matter of fact have a look here....http://home.comcast.net/~episoft/mmdown.htm (http://home.comcast.net/%7Eepisoft/mmdown.htm)

That Magic Toob looks like it has handles.

Well would you look at that. Can a society that produces such inventive genius be far from utopia?

The goal is moolah. Filthy lucre. So much that you can wallow in it nekkid with Richie Rich cartoons running on the big screen in the background.

We be screwed...

"That Magic Toob looks like it has handles."
Are you disappointed it doesn't have ... knobs?

"Can a society that produces such inventive genius be far from utopia?"
Look closer, they don't call it Braintree for nothing. Besides, Utopia was Todd Rundgren's band from 1973 to 1986. Hello, it's me?

"We be screwed... "
Consider the English, they get bayoneted. (That was a really SICK light bulb joke.)

They also sell fluorescent light bulbs that have a globe around them that is the same size and shape as a standard bulb. Only difference is that instead of a vacuum and a filament they have a fluorescent tube enclosed in the bulb.
