Heat up the oil until it sizzles when you drop water on it. Toss in the tomatoes and squash and let them sizzle on one side for about 1 minute. Sprinkle the flour or corn flakes on top, then, turn the entire mixture over. Sauté until it is done. I like it bordering on dark brown, but with the veggies still al dente.
While the sautéing, get two large bowls (for eating) and put 1 cup of lettuce into each. Add half the cilantro to each.
When the sauté delight is done, put half in each bowl. Top with the salsa and sour cream if you like it. Since I don't eat sour cream, there is only one spoonful above, but there would have been two had I wanted one on my bowl.
The salad mixture can be whatever kind of lettuce plus other salady things you like. Ours had cucumbers, red tomatoes, cabbage and romaine.
HA HA HA.lots of hydroponics and grow lights?

Yesterday, the Tennessee Center for Policy Research (TCPR) released an update in the now infamous research of a year ago on Al Gore's personal energy use.
Astoundingly, his energy use went up after spending more money than many of us could imagine on such a thing to add solar panels to his mansion, along with a fancy schmancy geo thermal heating system, GWB style.
An excerpt:
This year, Al Gore's Spokes Person actually responded to the data release with the following summarized statement from our local paper:
But look carefully at the above statement - it does not answer the question about electricity. Their gas bills must have gone down from the geothermal heating system, but the solar panels have done nothing to reduce their electricity.
How do I know? Well, the spreadsheet summary is right here. (Compare June 2007, pre-renovation, to June 2008, post-renovation. Not only is there no decrease, the electricity use INCREASED.)
Any Tennessee resident can request their own copies for this data if they want to verify it, but I can see no reason why the Nashville Scene would lie.
Gore's spokeswoman on the other hand, while she is technically not lying, is misleading the conversation (and I suppose doing her job well.) She in fact distracts us from the much more important question:
What is all this electricity, combined with all the electricity generated via the solar panels, being used for?
Anyone have any ideas?

This just in from my favorite real estate agent who is also a musician:
THE REDNECK YACHT CLUB sets sail this weekend at Hurricane Marina on Center Hill Lake! We play at 7pm. Here are the directions! From I-40, take Exit 273 toward Smithville / McMinnville.
Follow TN-56 South for 3.5 miles. Turn RIGHT onto Floating Mill Road, and follow the signs towards Hurricane Marina.
A friend of mine, Steve Williams, wrote a country song entitled "Redneck Yacht Club" with a buddy of his named Tom Shepard and it was a big hit single a couple of years ago by Craig Morgan.
Now Steve and Tom have starting doing gigs calling their act "The Redneck Yacht Club".
Most of the gigs are at marinas as they're playing up the "boating" thing. That's what this is all about. We're doing songs they've written along with some Jimmy Buffet tunes and other fun stuff.
Tell everybody to come out!
The 2005 Song performed by Craig Morgan:
My friend was just chatting with me and came up with the following statement:
I almost blew a gasket last week when [my son's] English teacher sent home an assignment; interview your parents or grandparents about the great depression and what they remember from it...
Now, I am no history major, but it did not take me long to figure out that this assignment is impossible for most of America's children.
Worse, who wants to learn from an English teacher who has no idea that the Great Depression was so long ago that his/her student's parents AND grandparents were probably not alive for it.
Sheesh.

If you get pissed off about special interests of BIG OIL being represented, then you should be outraged when the GOVERNMENT MONOPOLY keeps you from getting decent internet service, or worse, causes a mother and child to be separated because of national origins.
