OK

From the caretaker of the cooking channel:
(Shepppard above has the low-down on good tater production!)

Made these 2 days ago:

4lbs unpeeled, red potatoes
stick o butter
3'4-1 cup Buttermilk
1-2 small cloves garlic
black,white,red pepper, sea salt, to taste

boil potatoes, rinse, drain, return to stove top on warm
with electric hand mixer, add other ingredients till creamy 'n fluffy, you may not use all the butter and buttermilk, so add and mix, repeat.

I covered these taters with some brown mushroom gravy with a red wine 'n sherry reduction added for some more levels of yum.

Oh and garlic. If you are going to add garlic, why fuck up your taters with powdered garlic? The stuff goes rancid too fast, and degradation of essence of ANY herb occurs once it has been processed.
Use a garlic masher yer a pussy, slice it or chop it, you are insane. Take the edge of a large chef's knife or cleaver and pulverize the clove with a quick blow of of fist. Bisect it, it's easier a half-at-a-time.

Garlic presses are for posers as well, and trying to wash one a pain-in-the-ass. Don't be a pussy, get a cleaver, they're like $5 at a Chinese grocery.

So... PlayhousePals?? You wanna me come over 'n rock yer kitchen sometime??

He never repeats his material after he does a special. He credits George Carlin for inspiring him to trash his material and start anew after every bit is perfected. Unlike comedians like Jerry Seinfeld that just tell the same jokes with the precision of a "technician". That would get old to me.>> ^Aniatario:

>> ^rottenseed:
Louis strikes me as the type of guy that will leave the business before others think he's ready. I think that once he's out of shit to say or he's not having fun anymore he'll disappear (or shift his efforts)>> ^Yogi:
Don't worry Louis you were right and it's all downhill from here.


I dunno if he's going to run out of ideas any time soon, he's just that good. That, and the fact that he takes a tremendous amount of inspiration from George Carlin. I remember reading his response to his recent success surrounding his "Live at the Beacon" performance. Much like Carlin, he approaches every performance as though it were his "annual crop." Reaping the fruits of his labour and then moving on to work on a brand new routine.

He actually took the time to address a few questions on reddit recently and I remember him saying that he has no plans of performing any of the jokes he prepared for his "Live at the Beacon" performance. The fact that he continues to pump out new and hilarious material as opposed to riding out a gravy train is pretty phenomenal.

So catchy.
"The gravi cans grabbel de cans over the sails after all!"


They sound like cats singing! In a good way

i woulda kicked her in da head too, BITCH EAT MAH SHOE, here some gravy tooo

I completely agree with the video. Make some tasty sides, serve good wine, and bury the basically tasteless turkey with something that has flavour. Mmmmmm, gravy. Or not.

Nobody bothered watching this the first time around. Maybe it will catch some eyes this time -- votes are just gravy.

after working as an attorney for 7 yrs, i would offer that the mindset of the attorney (who comprise most of our lawmakers), is all about the win, the deal, the conviction. it's all about the competition and the achievement. you are well-trained in the adversarial system, which means you bitterly fight for whoever is paying you. hired guns, no real morals. so yeah, of course.

these are our politicians, and they are all on the lobbyist gravy train. the republicans are almost blatant about it. the dems are a little more sneaky.

you have a presumably heavy camera!!!


The turkey menace must be stopped. Maybe with some potatoes and gravy..

Oh man. I'm all for blazing but seriously. As crazy as it sounds the first time I smoked pot was in 4th grade... but I didn't actually get stoned until 6th grade (in a car outside of the junior high across from my elementary school). Because that junior high was so fucked my parents sent me to a private school where there were like 20 kids in each class as opposed to one thousand. That's when I became a big stoner and ultimately started having panic attacks from shitty weed (laced or sprayed with something) alongside the stress a school that's whole goal was to get kids into really good colleges. The school was too small all of the faculty had their eyes on every single kid & knew what was up - it tripped me out.

Ultimately, three years later it led me to go back to public school in a different district so if I got so crazily stoned no one would realize; I'd be just another number in the police state.

It's all gravy now, I could smoke a bowl, drop E, some acid and a fifth of jack daniels and be smooth (not that I'd actually want to do that) but seriously, weed has the potential to fuck up a youngins mind or at least lead them astray. Not that I think it led me astray but I think the possibility is there. Now that my stoner years (wake & bake - go to art school) are behind me I smoke maybe a hit every once in a while, if I smoke much more I get panicy. I'm down to one hit as opposed to five bowlfuls... if it weren't for being a stoner at one point I probably wouldn't drink at least 3-5 to 15 beverages a day haha! It began a brutal cycle. Either mixing, or smoking a lot of weed, or drinking a lot of alcohol. They say everything with moderation, yeah sure, but addictions are more difficult to moderate!

Who even knows what effect pot could have on a baby's mind!! Sheesh!
