James,
what are you thinking, spitter?
Don't you know that I, after submitting one silly joke, was flamed by an
individual who had the guts to ask me if was going to submit recipes to this 
list.

Now, I had in mind to submit the following recipe, a mixture I've stirred up 
quite
frequently lately, just to prove a point.

Take some base coat,
add 100 % reducer  and a 1/4 cup of activator. Stir well.
Serve ice cold on the rocks.

However, my better half insisted that I act my age, so I did, until now.
I do report though that the painting of the spit is finished. It looks good.
