2/22    Dear sodans, I need to grind some chinese herbs into powder form.
        They looks like roots and small wood chips. What type of
        machine can I use for this purpose? I am fairly certain a
        regular blender (I have one) will NOT work, as they are
        typically used with liquids and I need them dry. Is a Food
        Processor what I am looking for? (They are expensive but the
        blades are horizontal and seems like they would cut it into
        powder, are they strong enough to cut?) What about regular
        coffee grinders? I've never used one, how strong are they?
        They are much cheaper than food processors and if it works
        it'll be great... Thanks!
        \_ I've seen people use coffee grinders for this.  should be okay.
                \_ I agree. coffee beans are pretty hard, so it should
                   have no problem with your herbs.
        \_ Mortar and pestle
           \_ Oh this one looks funny.

12/4    Why are eastern european models so plentiful and hot?
        \_ By "models" do you mean cam stippers? I wonder that

4/23    I love greasy comfort food but as I'm approaching mid 30 I
        can't eat them anymore. Anyone else have the same problem?
        \_ 42 and still happily scarfing down the greasy comfort
           food, just not in the same quantities. It's a genetic
           thing.
        \_ 47 and eating greasy food, but not as much. McDonalds grosses
