    Title: Purple Jesus Punch

    I can see that drink's earned its name. Looks like something someone would whip up for a weekend party when I was in basic training.

    I've been to the ER three times in a week and a half. Recovering from flu and a nasty viral lower respiratory infection so I am behind on everything.

    Not to mention one of my jerk neighbors rammed their car into my access ramp and completely destroyed it. I called the cops Friday night and filed a report. Tuesday is not going to be a happy day for my landlord.

    I made and served it at a house party I threw back in the 70s. I had a
    table full of food and other beverages (beer, wine, soda, etc.) on offer.
    But, the punch proved to be the hit of the party. End result was one
    divorce, several new "hook ups" and a female Rabbit Sherrif (game warden) running topless down my street. Fortunately many of the neighbours were
    at the party so no one called the nabs.

    I've been to the ER three times in a week and a half. Recovering from
    flu and a nasty viral lower respiratory infection so I am behind on everything.

    I know the words to that song. Things are just beginning to get back to
    what passes for normal at my house after my round of visits to hospital.

    Not to mention one of my jerk neighbors rammed their car into my access ramp and completely destroyed it. I called the cops Friday night and filed a report. Tuesday is not going to be a happy day for my
    landlord.

    Is their insurance going to repair/replace the ramp? I dunno what the
    law is in your state - but it my state if you drive without insurance
    coverage and have an accident things will be painful for your wallet
    until you've paid the damages out of your own pocket and bought special
    SR-22 liability insurance. The SR-22 insurance is also required if you
    get pulled over by the nabs and con't produce proof of insurance.

    Title: Rotisserie Beef Roast
    Categories: Beef, Marinades, Rubs, Chilies, Citrus
    Yield: 10 Servings

    4 lb Beef rump roast

    MMMMM--------------------------MARINADE-------------------------------
    2 tb Honey
    2 tb Soy sauce
    1/2 tb Tabasco sauce
    1/4 c Lime juice
    1 ts Ground cumin
    2 tb Oyster sauce; opt

    MMMMM----------------------------RUB---------------------------------
    6 Parts chilli spice (I use
    - Baron's Dark)
    6 Parts paprika (sweet)
    3 Parts ground coriander
    3 Parts garlic granules
    3 Parts onion granules
    3 Parts salt
    2 Parts ground cumin
    1 Part cayenne pepper
    1 Part crushed red pepper
    1 Part black pepper
    1 Part dried leaf oregano

    Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an
    airtight jar or container.

    Pierce beef roast numerous times with a fork. Combine
    marinade ingredients in shallow container or resealable
    freezer bag, reserving 2 tbsp of the marinade for
    basting roast while barbecuing.

    Marinate roast 12-24 hours in refrigerator. Discard
    used marinade.

    Remove roast from marinade bag and use rub to make a
    paste crust. This will be mess so wear gloves if you
    wish. Don't get any on your shirt as it will stain.

    Preheat grill to medium heat.

    Insert meat thermometer into center of beef roast.

    Cook on rotisserie over drip pan in closed grill over
    INDIRECT HEAT for about 1 1/2 hours (rare = internal
    temp of 120øF/49øC or medium = internal temp of 140øF
    /60øC).

    Pass unused marinade as a sauce at table.
