"Five dollar footlong is one of the best songs," Artest said. "That's a hot song. You've got the freecreditreport.com, and then five dollar footlong comes on. When five dollar footlong comes on, they should play that in the club. They should play all those in the club."

from DTMTE

Exiles was a Marvel release which ran for at least 100 issues, yet in many ways had little impact on the less of the Marvel universe. Essentially it was a combination of the old Marvel What If? stories and the Excalibur v.1 story, the Cross-Time Caper. The Exiles are grouped by an entity called the Timebroker (or so they are told) and are comprised of various characters both new and old, often from various Earths.

There is not always much to do with Earth-616 (the regular Marvel universe), but this can be a good thing. Too often comics from DC & Marvel try to put their particular character or team at the center of everything which is going on; this can get tiresome. Exiles started a few years back so most of it is free from the non-stop tie-ins like House of M, Civil War, Annihilation Saga, and Secret Invasion in just the past few years.

Tupperware Party II: The Burping

WELSH RAREBIT

1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. flour
1/2 tspn. salt
1/4 tspn. pepper
1/4 tspn. dry mustard
1/4 tspn. Worcestershire
1 c. milk
1/2 c. beer
2 c. shredded cheese, or ~8 oz. (usually Cheddar)
toast toast toast

Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Blend in flour and all seasonings, including Worcestershire. Cook until smooth & bubbly. Remove from heat and stir in milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly to avoid burning. Boil & stir for one minute.

Gradually add beer to sauce mixture. Turn to low heat, and stir in cheese. Here the cookbook, a Betty Crocker number from 1969, points out to stir cheese until melted. It's a good idea.

Of course you can season this up however you like and play with the beer/cheese combinations. At this point you serve over toast.

Or tonight, I dipped jicama in it, which makes it a Mexican jackrabbit, I suppose. Some people add paprika as a garnish, but we are all adults here and can adjust seasonings all by our lonesome.
