8. "Have you ever cheated on a diet?"
7. "In the case of Gibson vs. Board of Education, do you think all
people should be entitled to actual food in their school lunches?"
6. "Sir, have you ever looked upon Rachael Ray with lust in
your heart?"

3. "Do you feel you can beat Justice Thomas’ record of 27 hot dogs

2. "Would you vote to overturn recent decisions on municipal
governments’ usage of Eminent Domain, even if you knew your local
city council was considering its usage to *finally* get a really
good Italian restaurant in your neighborhood?"

This Week's Wine Selection
==========================
Pillar Box Padthaway Red 2006 Price: $12
Pillar Box red is an opaque red/black color with a scarlet rim.
It displays aromas of sweet, ripe red berries, underpinned cinnamon
spice and dark chocolate. The palate is rich and fleshy with vibrant
raspberry and blackcurrant fruit intertwined with a citrus-like
cedary oak complexity. The tannins are full yet soft and supple,
combined with the gentle acidity to produce a lingering, harmonious
finish.
Serve With:
Jerk Pork
=========
1/4 cup allspice berries
1 1/2 inch piece of cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
6 scallions, including green tops, sliced
1 habanero pepper
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dark Jamaica rum
1 (4 pound) boned pork loin
Preheat the oven to 350F. Place the berries on a pie tin and roast
for 10 minutes. Pulverize them in a spice mill with the cinnamon and
nutmeg. Place the spice mixture in a food processor, fitted with a
metal blade. Add the scallions and chile. Season with salt and
pepper. Process until a paste is formed. Add the rum and mix well.
Rub the mixture all over the pork loin. Cover and allow to marinate
for at least 1 hour at room temperature.
Increase the oven temperature to 400F. Remove the meat and place in
a roasting pan, and roast for 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350F and
continue to roast for 1 1/2 hours, basting every 30 minutes. Remove
from the oven and rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
