So, yeah, the Tangy Spicy Shrimp IS the Austin Super China recipe, but with a lot more broth and veggies. The way Austin Super China served it was just the shrimp on a bed of sliced onions. This recipe is more of shrimp in a broth.

BUT, if I don't eat the broth, and just the shrimp, it's exactly the same. I'm thinking Austin Super China cooks it in the broth/sauce, but then either (1) drains the broth from the shrimp serving itself or (2) uses the sliced onion to soak up the broth.

It's kind of expensive to not eat the broth this cooks in (it takes 20-some scallions!), but it IS the same dish....

I just finished ripping my DVD copy of Fail Safe to disk. This movie, man. This movie. This is one of the most engaging and stressful movies I've ever seen. As the movie goes on, every scene ends up just being a scene of deeper and deeper trauma of everyone involved and a terrible and unnecessary Catch-22.

My Linux screenwiritng program, Trelby, no longer works in Linux. But if I install the Windows version via WINE, it works fine. That just feels wrong.
