Alex,

Power tools and fish? Well, add a dash of vermouth and just the right condiments and I could conger up a delightful
coq au vin.

Reminds me of a fellow who, years ago, wrote a book called "How to Build Monstrosities By Tooth and Nail." A most efficient, time and motion study kind of guy, although probably not warm and fuzzy such as yourself, his piece de resistance was to place a stick of dynamite into a raw turkey and light it, thereby cooking it, carving it and serving it--all in one deft and easy maneuver--something never proposed by Heloise.

He had other interesting culinary suggestions, as well, such as cooking a fine stew of roadkill on an automobile's transmission, whilst traveling across country, and dishwasher-poached fish and meats, which was a concept way ahead of its time, considering the scarcity of automatic dishwashers in those days (late 1950s and early 1960s).

The thought alone must make poor Bleonard squirm, cringe, and try to hide.
