Thickening Agent

I thickened this pot of chili-like substance with mashed pork-and-beans. The sweetness works well with the green chili powder from New Mexico. God-damn it is hot. A heaping tablespoon was probably too much. I lean toward too much, a natural inclination, not enough never really appealed to me. The Doors Of Perception, been there, done that. I have to laugh, remembering Harvey, he could have been a great janitor. He'd aced all the course-work, mopped an Overlapping Course that though conservative was effective. The top of his class. I view the stress as merely interesting, I think he took it more personally.
