Sauce Will Thicken as it Stands

AS a old bachelor, I cook allot of dinner mixes. You know like helpers. One of the most frustrating things to me is the phrase: "Remove from heat, uncover, sauce will thicken as it stands" I am a guy, I am impatient, when the stuff is done, I want to eat, not when" "The sauce thickens", NOW!!! I mean these boxed dinners are supposed to be fast, right? Where is the convenience, where is the quick meal?
I don't like that phrase, it makes me mad, at times. Have you ever read the ten commandments? The whole thing, you know: "Thou shalt, and thou shalt not's"?
I heard an ad on the History Chanel or one of those channels, that they say there were actually over 300 commandments that Moses brought down from the mountain talk with God, but only 10 made it to the bible. I don't believe that for one minute, but it doesn't matter, those 10 cover everything. But do we live by them all the time, are like me, do you skip the "Sauce will Thicken as it Stands part?'
For you review here are the 10: 1: You shall have no other gods before me. (those gods can be anything, as long as you put them over God.)2:You shall not make for yourself a carved image or any likeness of anything that is not in Heaven above, or in the Earth beneath, or is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. 3:You shall not take the name of the Lord your
god in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. 4:Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. (Basically rest on Sunday, praise Him that we serve)5:Honor your Mother and Father , because if you do, your days may be long. 6: Do not commit murder 7:Don't commit adultery. 8 Don't Steal 9 Don't bear false witness to your neighbor, (Don't lie)And 10: Don't covet your neighbors house, wife, female or male servant, or his ox or his donkey or anything he has. (you know like: " The one with the most toys wins". Here are the ten again in easy to understand language.: One: Make God Number one Two: Don't serve anything that is not of God Three: Don't get mad and use God's name as in cussing Four: Go to church on Sunday Five: Honor your Mom and Dad (Respect them) Six: Don't Kill Seven: Don't "Sleep Around" with someone Else's wife. Eight: Don't steal Nine:Don't lie and Ten: Don't look at your neighbors stuff or wife or children and wish you could have them.


OK that is all for today, I have to go see if the sauce has thickened on my lunch yet.
