I wouldn't respond if you did; posting in Hell is below my dignity.
Besides, you are not talking to me here. No one is.

Had our so called administrator bothered to check with me first, I would have been pleased to inform him that

is, and always will be, heretical. Of course, I have no desire to be overly harsh so I want you readers to understand that heretical here is used in only its technical sense. There is nothing in our teachings that says that

leads to eternal damnation, although a good long period in Purgatory is probably merited. Fortunately, Mr. Cresswell has already served a good long time in Purgatory, so he has little to worry about in this instance.

As to Evensong not understanding what Alan meant with

I can only say that sometimes the less said, the better.

Try to be patient with your life's turns, Suite-ee.
Perhaps someday, while you are sitting on a beach reading People Magazine a bird will fly into a hydro wire above you, and fall, deep-fried, upon your head.
You will then be able to sue the utility company and your city for $750,000, collect, and sit around writing fantasy stories no one will read.
Life will be perfect for you then, no?

(By the way, I didn't make this scenario up; it actually happened in the Greater Toronto Area recently; the city reached a full settlement with the woman, and is now suing the publically-owned utility company to recover costs!)

The more you post, the closer they come to cracking. Now's your chance to shine, hon!

Being the self-effacing servant leader in Christ that I am (clothed in perfect humility) - I thought I'd let others have a go this time.

It's amazing what the least of them can achieve when you give them a chance.

And who knew they would all start talking with capitals like Georgette Heyer.

I have to admit, I mostly categorize all of you by which condiment I think you would taste best with.

Anything to hide the bitterness.

You know, that was meant to be a word play on the four tastes and a quick quip. After just rereading it, it failed dismally. Even knowing the intent. Sorry.

I think I'm growing spiritually because I just deleted my two word response.

Thanks bud.

It was "Miracle Whip", wasn't it?

Balderdash.

Posted by Pyx_e (# 57) on :

Well we know what RooK would eat PATDYS with.

Balderdash : possibly from the early English drink of wine mixed with beer or water or other substances that was sold cheaply.

Really? Good to know.

A surprising number of threads seem to develop into discussions of the best way to eat Shipmates.

So you are saying that RooK on his own is in fact rather bland?

No, rather that you could smother RooK in chili sauce and RooK would still be there.

Personally I would be offended by Comet that it was not green chili. Everybody with any taste knows New Mexican Green is much much better than New Mexican Red.

This would be the most perfect -- tenderize and mesmerize, so I wouldn't feel a thing. [Cool]

Seriously, that made my day. I'm on something of a horseradish kick lately. Been putting it on sandwiches a lot.

I'm offended that you don't know it's chile not chili. Many people prefer both and call it "Christmas".

Chocolate sauce. Good on anything.

If lack of spelling ability offends you then you probably should spell the offender's name correctly. And by the way many people have no taste.
