Thief. I give money to support PBS, you should give money to me. In fact, if you subscribe as apatron of the CBC at the 90 dollar pledge level, I'll be happy to send along a premium; A signed copy of "Coop: The early postings, musings, wiiticisms and obervations from Maple Ridge's fouth favourite son." (Walker, Moore and Neely slotting above him.) I'll be ceratin to include you pledge along with my tax remiottance to help offset the burden to our tax base caused by people overusing the medical system after gouging their ears after some particularly idiotic Don Cherry spot. I'd much rather pay you, or even CBC, but instead I have to pay the Comcast people $40 bucks a month to have 72 channels of crap.

And no one here called him an idiot or said he sucked. Those were your words, not mine. Hmm, that's an interesting statement coming at a time when some of the best restaurants are opening in New York and the SPAC is most probably dropping the NYCBallet, a mainstay of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center since it opened in 1966, after this summer in favour of rock concerts. And if all of us are eating and, like Bruni, with an eye to learning and understanding more about what we're eating, shouldn't a restaurant review hold even more weight than a review of an opera, a gallery or a ballet? Who do you think was a more important at The Times, Anna Kisselgoff or Ruth Reichl? Whose column do you think was more widely read? Right those were my words, and I wasn't implying (infering?) that you said them. Anyway, you're right. We could all use a deep breathing excercise or two. But at least I didn't say "hey, it's just food. What are you asll getting so worked up about?" Heh heh.

you know, I've never waffle housed before, for a couple of reasons. One, there aren't any in Michigan. 2, my wife thinks they all look dirty. 3, I can never remember how I want to order the HB. Can I just say I want them with everything you can possilby do to them, or will that just get me a wierd look? To address your points: 1--Good to know. I'll never drive through Michigan. 2--That's the point. 3--I can guarantee that, even though we've never met and I know nothing about you, you will be the least weird person in Waffle House no matter what you do or how you act. Jamie EDIT: clarity I appreciate that. More so than you know. Excuse me, but it's time for my medication now. Nurse Ratched?

I guess it's a good thing I don't mind asking the dopey questions, but what IS the political situation in Finland?

One of the things I love about living in Metro Detroit is our access to CBC. Not only do my kids love the kids programming (even if Patti gives me a headache), but we get hockey the way God and Canada intended. Go Wings!

We talk about anything at the dinner table. We limit discussion on video/computer games to under 5 minutes, but other than that, anything goes. When i was a kid, anything went as well. Which lead to some interesting conversation when my brother worked in the morgue, or when my dad the proctologist had an interesting case that day. And no, gerbils were never brought up.

I don't know anything about restuarants in Beruit. Nothing. Zip. Nada. I withdraw from the discussion with this: Good Luck. I hope it works.

that was my question. thanks for the answer.

Calgary, Vancouver, what's the difference? The Red Wings are just going to steam roll over either one.

it worked on me.

Oh good. Yet another product targeted toward moms. I swear these companies assume that our brains fall out after we have the baby and they can sell us anything. well, at least they aim stuff at you. No one ever aims stuff at Dads. Except life insurance. You see stuff aimed at men all the time, but not dads.

i think comparing opera to food just confuses both issues.

what is it my mom always says? oh yeah, Don't judge a book by it's cover. This guy might be the greatest food writer of all time. He may know more about restaurants than you ( I know, hard to believe, isn't it?) Or he might suck. But I think you might want to wait until he has written a column before you decide that he sucks and he's an idiot.

can I ask a question? And I'm sorry if this sounds stupid, but are you typing in english or in Spanish? and do you see this forum in english or spanish? thanks!

Wilbur!

we do that toffee thing with matzo during Passover. Very yummy.

Not that I think eating at Dairy Queen is bad, or anything, but I stopped by DQ on my way back to the office this afternoon. I'd seen those ads touting the cheesequake blizzards, and I couldn't resist any longer. I walked in the door, stomach set on the strawberry, and I found out they have toffee as well. Hmmm says I. To the pretty young thing behind the counter I asked if I could mix the the flavors. Sure, she said perkily. So, I got a strawberry toffee cheesequake blizzard. It was great. I reccomend it highly.

that's not a bad one, but my all time Taco Bell fav is the frito burrito. Remember? the burrito with the fritos inside? And they stayed crunchy? It was wonderful.

you say that like it's a bad thing.

I can't discuss it, sorry. hey, how come my e-mail isn't working anymore? I can't get a dial tone on my phone. Who are you guys? OH MY GOD! I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN

can you imagine walking into that sale? you need what? sure, we got those. I'm sorry, we must have a bad connection. That was 50, right? No, 50 million? This is a joke, right?

ww had an after work thing last night at Chili's. We ordered a slew of appetizers, including their version of the blooming onion. Got part way through, and realized that we were now eating raw onion, and uncooked batter. eeewwww.

reverse engineered ketchup? they did that out at Area 51, right?

that's just stupid. Is business really that bad? Do they really think it's going to help?

Mrs. C wrote a cookbook? Does Howard know about this?
