I think you seem to be the only one acting the part of snotty b****
here, Shelly. For the life of me, I can't figure out how someone
thinks that what you did is funny, let alone sending the guy an email
to let him know you're bored and juvenile enoughto to not only troll,
but admit it and be proud of it. That's a shame, too, because I liked
your art. I spent some time getting the food links together for you,
so at least I hope you can make use of those. Now, maybe we should
all just step back and forget it. I think you might enjoy hanging out
here once in a while if you'd give it a chance. Might learn something
too - I have.

i've never met such rude people in all my life! and to blame poor Sarah
is must plain mean. you owe her an apology.

now you're starting to sound kooky. Otto was the one who e-mailed that
porn to me, not the other way around.

thank you. it's not mine, but i'll tell my daughter you liked it.

actually, i *am* looking for a good vegetarian recipe for black-eyed
peas. a friend of mine made them in a sort of stir-fry, mixed with
cabbage and onions, and it was really good.

At least one or two of the links were vegetarian, I think. That's
clever - vegetarian black-eyed peas.

i live in the land of meat, where most people cook black-eyed peas with
sausage. ugh. and, you'd be surprised at what passes for vegetarian.
i can't count the number of times i've been told "it's veggie" when "it"
*clearly* has chicken and/or chicken broth in it.

Pizza was served at a recent working lunch with a visiting Indian
engineer. There was a vegetarian pizza available, but the Indian
engineer declared that the chicken on the BBQ chicken pizza was not meat.

Go fibure.

I'm a contractor. If you want an opinion, I'll sell you one.
Which one do you want?

Every year the orthodox owners of the furniture factory where I worked
after I got out of college took the office staff to a local restaurant
for Christmas dinner.

Every year the wife of the owner ordered lobster.

I'm not sure what the deal was. Part of me thinks it was a feeling of,
"nothing I eat here is kosher, so I might as well go all the way",
another part wonders if you celebrate a Christian holiday with a bunch
of unbelievers if suddenly lobster is kosher.

All of us have our little inconsistencies.

The restaurant's bread was very good..... at least it fit the usual
definition of good restaurant bread. It was freshly heated on premises....

I did?! Are you SURE?! I don't remember sending
you porn. I must have a virus or something.

I hope she didn't put my porn on the internet. Some
of that is personal. Please delete it.

Sorry Sarah. Now that explains what she meant by "blaming" you - that
was confusing. Got my followups confused.

No, that's obviously a missspelling of "blamming", as we here in a.r.k. live
in fear of inadvertent punning.
