=======================
Aloha Michael!

->  HN> Anne has found that beets give her hives...so guess
->  HN> what...no beet salads here! Cheese or no...although
-> 
-> I thought bees gave people hives.
-> 
No, bee's give people honey...they live
in Hives (which is NOT a suburb of
Boston!)..they've been also known
to give people a sting...and the sting
can sometimes give you a hive of your own!

->  HN> we do have some crumbled goat cheese in the
->  HN> fridge, along with some REALLLY good blue!
->  HN> Does Blue cheese count as blue food?
-> 
-> That stomach-turning topic has come up here in the echo.
-> I have on various occasions manfully tried blue cheese
-> when it's been really and notably blue, not just like
-> it'd been doused with blue-black ink. I've whimpered
-> like a child as it has assaulted my tongue, making me
-> want to wrench it out of its socket.
-> 
I did not like it at all as a kid...not that 
we had many exposures to it...as an 
adult, I "discovered" it at somepoint and 
have lusted after it ever since!  What we 
have in the Fridge at this point is particularly
pungent and strong...last night when I got home
from a non baseball event (got out at 12:30 am)
I had a hambuger patty with a nice slice of the 
blue melting across the top...I liked it enough for
seconds...but was smart enough to settle for 
what was at hand!

->  HN> it...dill, I like dill pickles a LOT, I like dill in
->  HN> my potato salad, and a bit of dill on salmon.
-> 
-> I do like dill pickles, but that's usually dill seed, not
-> dill weed. I don't favor potato salad at all. And, as I
-> said, salmon shouldn't be messed with. 
-> 
I've never made dill pickles with dill seed...always
with sprigs of fresh dill.  I like dill pickled eggs too.
In fact there are few ways I've had dill that I have
not enjoyed. I even had dill pickled sausages once!

->  -> Some of those games are satisfying even if the good
->  -> guys don't win in the end.
->  HN> Yep, we had one of those with detroit...we lost
->  HN> in the 15th! Glad I wasn't working that one!
-> 
-> Last night we had a triple play reversed in our favor
-> (replays showed that the reversal was correct), and
-> what was then around a 7-5 game ended up being 18-5.
-> 
Were you the 18 or the 5?

->  HN> More like he's "mister within reach" or "mister right now"
-> 
-> She told me that she hadn't gone with anyone for a decade
-> before finding me. It wouldn't surprise me one way or the
-> other.
-> 
->  HN> Her cousin's wife seems to be a pretty good egg though
->  HN> and was very helpful in the media center for the festival.
-> 
-> Oh, Sharman is a good egg, just slightly addled.
-> 
.....only.........slightly???

-> = =
-> 
->  HN> How'd your solo go?
-> 
-> People liked it. Except that someone said that the miking
-> was loud enough to be heard all the way to Peabody and made
-> me sound like something between Sarah Brightman's voice and
-> an air-raid siren.
-> 
YIPES! Sarah B scares me!!

->  ->  HN> I thought that's what I said? (Grin)
->  -> But I said it in the first or second post of the thread.
->  HN> Well I like that, we can both be right! (grin)!
-> 
-> The best kind of resolution.
-> 
My very favorite!

->  HN> Ugh! Got up to 81 here today, not too bad, the
->  HN> humidity hasn't been too high so it's rather bearable.
-> 
-> Even worse now, but then I'm in Washington again, so
-> that's to be expected.
-> 
-> It's the humidity that has made my buns sticky, I swear.
-> 
Now that's just wrong....on so many levels! (grin)
Worked at the Safe last night for a "non Baseball" 
event...a party for the people of the company that 
makes Bobbleheads....I'll only say this...The budget
for the party was probably about 1.5-2 MILLION! 
They flew in a band from Vegas, had a casino on 
the main concorse (craps, blackjack, Roulette, 
and other games) Circus performers (Cirque du 
Soleil I think), pretty bimbettes (about a dozen 
of them) doing the "Cigars, Cigarettes, candy?" 
bit...but with peanuts, popcorn and crackerjacks
all relabled and packaged with the company's 
logos...and temorary tattoos. and 7 free bars 
set up on the main concourse, a VIP party in
the visitor's locker room, and another VI-VIP
one in the Diamond Club. and more food than
the 600 could eat! When they entered the ballpark
they had to surrender their car keys, and when 
they left, they had to pass a breathalyzer test
to get them back...if they failed, they got a 
voucher for the Silver cloud hotel witch is 
right across the street from the ball park!
OR they got a cab voucher and dozens 
of cab's were lined up waiting to pick up
the fares. Plus there were giveaways to 
many throughout the evening, cruises, 
vacations to the Bahama's, trips to NYC, 
and much much more! 
I got stuck working right where the 
bimbettes assembled...more silicone there
than .....well, lets just say NONE of these
girls will EVER drown!
chat with you soon!
