Hi Ruth,

Or makes me throw them, for that matter. It's not a sport I'd do well
in, if I were a guy. The Raleigh paper had a piece in the Op-Ed section
recently, a piece written by someone who had come to the USA some years
ago trying to explain football to a visiting relative. It was funny, but
pointed out the incomprehensibilities of the game.

Would they be able to catch a tidbit dropped from the table?

Could be. (G)

 RH> Classic dog.

He liked a lot of people food, with the exception of things like lettuce
and green peas. Sometimes we were surprised he ate what he did.

 RH> Best way to do cast iron.

The one pan ended up biting the dust, should have left well enough alone
and retired it. It's now replaced, and we're trying to break in a new
10" pan. Going to be a while before it's as seasoned as the other was.

Understandable, but I've got the choice so I usually go for the gluten.

I've been grabbing it as a quick source of protein most mornings to
balance the carb intake.
