We celebrated our 30th last January. It doesn't seem like we could be that old. The last several times we have gone out to eat I noticed that I'm pretty well stuffed eating bread and an appetizer, before the entre even arrives. I guess that I get stuffed easily.

I think that you owe Mr. Dale Wisley an apology Trad-A-Non. Maybe in the future you should not speak of what you do not know. Maybe you should expand your vocabulary. (probably none of my concern, but I believe it needed to be said, no offense to anybody)

This gets my vote as one of the top context specific jokes of the year. Thanks, Stewy.

Happy Anniversary, Dale.

Oh yes. I was decked out in a powder blue tuxedo made from some petroleum product. No one thought it odd at the time.

Sorry to change change the topic.....(Congrats to Mr and Mrs Undisputed) but you're talk of foie gras kicks me back to our last vacation in Santa Fe, and my love affair with a torchon of foie gras on a crouton crisped in duck fat, with a Guiness and currant sauce. This was definitely good enough to to be served for dessert!

Anyone tell me what a torchon is?

Oh yeah....and we happened to be in Santa Fe for our 14th anniversary. We're starting to plan #15...back to the scene of the crime....Caneel Bay, St. John, USVI.

TY - torchon - a coarse bobbin or machine-made lace of fan-shaped designs forming a scalloped edge. From the Old French - torche - bundle of twisted straw.

My new word for the day - oppugn - to fight against or call into question. First time I saw it was today doing the cryptoquote in the paper.

Dale - OK guy, the avatar is beginning to scare me just a bit...find yourself jumping up on couches lately? worried about becoming a self-loathing psychologist or the like?
