Monoclinic 39 Posted June 8, 2007 Cheese Whiz, click and face your fears Monoclinic. Thank-you, I shall add it to my list of things not to try! Like it is ever going to be used as a dip for broccoli. Anyone knowing what broccoli is would not think twice about putting that gunk in their gob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monoclinic 39 Posted June 9, 2007 Like it is ever going to be used as a dip for broccoli. Anyone knowing what broccoli is would not think twice about putting that gunk in their gob. Broccoli stops cancer cold, Maggie. You should think twice about not eating your vegetables. Or should I call you Mark? Sorry, I thought by using the word gunk it would be obvious that I was implying the processed cheese in a jar with a picture of a floret of broccoli on the label. Apparently that was too big an assumption to make. My main concern had been hitting the the wrong reply to button, maybe I should have been more worried about making my opinion understood. Hence I will clarify my position for you Barbara and anyone else who did not understand my post. I was assuming that most people with an ounce (that's 28.35 grammes for our metric friends) of knowledge, like yourself Barbara, on the anti-cancer properties of the active compounds could well fear that dipping a nice crunchy green bit of broccoli, brimming with manganese, tryptophan and vitimins C & K, into a jar of 2,2'-dichlorodiethyl sulfide gunkate might negate its aforementioned properties. Last time I looked cheese whiz was listed as neither one of the major food groups nor an essential micronutrient. I could be wrong. if so I will stand corrected. Do you now understand me Barbara?

maryportfuncity 10,641 Posted June 9, 2007 Ed Yost Telegraph obit. Yeah, I know we've already mentioned him, good obit mind, no-body does 'em like the Telegraph. I particularly like this understated little paragraph: Yost was rather surprised when, in the middle of proceedings, the elderly mayor took him to the gents in order to display the balloons which he had had tattooed on his buttocks.

Brinsworth House Baiter 12 Posted June 10, 2007 The interesting thing about that wiki link is the bit that lists the chart positions of her two singles around the world. She's had number ones in Thailand, Belgium, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and Singapore. These crazy foreigners, eh? sh*t taste in music or stronger drugs than us? Discuss.

Banshees Scream 110 Posted June 10, 2007 These crazy foreigners, eh? sh*t taste in music or stronger drugs than us? Discuss. Well the movement in the music business today really has a very unclear direction. In the United States it was Rap, and that Hip Hop scene starting circa 1993, then came all those echo-hair died-school boy bands that I personally hated and dissed at every chance I could get, and they only appealed to high school girls who were born much to late to understand what real music was. If Paris Hilton made music regardless, it was probably laughing stock. The producers in the studio were probably cracking up listening to her voice. Now I don't exactly know the legalization of all drugs in these countries, but Paris Hilton is such a bad influence and just so used - to be perfectly honest I would rather have like Kate Hudson or even Jenifer Lopez over her, talking moderately (I didn't say Jolie) All those countries are crazy anyway. Probably many beautiful woman walking those streets that are ten times hotter then her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
