Have fun nuking lunch. Your comments made me remember my maternal grandmother. She cooked lunch daily for my uncle and cousin (they work in the family-owned glass shop next to her home.) And it was a hot lunch (meat, potatoes, salad, rolls, and a dessert.) She made lunch for them right up until six months before she died last year at age 96. Even when she was so sick in bed, and my mom was taking care of her, my grandma would say "Have the boys had lunch yet?" And my mom would answer "yes, they've gone to Burger King."

Fox News has a news alert up....it seems the Iraqi VP says "that a country may use all means necessary to defend itself..."

They don't want to go in that direction.

they've gone to Burger King.

No disrespect intended,,,, but sending them to Burger King may have been the last straw for your Grandmother. No self respecting Granny would allow her tribe to eat in town.

Having said this,,,, you need to know I have absolutely no respect for myself, I often leave a note and tell them to go to town to eat (no Burger King there,,,, population 900). There a c/store with sandwiches in saran wrap, pizza boats, and some other stuff that looks like it was made by Fisher Price for use in the little plastic resturant.
