Got it
i see no point to work at acquiring a taste for something if it doesn’t appeal. xsteen is funny, her friends have gotten on her, wanting her to try sushi, go to an Ethiopian restaurant to eat etc. She told them listen, i am not 5 yo, and you are NOT my mother, that ship has sailed and no one is going to tell me what i need to eat/not eat!
I’ve seen parent give them to small children. In Church, even!
You don’t really think “food” when you hear “Ethipoia,” do ya? Quite the opposite.
that is in fact what i told her to tell them, i said there’s a reason people in Ethiopia are starving, it’s because their food tastes like CRAP!
am i just a malcontent? xsbrownie’s school is having a race against global hunger, she is supposed to get pledges etc. and they are going to run. i am opposed to this because there is hunger in the US and i am pretty much against global anything.
Now you've gone and done it.
The FDA is on General Mills, now you'll have the DEA raiding Churhces.
Not like that has never happened before.
Just pitch a couple bucks in. America has the fatest poor people in history.
They sublet that activity to the ATF.
It was a stable monarchy full of nonstarving people for roughly 2,000 years. it took the Communists in the 60's to screw that up.
According to my husband, calamari is a waste of good bait!
Good morning all.
LOL. Creative.
The "use tax" law Massachusetts cites is more than forty years old and has never been interpreted in this manner before. The onus has been on Massachusetts taxpayers, rather than out-of-state merchants, to remit the "use" tax. New Hampshire vendors, then, could not have foreseen the new interpretation of this old law.
WRONG..............
That "onus" ended with the concept that out-of-state merchants were required to remit to other states the names and addresses of their residents who purchased tobacco products out of their state of residence.
Any retailer who did not see this coming has not been paying attention.
Smokers have been warning everyone for years that it would not stop with tobacco but have been laughed at because so many people hate smokers. I hate to say it --- but we told you so.
The difference between us who have been issuing the warnings and those who have always been gleeful about what happens to tobacco users is that WE are not gloating.
That opinion doesn't surprise me, considering you eschew Chinatown in favor of chain food restaurants for "Chinese" food.
And only as a VERY small part at that.
I ate at an Ethiopian restaurant in Alexandria once called the Red Sea. It was pretty crappy. Afghan food is like that, too.
Indian food, OTOH is yummy. There’s a new Indian restaurant opening in town next week.
Lucky you. I really miss good Indian food.
Not everyone lives by the seashore. Fried frozen fish and seafood are often the economical way. Sure, nothing compares to real fresh seafood, but fried is peoples first exposure.
