EWWWWWWWWWWWW - I really didn't need the recipe!

[LadyX]

YOU had a horse named Grasshopper, TOO??!!!

Mine was a retired quarterhorse friends of ours gave me when I was 11 years old!

[blackie]

"You got a deal Cobby. hahaa..what fun that would be. A Freeper gathering after we move in Oregon."

I'm definitely up for that !!

We were on our way to a FReeper get together in Newport last year when I crashed and totaled the Bounder... I'll be more careful next time... :o)

[Billie]

I'm glad YOU'RE the one who asked it! LOL I think they may be, but as I said earlier, I have never seen them on any table where I've eaten.

And I would echo your YUCK!

[COB1]

"(But the riding the horse 3 miles for the mail was a TRUE story...)"

And the insinuation here is that we Texans might have a tendency to...uh.... exaggerate just a little?
NAAAWWWWW!!!

[SAMWolf]

What! That doesn't make your mouth just start watering?

[SassyMom]

There is actually a place in Coors Field that sells Rocky Mtn Oysters. If your seat is anywhere near this place you smell them cooking. It is soooooooo GROSS!!! But, there are a lot of people that like them. My sister is one of them although I think she eats them just gross me out. I guess she's getting even with me from when we were kids. hahaha

[Billie]

Those!

Magoo, she might be available to sing at the dance. :)

[SassyMom]

LOL.... Nope, kinda turns my stomach.....

[COB1]

Here's an oldie you might recognize:
"Big balls in Cowtown, we'll all go down,
Big balls in Cowtown, we'll dance around.
Put on yur new shoes, put on yur gown,
Big balls in Cowtown, we'll all go down."

Sounds a little better when I sing it than when I type it (I think!).

[Snow Bunny]

Look at these ants. wow Sam you are the best!!!

(big smile)

[SassyMom]

ROFLMAO...........I can't even think of a come back to that one I'm laughing so hard. LOL....

[COB1]

SAM, I'll bet they've never witnessed the castration of a boar hog, either!
LOL!
Remember when you had to hold the cord between your teeth?
LOLOL!

[SAMWolf]

Just thinking about them makes me cross my legs and skrunch over.

[COB1]

Okay!
We got a deal!
As soon as Snow Bunny and FallGuy move out there, we'll have a big Freeper get-together someplace in Oregon!
Can we make it in the spring?
I HATE snow chains!

[SassyMom]

LOL.... and sing soprano?????? :)

[SAMWolf]

Raised a city boy. I missed out on that particular pasttime.

[SAMWolf]

I don't even own chains. Just stay in the valley during the winter.

[COB1]

"Just thinking about them makes me cross my legs and skrunch over."

HAHA!!
Now that you've figured that out for me, I'll start typing with both hands again!
