Binges on Velveeta and Ritz crackers.

Vraiment. When a cheese-eating surrender monkey becomes a process cheese food-eating surrender monkey, mon dieu! All is lost!

Col. Mustard was seen leaving the dining room with a candlestick.

It doesn't apply if you're not a snobby chef. :)

BTW, Kraft also makes a cheese spread called 'Old English' that's even better on Ritz than Velveeta, though it's more expensive.

Not a candidate for the "Iron Chef" competition I guess.

“I am sure that Bernard was very affected by the loss of these two points. We should not allow ourselves to be manipulated like that – I give you a star, I take one away,” Bocuse said. “These critics are like eunuchs: They know what to do but they can’t do it.”

He added: “The profession is going to react.”

One wonders if the critics will....errrrrrrrr....give in.

there are only so many ways to prepare penguin.

Quite simple, actually. You just sit him down and quietly explain that it's nothing personal.

He added: "The profession is going to react".

Oh sure, and REACT HOW may I ask? That's Right,you'll do nothing. It's too bad he couldn't learn the lesson I learned in High School: "What other people think of you is none of your business".( that's true whether you're world renowned cook or not) Those words allowed me to develop a sturdy spine and changed my entire life. What a selfish S.O.B. too, leaving his wife to deal with everything.

The French have rifles???

Of course they have rifles. If all else fails, they can use the rifles to shoot themselves in the foot to avoid having to put on a uniform and go fight.

Can we convince Baldwin and Streisand to DO IT, if they tank in the reviews?

Somebody send a rifle to Madonna

Frog legs taste like chicken. Or rattlesnake, which tastes like chicken, too.
I am assuming, and hoping, that you are referring to the small amphibious version of frog.

Even the French fries at Applebees aren't as good as they used to be

Stick to their chicken wings. You know you can get them with the new "bay seasoning" now.

Actually, wise-ass, I have had a first cousin kill himself because of his inability to come to grips with his homosexuality and my Uncle's complete rejection of that life choice. Guess what, I think what he did was STUPID TOO. There are too many options in the world today to get help and most of the time learning to tell the world to "piss-off" would do.

Where did I say I was happy the guy died? I stated it was a SILLY reason to kill oneself as if there is ever a good one. My commentary about Hollywierd "stars" was meant as a metaphorical commentary on the political stance of pundits of the big screen.

Hope the air is not to thin up in the moral pillar you've placed yourself on?
