We are very good at this and usually done in good sport! Great stuff, isn't it?

That's embarassing...a WOP who forgot they are called CLOVES. Thanks, WMJ.

I don't know. My situation with a lunch group is different. There are 4 of us that go out and this Italian/pizza/Greek joint is specifically for us to get real crass, complain about work and be politically incorrect (one of the lunch bunch is a girl and she just laughs hysterically...chicks who let guys be guys without castrating you are the way it should be). At any rate, when one bails, they do it AHEAD of time. Sometimes it's at the last minute, "Hey, I'm gonna run some errands" but you know. A few times the whole event has fallen apart, but at least you knew. That was kind of uncool. I assume you are street smart enough by now that you can decipher whether the apology is sincere and whether it will happen again. Well, was it SINCERE or is it a MIND F*C*? What you should do is let the other lunch people set up the logistics and you ride along with them. That's safer than getting into that kind of B.S.

I just saw this. Sheez! You need therapy! But we wouldn't have you any other way!

Do you like the actual bulbs of garlic in a pizza or any other dish for that matter? Garlic is good and good for you, but when it comes in big chunks, yuck!

Yours has a nicer cabin roofline than does the bulbuous one presented by PM. This could be a nice car. Will it be 2.2 Ecotec powered? I couldn't imagine otherwise!

Yeah, we know YOU LOVE where you live! Had to rub it in.

Is suburban Denver that much cheaper than PDX? The only issue I have is that it's too far from water.

I don't TOUCH Indian food, the mere smell of it makes me gag...call me narrow minded, but sometimes I envision a cobra slithering through a kitchen and it makes it into my food. I also resent how something that is meant to be Italian has $h! like pineapples/Canadian bacon on it. That pisses me off. I don't mind some Greeking up of the pizza, though - that would be the feta cheese but so many of the things that are Greek at heart (olives, etc) are also somewhat Italianate.I only like THIN crust pizza. That would be Neapolitan. Sicilian pizza is too bread-like. Most chains suck big time. However, one in CA/NV called Z-Pizza is very good. Favorite ingredients: mushrooms, pepperoni, olives, spinach and artichokes. PB, is your concoction of the thin crust variety?

I'm laughing. Big contrast. Phoenix: bone dry. San Antonio: humid. Either way, they are warmer. I'm also laughing because I'm a Northeasterner at heart, even though we barely lived there one year. A co-worker from L.I. keeps telling me I remind him of all the Italians he left behind on "the Island" -- impatient, talks fast and complains a lot. My answer to the question: NO, I don't like where I live. I am only sticking around to finish an evening Masters to be completed in May 2007. 11 months to go. I am currently in ATL and was in FLL last week - in addition to vacationing, I am here to see if I want to move back. The reason: housing. It's a tough decision. South Florida: proximity to water, more of a Calif. "look," very multicultural, but flat as a pancake. Atlanta: gorgeous vegetation, has become a "world class" city, love those brick homes but a little far from water. I will relocate. I just have to figure it out.

Wasn't Neon on an earlier poll list for a white trash car? I just thought of one that raises the bar for white trashdom: Kia Sephia. Not good.

Act polished on your birthday! Happy birthday!

Damn, the world is SMALL. Didn't know you lived in Montgomery AL.I just drove from Pensacola FL to Atlanta this morning and passed right through...I was amazed at the mid 70s weather with fairly low humidity compared to what I've encountered in the Southeast! Cheers!

I'm sure a couple of people can find my myopia irritating: W-body GM cars 3800 V6 engine Dislike for the Pacific Northwest and the LOCALS Love of California and Florida 747s Travel plans Saying things in different languages Correcting other people's spelling mistakes But, you know what? I don't give a $h! because that's who I am!

THREE WORDS:BOB'S BIG BOY preferably the original one in Burbank I LOVE that place. Ate there almost EVERY day of my college experience. The combo with extra bleu cheese for the fries.

Hey, Enz, I know the hair thing can be way-cool but the haircut looks good. I traded in Greg Brady for shorter hair and it's just EASIER.
