PF are nuts! We best watch out, that recent study said people who are nuts are 20% less likely to die. Or was it people who ate... their... foot... with... a... ricoh...

My 2 cents

Welcome Steve. I did not know they let rookies into threads like this. Please do not judge the whole forum by this thread. Some parts of the forum actually do have a purpose..........

Well, I guess this thread has a purpose, we just don't know what it is yet.......

I thought it was shot their foot with a Ricoh. Or was it a Ricoh that shot their foot? Now I am even more confused..............

I'm picturing an enormous concrete foot in front of corporate HQ. With a RICOH label on the back, of course.

I had my usual Friday cheeseburger. (Without cheese, unfortunately. If I'd known the day would come that I couldn't have cheese, I would have eaten a LOT more when I could!)

On Friday I break all the rules. But only on Friday.

When it comes to what I should and shouldn't eat I only break the rules on days that end in y.

Paral isn't the only lax you need then, eh?

You take a package of Mexican Velveeta and put it in a pan on the stove over low heat. Add 1 can of Rotel tomatoes. Heat until melted, stirring occasionally. Makes the best nachos in the world!!! Now that's outside the box!!

Parallax · 11-22-2013, 03:36 PM

You know, that sounds really good, but Kraft makes Velveeta and they put their name on the product. How could anyone buy something that carries the name of the company that makes it?
