I was so disappointed when I rode in my first convertible. so much wind and it pushed my hair forward, not back because of the swirling or something.

I've driven a convertible where this happened to the person in the back seat, but in the front there was no problem at all.

Night, billytea!

Registering for pole dancing in another window

That sounds really cool. And I'll bet it builds some crazy muscles.

Our favorites are: Sprechter's (traditional out of Wisconsin I think),

Ooooh. The really yummy custard place sells that stuff, and makes rootbeer floats out of it if you want.

one of my favorite soft drinks is the ginger ale available at Big Bowl restaurants here in Chicagoland--real ginger infused in fizzy soda water, yum!

ooh. This is only yummier when there's fresh limes involved....

(and I am not left handed, and I can't find a proper way to insert a "Princess Bride" joke here, alas).

I adore Nilly.

And I AM left-handed. And eat with my fork in my left hand. And knife in my right. And dont' switch.

nother trivial thing that bugs me - people who drive convertibles with the top down but the windows up. It's aesthetically wrong!

Yes, but sometimes it makes all the difference in how much the wind is annoying! (Oh, or what Kat said)

but, ita, you don't want to date.

That doesn't mean I can't make sarcastic comments about my dateability, does it?

ita, are you taking an S Factor class?

Yep. If I decide to go on with it I might sign up somewhere different, but for intro classes in the next month (M's leaving at the end of August) they have the most convenient class.

Grapefruit Yay/Cilantro?

Megan E

I am cilantro YAY!

Pole dancing classes crack me up.

Ok,
Cilantro - Yummmmy!
Grapefruit - too bitter
Olives - Yes, please!
Root Beer - don't like carbonation
Bagel - prefer English muffins
Bacon - Yummy
Tomatoes - Absolutely. Preferred with fresh cheese, basil, salt and pepper, drizzled with olive oil.
Love all seafood save salmon
Pineapple on pizza - don't like ham, so rarely have, but it's fine
Beer - see above re:carbonated
Scotch - Good lord yes! It's all I ever drink.
Tequila - Yep. Preferrably the peppery kind.
Fernet - Is good.
Sleep - stomach or back. Side hurts my hips
Fork - whichever hand I grab it with
Watch - don't wear one
Both handed

Bacon pancakes, people. Burrell had some. I had a taste. OMG. It's heavenly heart horror.

Never had them, but sounds awesome. You can skip the step of cutting your bacon. Not that I wouldn’t order them with a side of bacon.

Octopus and calamari? Most definitely, but it must be cooked in such a way that it's not rubbery. Grilled with a little salt and lemon is delish.

Oh, I should take you to this restaurant in the new ‘hood. I had a fantastic salad with grilled calamari and pesto dressing.

I wonder how the difference came about. FTR, I use a fork and knife European style.

Me too, if I’m eating something that does not require cutting, I eat American style.

Pineapple on pizza – yay

When did yay start equaling wrong? :)

Love all seafood save salmon

Freak! Salmon is the bestest seafood. After lobster and crab.
