Are there not supposed to be truffles in Saudi Arabia?
well, truffles are usually found in a forest, growing under a log or something, in the damp. Not much damp in Saudi Arabia. Or forest. Or logs. I mean, the only damp I can think of is man made. Or digging 3 feet into the sand at night.
They only have them when it rains. But they are there.
"embarrassment in not an exemption."
So true.
That said, I did find a memo once, written to a nun, with the sign-off "May the Force be with you." !!!
So funny!
Truffles of the mushroomy kind? I'm guessing chocolate truffles wouldn't be so much of a surprise.
I'm taking a poll: Who here either uses or receives serious business e-mail that seriously uses emoticons?
I have received e-mail from a manager that, in all seriousness, used multiple emoticons.
I replied: "Seriously? ':)'?
You weren't a business major, were you?"
I've gotten emails from the head of my department using emoticons.
I never received a business email with emoticons. Athough it's been well over 3 years since I've worked in a professional setting.
Judicious emoticons I can handle. Chatspeak I never forgive, and I've gotten way too much of that.
Turns out truffles HAVE been cultivated and, that, in 1900 they were much more common and most people used them a lot.

aha! the damp! I remember when we lived there, the rain was always cause for great celebration. Happened once or twice a year.
You have a garage?
No, but my parents do. And yesterday I woke up when two 70 pound labradors bounced on the bed and tried to taste my face. Good times.
