Would Edward Gorey be considered a children's book illustrator?
Not primarily, but some of his books could be classified as for children.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Yahoo! Answers has him listed under "Children's Illustrators". I was hoping to use him for my illustrator project for class, but wasn't sure if he really "counted" as such.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
This is from Wikipedia:
In later years he illustrated many children's books by John Bellairs, as well as books in several series begun by Bellairs and continued by other authors after his death.

The brewpub I got to all the time (two locations) has had deep fried pickles on the menu as long as I can remember. I've heard they are good, but I've never quite worked up the nerve to order them.
dude, they are GOOOOOD. I just got into them a couple months ago. you gotta cut them in half and let them cool though because they are molten lava hot under the crust.
I am watching the first season of Top Chef (I set up my season pass to catch TC Chicago and it grabbed the season 1 marathon too) and THE PRETENTIOUS SOMMELIER MUST GO!
Oh, yeah, and I'm on my couch for the day again.

my mother does this insane thing where she puts a candy cane in the middle of a big dill pickle and sucks the pickle and the candy cane together. It's GROSS.
Ew. But we used to do this with hollow candy sticks and lemons and it's fab.
Actual pickles soaked in Koolaid or, pickles made with Koolaid in place of the brining liquid? Either way, no.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Actual pickles soaked in Koolaid or, pickles made with Koolaid in place of the brining liquid?
Dill pickles soaked in Koolaid, and seconding the NO.

Dill does NOT equal half-sour.
Half-sour pickles are salty. Dill pickles are sour.
Signed, loves on dill but hates on half-sour.
How are half-sour pickles not dill? Aren't they just in the brine for less time and retain their crispyness because of this?
