4. On Molto Mario??
Gasp! Perish the thought!

Mario makes his own pasta. You've certainly purchased items from his father's salumeria there in Seattle.

10. No. Not-so-much
My father is an importer/distributor of fine and gourmet food items to restaurants, delis and shops. Chances are better than average his dad's salumeria purchases from my dad.

15. My brothers both live in LA, one in Hollywood, one in Silverlake...
We were just out in June for a visit. Kind of funny story. We're on the beach, all of us in bathing suits, cept for my beloved, who always (I mean always, okay cept for bedtime) wears pants and long sleeves. There he is in his black jeans and a white oxford...in the surf and the sand...

Hey, I'm getting the hang of the highjack idea...

67. I could choose now to mention the bit about the rabbit
going around the tree trunk and down the hole, but that could be misconstrued and judged as poor taste. And we sure want to avoid that in this forum.

May all such knots that your bouncing heart desires prove to be Gordian. Unless you don't want them to.

Okay, then.

Turn this thread around and take me to the topless beaches of Saint Kitts, that I might gaze upon small-breasted Europen women in thongs. Long live the glorious revolution!
