Yep. I do come back from vacation enlarged.

jnoodles on 2015-04-05 03:15:39
It's the hash.

pegxpeg on 2016-06-21 16:42:48
No, it's the noodles.

Nope, it's the x-rated pegs.

"He for himself weaves woe who weaves for others woe, and evil counsel on the counselor recoils."

What's with all this woe weaving?

kat on 2010-03-08 15:46:27
I can't stand woe weavers.

LiveLoveLaugh on 2010-04-19 00:08:01
wonder what woe weavers wear when walking westward

Not sure if this quote is Inspirational, Edgy or Offensive, Clever or Witty, Thought Provoking, Possibly Erred, or Confus... oh I guess it's Confusing

Queethebean on 2012-05-10 22:47:23
How much woe would a woe weaver weave if a woe weaver would weave woe?

"Did you ever stop to taste a carrot? Not just eat it, but taste it? You can't taste the beauty and energy of the earth in a Twinkie."

Carrot cake Twinkie?

bansaisequoia on 2013-08-20 00:49:13
Brilliant idea, monty! We'll fill the carrot cake twinkies with cream cheese frosting and make million$!

skoogie2 on 2013-11-15 15:27:59
Oh my gosh! I want a carrot cake twinkie!

abra on 2014-02-26 14:57:20
I'll just eat the frosting. I don't want to taste all that carrot cake, Earth energy.

maradnu on 2015-03-26 16:05:07
I'd rather eat carrots than twinkies. Then again, I'd rather eat fettuccine alfredo than either of those

marnita on 2015-06-09 18:51:04
I don't care for Twinkies, but I could definitely go for Monty and Bansai's carrot cake version!

There appears to be no such person as Astrid Alauda, so it very well may be a pseudonym.

abra on 2016-03-30 09:24:02
I only eat carrots, if they're cut the right way. Three or four inch cross cut pieces for stew, cut length wise with pot roast, julienned for soup, grated for salad, never, ever diced in anything. There are no exceptions to the rules. Well there's one exception, if I'm a guest, eating someone else's cooking. In that case, I will try to discreetly mash them with my fork.

wvwoman on 2016-06-30 15:23:18
very interesting, abra! are you that fastidious with other foods?

SwampySox on 2016-07-22 11:48:20
Gimme carrot cake with 1/2 in cream cheese icing, or carrots out of the garden. (They tasted soo-oo good when we raided gardens as kids.)

Actually, incredible insight into atomic science for his day and being a poet. Provided he really said this, of course.

abra on 2014-12-19 12:24:37
And maybe he was merely being poetic, and there was nothing scientific about it. I could take it that way.

I'll be right back with a cliche, I mean comment, after I check with Dr. Phil to see what I should say. Meanwhile, here's a few words from our sponser.

oddcouple on 2013-10-27 01:52:20
As shown by so-called reality shows, comedies that aren't funny, and talk shows that neither entertain nor inform.

Unwinding_at_The_Falcon on 2014-03-07 15:41:15
This man seemed to be confusing the medium with the programming offered by public access networks. Whenever someone says that television 'ruts your brain', I'm pretty sure they're referring to the programming and not the medium.

LLapp on 2014-11-13 10:50:31
But the medium IS the message. (Also the massage.)

""Heirloom" is knitting code for "This pattern is so difficult that you would consider death a relief."" — Stephanie Pearl-McPhee

My parents were both incredible knitters.

universalmom on 2012-09-29 15:20:07
Really, your dad too? That's awesome

jstrider on 2013-10-07 07:11:33
I'm a married dude who knits too. I agree with the quote.

montyb on 2014-12-14 14:49:32
Yep, U-mom. Dad was the town doctor and he often would teach his cardiac patients (mostly farmers) to knit so they could keep busy if they couldn't farm anymore.

darkyr on 2015-04-16 05:51:45
I was thinking of taking up farming because I can't knit anymore.

Queethebean on 2012-06-03 21:55:21
Is it better if we are a nation of alert pears?

It goes without saying; and this should have gone without saying.
