Off topic here, but what the heck is the deal with chocolate covered strawberries? I dont get it, women think its something so amazing. I dont like them , I prefer my strawberries "Au Naturele"

I think it's a carry over from a few hundred years ago, when both strawberries and chocolate were difficult to come by. Having both was probably considered extremely luxurious.

I did absolutely no research on this at all, so I'm probably wrong.

ooooh, I feel sick to my stomach.. I just made my sons some nice penne pasta with fresh tomatoes, red onions, sweet bell peppers, kale, fresh garlic, and basil, in light olive oil and touch of white wine. It was so good, but I cant handle fresh onions or garlic and even a touch too much of olive oil makes me fell so sick.

I used to love onions, especially good onion rings, I just had a cup of the pasta..... My head hurts and the pain under my sternum is bad.

Went out tonight and picked up a LNIB Beretta 92 FS Elite II. It's a beautiful gun but seems a little big for me (My favorite gun is a Beretta 85FS (below) and its about 2/3 the size of the Elite). Picked it up cheap so I can always get my money back if I decide I don't like it.

Feeling better today?

It's weird how people can be so different. Since I've hung around Super-T I've seen how many of you appreciate firearms. One would think there would be a correlation, but here I am, I never have had any interest. Zero interest, zero opinion, I know they exist and that's about the extent of it. Like Barbie dolls.

I am not a gun lover. I appreciate them as a tool. In my world, they were a very important tool. I lived a different life than most women. I lived and did business, where most women would not go. My guns made that possible. My guns have saved my life. :)

Once upon a time... in a parallel universe, I was a partner in an archery/sporting goods shop... we had a FFL, and I had disposable income.. The "OCD" kicked in and by the time the venture ran it's course, I had become quite the "bowman", and acquired a considerable number of firearms... I thought I would have a use for them at the time... but alas, my life went another direction...
I sold off some of the high end pieces, but I still have enough left to get me characterized on CNN as a "gun nut"... Anyone looking for a "classic bow??? Easton aluminum arrow shafts??? custom made arrows??? anyone???
I had a "knack" for archery... I could shoot a bow better than a rifle... hope to do that again someday...

After a handful of TUMs , and some anisette tea, YES. I hate this "aging" thing. I always said no matter what I would NEVER give up my beloved spicy foods. But....

Agreed. I remember hitting 40 and it was like some sort of timer went off. I used to make this spicy chili. Me and the guys would hunker down and hurt ourselves with it. Then I turned forty an my eyes went as did my ability to eat my own chili. I mourned that day.

Mine just makes my pee pee seem bigger, a job formerly done by a Pontiac Firebird back in the 80's. :D
