No, heavens no.  I'm allergic to MSG and similar preservatives.  I *still* haven't met a Chinese restaurant I've not regretted eating at, whether they advertise to be MSG free or not.  :'(  And I *really* like Chinese food!!! 

So true.  And come to think of it, most of the ones on my list the tables aren't configured well for large groups.  I've not eaten at Sal's but my parents and grandparents rave about it.


heh. i'm allergic to spicy food.. and i LOVE spicy food.  a good pico is the way to my heart.
and grasshoppers can't talk anyway, dammnit!

But it might get buried under a mound of snowballs.

I am neutral. And I am enforcing that by threatening anyone who throws a snowball at me with taking my shirt off at them.

He knows better. He's a sharpshooter and can't afford that much damage to his retinas.

That just provides an unclothed target at which to throw snowballs.

You have to open your eyes for reasonable accuracy. Your brain is not sufficiently hardened for that.

I do not leash her. I prefer my hands to stay attached to my arms.

Thus making my point quite eloquently . I only met her the once and I have a healthy respect for her.
