    Hee. Would you believe poor ol' Aunt Rosie would probably burn a salad? That was one stop on our "visit the family" walks (we didn't own a car, mom never learned to drive), that mom made certain we never arrived at anytime near a meal! Aunt Rosie may still be alive, I dunno, we lost all track of her after she diviored Uncle Bud, who died at age 56. He was mom's oldest brother. Mom is 67, I think don't quote me, ok?

    I think a person would have to be the epitome of a bad cook to burn salad, does anybody else agree?

    Was the water from the half full cup in which started this very game?

    Would you say that water in a cup being half-full or half-empty is important, or knowing the difference?

    Wouldn't that be a matter of opinion and desired reaction from your listener?

    You wouldn't dare mention any turnips, now would you?

    I just might mention turnips now, since you have reminded me, hmm?

    But it would be especially noteworthy if it was actually hailing turnips...that would be a sight to see, no?

    How does the use of the word "noteworthy" imply that there is something wrong with hailing turnips?

    noteworthy - worthy of notice; "a noteworthy advance in cancer research"
    notable
    worthy - having worth or merit or value; being honorable or admirable; "a worthy fellow"; "no student deemed worthy, and chosen for admission, would be kept out for lack of funds"- Nathan Pusey; "worthy of acclaim"; "orthy of consideration"; "a worthy cause"
    2. noteworthy - worthy of notice; "a noteworthy fact is that her students rarely complain"; "a remarkable achievement"
    remarkable
    significant, important - important in effect or meaning; "a significant change in tax laws"; "a significant change in the Constitution"; "a significant contribution"; "significant details"; "statistically significant"

    Is Hockeychick not aware of the turnip affair primarily involving Aimus and Kathy?

    Was that before his time?

    I guess she is unaware of the deep and abiding love, that I and Aimus have for turnips...but I guess that is ok, hmmm?

    It may well be before Hockeychick's time, I think she joined in March?

    So, RJ, how are you doing?

    Would you believe that I am perfectly well?
    Would it suffice to say I lost interest in Lit-Net and prioritized RL?
    Should I really think the first quote in your signature is hilarious?
