If not for Albert Pujol's great year, I think we would be realizing that Prince Fielder is a much more complete hitter than his father was.

Wanna know something weird? I hate milk. Loathe it. Can't stomach it.

But I LOOOOOVVVVVVVE chocolate milk. Odd huh?
I hate milk, too. When I was in Head Start (yes, my parents were THAT poor), my teacher made me drink my milk at lunch one day. I told her that I didn't like it. She told me that I WOULD drink it. In fact, she stood over me until I drank it.

And 30 seconds after I drank it, she was running off to find a mop and some towels because I regurgitated the milk and the cheeseburger I'd eaten all over the cafeteria table. And after she cleaned all that up, she put me in her car and she drove me home.

That teacher also taught me in second grade. She never, ever insisted again that I drink my milk.

Nor did any other teacher. Word gets around.
OH NO, that's soo sad!!!! :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: Did your mom or dad come to the school to have a talk with that teacher?
No, see paragraph 2 above. I did all the necessary communicating for my family that day.[/quote]

=)) =)) =)) =)) My poor baby!!!! If my daughter came home at the hands of the teacher who made her sick and told me that story, some heads would roll!!!! :ar! :ar! :ar! :ar! OFF WITH HER HEAD!!!!! ;)

I love whole MILK, 1/2% milk, can't understand why anyone would want to drink skim milk and I love Chocolate Milk!!! I can handle strawberry milk, but these days, only buy it for my daughter who loves it in moderation.
You left some chocolate milk in my fridge.

Very attractive woman at the PetSmart today, didn't get a good look at her hands.
It's like flippin' clockwork for me these days...look at her face, then her left hand. I do it without even thinking. It's kind of weird.
Don't feel too bad about it. The first thing I noticed about the good looking fireman stepping out of the truck at the block party was the ring on his left hand. I still admired God's handiwork. ^:)^
Rings, or the lack thereof, tell very little about the person wearing them.

I have a bag of Starbucks Anniversary Blend on my desk. It was a gift from a client.

I would have preferred a thank-you note to a bag of coffee.
Congratulations! Can you take a picture of it with self-scribed commentary so you can put in the accolades notebook? Then we can drink that coffee!!!!! Yummmm!!!! ;)
I put it upstairs with the Krups machine.[/quote]

Cool, you took the coffee maker upstairs? One or Two cups?

I'm sure we'll blow right on through 10,000 sometime today/tonight, too.
Is that a challenge?

Yes! We have posted about this before.

You're a Super Taster, too.
I don't think they are necessarily mutually exclusive. In the VAST majority of cases, I fall in the middle somewhere. I believe I fall in the "sensitive taster" category, but not quite the super taster. I think non super tasters CAN have an aversion to saccharin, and I think some super tasters DON'T have the aversion. I don't think one necessarily HAS to follow the other. I think it actually falls on a different part of the same chromosome, genetically.

GAH, you've thought about this a lot, haven't you?

I just think that artificial sweeteners taste bitter and they linger way too long.

And my cousin, the nutrition professor, calls me a "SuperTaster."
What does GAH mean?

I didn't think about it a lot, just learned about it in school. You could very well be a "super taster". I didn't mean to imply that you weren't. What level of "taster" you are depends on the number of taste buds per square inch of tongue you have. Your ability to taste artificial sweeteners in a genetic predisposition independent of your number of taste buds. However, the number of taste buds could potentially affect the LEVEL of your revulsion. ;)

That'll be a biggie. Bunches of cool things to do with that post.
Unfortunately, knowing this crowd, it'll end up being something pretty mundane, as it'll be very difficult to get a planned post of any sort through at just the right moment.
And that's what will make it so hilarious--the randomness factor of the LTE.

In my estimation, that site is for the most part a needless pastiche of the DBArr! :ar! , to say nothing of the fact that it's a blatant usurpation of our moniker.
pastiche

I love the way that word sounds.
It does have a catchy ring to it! Can't wait to hear you say it and hear me destroy it!!! :-o :-o :-o :-o =)) =)) =)) =))

Yeah, rings may or may not tell the real story. But then, sometimes the person doesn't either.

Unfortunately, we are losing some steam at the moment.
Trying to pitch in but I've got problems at work. Maybe I should just post until the problems go away. Is that possible?
That's certainly been my theory today. . .
