Is "frilly" an acceptable answer?

It might be if it had a colour attached to it!

Goody2S: what is it about linguine that is so perfect for fish/shellfish? Not sure what 'littleneck clams' are, but assume they're small and sweetish. I've done a great dish where you cook fish in a tomato based sauce, then put the fish to one side and use the remaining sauce for linguine. I guess this is pretty standard in Italy. Heaven. The asparagus dish sounds wonderful, provided you don't mind peeing asparagus juice afterwards. Apparently the same applies for women (or men) who, ahem, swallow. An expert in such matters I saw on TV (on a serious anthropological programme, needless to say) said it was the worst possible flavouring.

frilly is not a color.

blue is though.

Yes, I was being facetious. Blue & white by the way.

I'm currently surrounded by a bunch of strangers as I have dropped by the local library to see if they have a particular book of poems by Charles Bukowski.

If you could clone a board member and keep both the original and the copy chained to your radiator who would it be and what KISS album would you play for them over and over and over again?

Mr. Westinghouse--Linguine because it's chewy and substantial and has sufficient bulk to soak up all that yummy sauce, I suppose. Shouldn't comment on the other subject....

ok, i get it, never mind.

tell us something about yourself: do find breakdancing for the pope or the captain and tennille playing muskrat love for the queen more offensive?

Somebody better call you an idiot now.

oily slick · Post by **oily slick** » Tue May 18, 2004 9:18 pm

i'm not really an idiot; you wouldn't believe what i am. i was writing what i was thinking. subtle self-depracation about my Rush affinity, a take off on the old paul newman movie, clandestine editorializing about how people spinning in front of the barely alive pope is at a minimum peculiar, and so forth. many understand. and i didn't call you an idiot.

A Popeye-armed enigma?

Yes, I'd be interested in reading your Rush review.

What did you want to (or did) yell out related to last being in a situation where people went along with something you hated?

shut the fuck up.

OS, all that clandestine editorializing--stop it! It's making me crazy.

Should I stay or should I go?

Why don't you staaaaay? Just a little bit longer. . . . . .

"At midnight, I'm either going to Shout or going home!"

Shout is an awesome mod party in New York. My sisters (who had promised they would got to Shout with me) and the guy who had hijacked our night just stared blankly at me. I went home. It was a rough night.

mood swung: Stay.

What's your favorite kind of reference book?

Definitely a Dictionary of Quotations.

How do you pronounce 'measure'?
Mayzhur or Mezhur?

Mezzanine.

Are you experienced?

selfmademug · Post by **selfmademug** » Wed May 19, 2004 1:03 pm

I thought the answer was 'yes,' but it turns out I am not, yet. Which is fine.

Headphones: cups that cover your ears, or 'earbuds'?

mood swung · Post by **mood swung** » Wed May 19, 2004 3:22 pm

cups at least. a surround-sound motorcycle helmet would be nice.

why do the hiders hide? and you don't have to come out of hiding to answer--feel free to postulate and theorize.

Because they haven't been found yet.

Well, although we've decided to go our separate ways, the answer to that is still my husband.

Do you have any superstitions?

El Vez · Post by **El Vez** » Sat May 22, 2004 12:15 pm

I'm such a creature of habit that if I am forced to break away from routine then I firmly believe that my day will be screwed up. But as far as avoiding black cats or not walking under ladders.....no, not really.

What are the five biggest problems in your life right now?

crash8_durham · Post by **crash8_durham** » Sat May 22, 2004 10:31 pm

1) The house and yard have become overwhelming as far as up keep with my wife and I working.

2) I travel over 900 miles a week so I guess the price of gas would currently qualify

3) The power has been out for 3 days and though it just came back on tonight the stuff in the freezer is in question

4) I have sunburn

5) It costs too much to fix up an old car.

Other than that, everyone is healthy so as you can see, if this is the worst I have too deal with, life aint too bad at all.

What actual gift (Christmas, birthday etc) meant the most to you ?
