Re:
I'm trying not to, TAPS, but it's tougher than it seems. Some days I have my notebook open, and nothing comes to mind. Other days, six or seven will pop into my head out of nowhere! I'll go as long as I can . . .

Re: JimmyA
I think everyone can, Sir Wiley. That's why I always tell people, if you're waiting for an important call, just go into the bathroom. You don't necessarily have to do anything in there, just step in and count to ten. The phone will ring, believe me . . .

Re:
I don't think anyone can, FSI! That's why I always thought that tag-line was a bit on the ridiculous side! Probably the same thing with M & M's. Whether or not they melt in your mouth and not in your hand, you know you're going to eat a whole pile of them . . .

Re:
I don't know any 'Schmidts' either, C C T, and certainly no one with Jingle in their name! And I guess if I had a choice, I'd rather have that waitress rub my leg than that doctor, hypochondriac or no . . .

Thanks, Pat. And hey, if getting on 'the naughty list' meant that I made some people smile and/or laugh, I'll take it! I don't think Santa minds people like that at all! In fact, I'm sure he encourages it . . .

Re: Jimmy
That's true, Naut. Or, if he was taught to use a smart phone, I'm sure there are apps out there that will show the various food items as well. All he would have to do then is call up a particular sandwich or meal and show it to the server. Hey, I may be on to something there . . .

- It may be time for someone to give some grant money to some university to do someresearch to determine once and for all why, thirty seconds after you step into the bathroom, the phone rings!
- Uh, well I'm afraid to say I identified with one but there ya go.LOL

I know that I could never just eat one potato chip in a bag.

Never heard of that Schmidt unless he was one of the Jingle Schmidts.
Anger management was funny. I know a man who went to the doctor, the doctor examined him and said I think you are a hypochondriac. This is true Jimmy. What did you say I asked him. He looked at me ,'I said I think you are a Quack, but that's no help to either of us.' I never knew what to ask for when a pretty waitress rubbed my leg, but you give old stagers ideas.

Congratulations, you're on the "naughty" list. Martha says that's a good thing.

LOL! Good ones! And poor Guiseppe - condemned to apple pie and coffee for years! But how times have changed - today he could just point to the picture on the menu...
