Paolino

Love that word. Haven't heard it in years.

Enclave should be XTS? Doesnt the "S" stand for sedan?

See, that'd just be torture for me. Being a neat freak, I'd be constantly vacuuming the dirt. :AH-HA_wink:

I had thrush last year when I had my tonsils out/palette reshaped and refused to eat/drink anything for a week. I won't go into details, but it was a shiiiiiiity experience altogether. As for the neti pot, well, I had sinus infections every 1-2 months for years. Since I started using my neti pot (and I only use it once/week), 3 years ago, I've only had one sinus infection.

What's with Mercedes and their interiors lately? They blow...

These sound really cool!

Well, the meal cooked right, preferably with fresh ingredients. They rarely use preservatives in Italy, and it does affect the results. Also, some local chains seem to think opening up a can of jarred sauce or a can of tomatoes constitutes a fresh sauce. No.

I like foods as well... unfortunately I can't have them like I used to since my surgery. For some reason, the sensation isn't there--like the nerves didn't reconnect after the surgery. It's spicy on my tongue, but it's an uncomfortable tingling in my mouth... it's very weird. I love spicy salmon rolls too... and the other roll I'm drawing a blank--it has soft shell crab in it. Alaskan? I can't remember.

Italian (only authentic, no "fast-food" or "diner" Italian acceptable) Thai Mexican (again, authentic... no Taco Bell (although I love Taco Bell)) Greek

Hmmm.. yesterday's high was 20. Today was 30. By Sunday, 48. However, Monday, back down to 31. Not quite yet.

+1... I'm liking everything but what's going on with the B Pillar.

Lost was a show I started watching about the 3rd season in, borrowing DVDs from my friend.

My friend's Prius' engine always starts when the power is turned on and the temp is 37F or below. The reason being is that there's no heat for the cabin without the engine. EDIT: It is my guess that's the reason.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I've lost HOURS and HOURS being sucked into Google Earth. I couldn't stop looking up things--like, down to the freaking hospital I was at last time I was in Italy! It's outrageous!

This is sad. I almost want Hyundai to work for GM.

Wow, that's not bad.

That is about par for the course on Long Island... I'm thinking the "fairy" on the car is actually an angel--it looks like it's in the clouds and they called it a fairy simply to avoid the religious connotations.

What makes you think a girl didn't drive this? Just because it's a pink Jetta doesn't mean it's from a gay male.

What do you mean "scald" the cream--like, put it at high and burn it? Or just high til it starts boiling and then remove? I've never heard the term "scald" with cooking.

Glad to hear you're in one piece BV... sorry about the car though

Okay, I laughed my ass off on that one!

Thanks again guys It's been a calm day... some lesson plans, some cleaning, a christening. The big party will be on 2/13. I start drinking at 4PM lol

Thanks guys!

Happy Birthday!

Did you break your nose at some point? Uh, damn, she's hot!
