Filet Mignon
This would have fit nicely into the 'I love my car...' thread, but that one has turned into a headlight discussion, and I doubt anyone is paying attention to it any more...
...and I do so crave your attention. This morning my wife and I were on our way in to the office. She has the day off and her car was here at the office because I wasn't feeling well so she came to pick me up last night. How sweet, huh? I mentioned that I wanted to try to find new front rotors for my car because they're warped and we have this road trip ahead of us. She said she didn't notice anything wrong with the brakes yesterday when she drove it (she had to drive a couple superiors around during paresnt-teacher conferences, so she wanted to use my car). I explained that the rotors cause tha car to shake during stops sometimes like her Explorer used to. Again, she said she didn't notice it. 'Your car drives so nicely compared to mine, I wouldn't notice if anything was wrong.' 'Your car drives fine - it's just loud,' I replied. 'Oh, I love my car,' my wife said, 'but it doesn't really compare. My Legacy is like a peanut butter sandwich and yours is like a filet mignon.' Have a good weekend, everybody.

Uh-oh! Loins, propositions etc. We're getting close to one of the greatest puns of all time. I'm sure Don knows it. Fortunately, I won't repeat it here, lest I run the risk of crashing the network.
I veal use restraint this time. Ron.

I hate to lamb-baste anyone, but it sounds like all you grizzled old guys are just chewing the fat.
------- or ------------ I have to beef about all the posts on this tread. They seem to steer in only one vein and that's just too tough for my taste. ------------- or-------------- I thought that there was something fishy here, but all these posts are really prime. They seem to be a cut above. Larry III |

Mr. Wordsmith,
Deer me; those words slid so easel-y off your tongue. Larry III |
