* lest there be any doubt about my love for the finer culinary delicasies of life ![]() O, glorious bit of nourishment, Thy taste is truly heaven sent. Such pleasure thou expounds to me, My precious tube of ecstacy! Though many morsels touch my tongue Thine anthem ne'er shall be outsung. Sweet Machevellian delight Pervades my throat with every bite. There is no greature pleasure than Eight sausages packed in a can. The grandeur of thy sweet bouquet Is faint to take one's breath away. Thy juice and stunning succulence Is said to conjure flatulence And rumblings from the diaphram Unmatched, of course, except by Spam. But, from this land where Mozart played And Ludwig Van conciertos made, This land from where great music came Is it not right you make the same? Though other weiners may aspire To be as plump as Oscar Meyer Thy svelte, petitte, and sleek design Slide freely through these lips of mine. At weddings, thou art ever picked, With swedish meatballs on a stick To be the morsels of delight On that most joyous of all nights. My dearest treat, I bid thee well. I love thee more than words can tell. I take my leave....I must compose My "Sonnet to the Oreo". |

But Deer, if they do give you farts The thought just makes me faint of heart For if that smell should permeate Into my 'puter now it's late I'll never get me off to bed But it'll drive that cold from out my head ![]() Fun write. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? [This message has been edited by Tracey (edited 09-30-2001).] |

Tsk, tsk tsk... Tiny weenies? I don't think so. Kielblasa is the way to go! But then again, I'm such the glut, and should not write like such a-- ![]() Hmmm... A mouthful IS more than enough, and you'd think I'd learn to keep my mouth shut! ROFL...I'd better go get some coffee now. Think I'll just skip breakfast... ![]() |

You have changed the grocery experience of many. I cannot look at canned meats with the casual disregard I once did. And now, you're moving onto the cookie aisle! What next? You crack me up. |

OMG! You make them seem mouth watering. . . I still refuse to eat them but, thanks to you, I have a new low calorie appreciation for them and will chuckle for smiles to come when passing them by on my grocers' shelf. |
