Various Thoughts

1. I've discovered that I like peeling grapefruits and eating the sections just like tangerines.

2. I do not, however, like carrying a big 18-pound bag of grapefruits anywhere.

3. Today on the way home from the store, I saw a police car had stopped a semi. The semi driver was standing out in front leaning against the hood with his hands on the vehicle, and the cop was patting him down. I wonder what happened.

4. Green tabasco sauce is NOT hot. Seriously, go bathe in it with a bunch of paper cuts and you'll see what I mean.

5. I will be so glad when spring arrives. In case you happen to drive through Michigan then, I'll be the one skipping through town, strewing flowers from a basket while I sing pointless songs about robins bobbing along.

I'll bring my vid-cam and film that! Heh, heh...

And that's how I like it eat grapefruit; I mean really, who wants to deal with that silly spoon?

The trucker was just lonely and wanted some attention, so he told the cop he was hauling a load of illegal grapefruits.

Subby: Exactly! The spoon gets juice everywhere and leaves a bunch of juice behind, plus it's one more thing you have to wash afterward. With the peeling method, the grapefruit becomes finger-food! :) Very snack-like and fun.

Grace: You certainly may! :)

MikeWJ: So the cop was patting him down, trying to find a grapefruit in his pants? I see....

Nessa: Thank goodness I don't have a camera anymore! :)

Janna, or you could plunge a straw into it and...ahem...um that does work for honeybells ( google that; they're dee-lish! )

I think green Tabasco is milder than the red stuff, and the red stuff isn't hot either.

I think "go bathe in it with a bunch of paper cuts" is my new favorite phrase. And I'm going to try to find a reason to use it every day.

For example, the next time I hear someone say how much they love LOST, I'm going to say... if you love it so much, go bathe in it with a bunch of paper cuts!

Sweet.

Subby: Note to self: Search for sharp diamond-tipped straw....

Lynda: Absolutely right!

Jeff: LOL!! Glad I could help! :)

Nishant: So that's why the cop was patting him down... he was searching for stashed grapefruit... (!!!) :)
