Hi Ruth,

->  RH> didn't like it in that either.  Maybe if they'd left out the run it
->  RH> would have been fine.                                        ***

-> I'm sure you meant rum.  I've never tried one, nor had the desire to.  I
-> saw Emeril make one once; it turned out blue.

 RH> That's about right.  I think they're a waste of perfectly good rum,
 RH> m'self. I happen to like rum, but not mixed with mint.  I like mint,
 RH> but not mixed in my rum.  Rum cake is of course a whole different
 RH> ballgame; it's more or less a well-lubricated pound cake.

I'm not into rum.  Got some stollen once, without really loking at the
label.  Cut into it a couple of weeks later and the aroma of rum came
wafting out.  The stollen had a strong rum taste as well.  Not the most
enjoyable one I've eaten and now I read the label closer.


->  RH> It was fun to watch history being made.

-> History is made every day! I know what you mean but I got so tired of
-> the news folks using that phrase.

 RH> You're right, but you only realize what's happening once in a while.

Major events in history are what get us to sit up and take notice of
what's going on around us.  Those are what the media means when they say
"history is being made"; they don't stop to think that every day history
is made.

-> Undoubtedly hot dogs but of what quality remains to be seen.  I could
-> have had a Nathan's Famous at the Atlanta air port last month but
-> declined.  I had their chicken sandwich insted, nothing famous about it.

 RH> That may have been just as well; I'm told the quality has declined
 RH> over the past few years.  If you're lucky they'll serve some Dominican
 RH> or Puerto Rican goodies.

The chances of my going to a game there are rather slim.  If I ever do
get there, I'll give a food report.
