Let's TWIST again like we did last summer...gadgets are on your wish list?

[Guest guest]

I keep thinking about that poor boy who will according to elders neva

get a date because of dreaded garlic odor...Perhaps that is the

underlying reason why ppl resort to yelling at the inarticulate

spatula. It's a way to vent the frustration of reaching for the tool

of the enemy...

 

Perhaps we as a whirled could simply give up eating garlic at all--

pressed, twisted, nor squeezed...speaking of which...then perhaps we

could more easily develop closer contact with actual human beings in

order to yell at them instead!

 

....maybe even grab a dance on crowded floor...where often one is

pressed, twisted, and squeezed as well...although conversely, I can

see the advantages of garlic for clearing the floor

 

 

Food for thought

No, no, no - you have it backwards. Everyone needs to eat garlic so

we all smell the same.... you can't be takin' away my garlic!!
