I can't. I was just thinking, as I used my new pan to cook panda steak wrapped in baby seal blubber held together with humpbacked whale bone - killed with both clubs and assault rifles - how could I possibly offend anyone?

Serve it with white wine.

(Pandas are red meat, right?)

I got some really nice 11 x 14 frames and 8 x 10 mats and framed one of Florence's favourite pictures, It was taken at my sister's home in Vancouver in 1984 I think. Year after we married.

Not so young he was 54 years old near as I recall. There are a couple of others very similar from that trip. We had only been married about a year and seemed to end up in each other's arms a lot. At one point my sister remarked "Dear God, they are at it again." Hey we were/are in love, what do you expect. I had waited over fifty years for her. I believe were were destined for each other from birth but His GPS system was not working and we were born over 1000 miles apart. He saw His chance to fix that in that 1983 blizzard when we were within five miles of each other, so we were sent to that hotel lobby. The only problem with courting a lady by mail is the lousy feedback loop - two to three weeks. Telephone was better but expensive. When I asked her to marry me we had only shaken hands up to that point. Now I am damn careful who shakes her hand.

Cool, this is a good idea. I'm sure I'm a day late and a dollar short there but I hadn't noticed this thread. Trying to figure out how to get a pair of AR-11s with no foam on the woofers safely packed to go to Florida. I'm thinking those good right angle styrofoam corner pieces on each side of the front with a piece of 3/16" plywood to lap over and then all shrink wrap compressed. The whole speaker then surround with 2" sheet foam. what to do about the woofers as far as support- I'm concerned about how they are moving freely without surrounds?

Even more awesome was that she said yes without hesitation.
