I just touched cotton...brb.
I you allergic to cotton, LionTamer?
I was referring to Osso's last few posts.
It is a figure of speech...and not a pretty one.
Potty humor, and all that.
How 'bout dem Sox today ?
Ok, I see I've talked too much. Still, it was not my fault. It was that link ehbeth gave that started me posting multiply.

Noooo,
I was trying to say that I laughed so enthusiastically at your posts, that I soiled myself.
Please, oh please don't stop.
I'm safe now.
Well, none of what I said was untrue, flying with words though it was. Basic Threads is still quite the supplier of many of our stores, I think, unless I missed something in recent news.
ooooh, I see, LionTamer..... Good one.
Osso, you can keep typing so far as I'm concerned!
Sheesh, I should relax. Hug, lion.
Osso, right back at you...you little dickens.
What can I say... I think it is useful for firms on the march or artists wanting to get a place away from parents, or... whatever.. to be in group buildings. I've been in that situation twice, once as a partner in an early gallery, in 1975, when I met my then husband, and later in this recently (on this thread) described situation as a hired designer. Alternately, it is really good to get away from that. Therefore, what would I say now, don't sign up for five years.
<little dickens... schniff.... no one has called me that in quite a while.. >
Osso--
Lying? Never.
Sometimes the "truth" needs a little rearranging to show inner clarity.

Laughed.

Beautiful! Looks like folk-art. Is it? Really good portrait. Yes this is a really good thread. Interesting people, interesting ideas. Like an east coast state of mind thing!

Quote: Restaurant maestros Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich's newest is a tapas bar in wolf's clothing. It's a modest Spanish restaurant where the dishes are myriad and small, but the food is decidedly large. Batali's favorite offal product, tripe, graces the menu, as do rubbery coxcombs (braised, with green chilies), and sweetbreads fried like chicken in a crunchy, salty batter. These dishes can be ordered singly, with a glass of wine, in a great, tapas-like rush, or in the classic appetizer-entree sequence. They're served in a small, clamorous submariner's room on thick, wooden tables or at the bar. The room's walls are lined with bottles of fine sherries and wines, and tapeadors who choose to sit at the bar directly in front of the grill get to experience Spanish food cooked "a la plancha," in all its smoky glory. ?-Adam Platt
Recommended Dishes: Fried calamari, $9; patatas bravas, $7; brussel green scallions, $7; fried duck egg, $12; Q; lamb chops, $15; sliced skirt steak, $14
forgot to mention this great place - had the pulled pork on the afternoon that Frank and Lola and I met.
mmmmmmmm

Quote:RUB
208 W. 23rd St., between Seventh and Eighth Aves., (212) 524-4300.
Meaning "Righteous Urban Barbecue," RUB is a project of Paul Kirk, the famed Kansas City barbecue master with a cooking school, a spot in the Barbecue Hall of Fame and a slew of competition titles. Don't expect fancy decor at RUB, because the focus is the food: Kirk's famous brisket, St. Louis-style ribs, smoked turkey, pastrami, sausage or pulled pork, served sides like crispy onion rings or deep-fried Oreos in checkered paper boats.
Had to get you meat, Beth....
...you were threatening to take a bite out of one of the park guards.
Jeez. You are a handfull when you are hungry.
As for the "pulled pork"....none of the guys I know would be caught dead eating anything with a name like that.
Sorry Frank
Did I scare you?
I'll be nicer the next time
