    How about one of the moderators do the right thing and change that? The little joke is long-since over.

    Great points, Masbee. I definitely think we should help people share their books via Facebook. They currently output in PDF format--we could easily host the PDF's and provide links to users to post on their FB status. Great way to advertise our company as well.

    I do know some people in the English wedding business, and they seem pretty optimistic that we can get writeups. These people are always looking for new ideas.

    But yeah, early on I plan on doing these at pretty low profit margins as we iron out bugs/get the word out.

    It's all good.

    Denny did that in desperation when he felt he was losing badly in the nuclear tragedy thread.

    Every time I see it I chuckle at the thought, and sadly time has proved I was right once again.

    Denny doesn't allow me access to things like that otherwise I would have tortured a bunch of you.

    Bored dog. You barked back this thread because...we just won a blowout over the Wolves missing starters Butler and Teague, along with Derrick Rose. Bad dog!

    Relevant to your eel soup? That's what it was about originally. You just finished a fine, fine non-filling dinner? Denny pays you too well.

    I can only say one thing about getting married. On our wedding night, I want to be taken out to dinner before we retire for the evening. Got that, dinner first and then my sweetie can savor my delights.

    If you're meaning Sheperd's pie, I've had that. It's made from beef and mashed potatoes. I'll never have it again. I'd rather eat haggis and I'll never eat that.

    All I ate today was 9-grain bread dunked in coffee, hummus on toasted hamburger buns, unripe hard cranberries, and now I'm going to have cheap chips, yogurt, and some fine fine squirming eel soup.

    It was a private joke between Denny and I, which I didn't mind because it was in fun and he could take it as well as dish it out.

    It's less than funny when used in a cowardly, hateful manner as a personal insult by hypocritical posters/mods trolling my posts because they lack the intelligence to debate me, which are the only persons who use it now.

    Damn, now this is a blast from the past. The original idea of this thread failed badly. Eh, you roll with the... :mook:. Just as long as it doesn't roll all the way into the anus.

    But please do check out my fine quality kitchen products! :)
    Here we are on Amazon. And of course, you can also order at CookbookPeople.com.

    I'm telling you, the new spice rack I designed is going to be hotter shit than Simons in 3 years, and I'm high on Simons.
