nah, it's always Fryedaye on my calendar ...southern cooking, ya know.
we fry everything all the time. :)

oblig. vanagon content ...
ok, so lots ...even most ... of us give names/personification to our
buses.
anybody care to comment as to WHY we do that?

all i can come up with is that the bus (vanagon, eurovan, splittie, or
breadloaf)
seems to have a personality ... other cars i've owned didn't. honda
didn't, mercedes didn't, porsche didn't. go figure.
