It all depends on what else is in it.

And it also depends how long you want the hat to hold it for.

Great thread. I've got a question that has been on my mind since I just now came up with it.

steve(thelil), do you have any strange cheese anecdotes?

I hadn't thought of the first factor. Very impressive.

I just might! Thanks for asking!


(Hint. Did you hear the one about the Muenster and the Munster. It's a thigh slapper!)

(Hint #2. Facebook is always trying to interest me in Christian Singles. What are those, individually wrapped slices of Christian?)

(Hint #3. Some cheese-like stuff is labeled "cheese food" - not so you will know it's like cheese....but so you know it's like food!)

Best on white bread.


(I found some strange cheese in my fridge last night. No anecdote just strange.)

Do you live on the Upper West Side?

If so, do you visit the local pet stores?

Yes, I do live on the Upper West Side. But it isn't why I visit the local pet stores. It isn't even where I visit pet stores!

Thanks for asking!

I am both playing and singing the blues, but no new blues recordings. When I visit local pet stores, I do some Howlin' Wolf as a tribute to the residents.

Thanks for asking!


walto wrote:Are cobwebs for catching corn or swans?


I've always found that hard to answer. But I'm leaning towards "Yes"

Thanks for asking!

Have you ever seen Philip Roth?

He ain't never been a rabbit and he ain't no friend of mine.

Thanks for asking!

Rarely. Only when it's MY OWN nose hair I pluck.

Thanks for asking!

Cool, I had no idea that you lived in the same neighborhood OR that you were Philip Roth!

I actually have seen you on the street or in stores several times.

When I lived on 79th, you had an apartment in the building next door! I remember running into you in the business services store on Columbus near 79th when you were copying and sending a draft of a new work to a publisher. Another customer commented "Another book" You joked back "Gotta keep paying the bills" .
.......When the store worker said "479 pages" (or whatever number it was) I wanted to joke "479 pages, I guess you can really write!" but didn't have the nerve.

Oh! I didn't mean that I was Philip Roth! But I have seen him in the neighborhood. You should have joked with him. I bet he would have laughed. I mean, a good writer HAS to have a sense of humor.

That said, have you ever seen Frank Langella?

Do you go to Five Napkin Burger? If so, how do you like their burgers and sushi?

Do you ever go to DSW for shoes?

Do gerbils wear shoes?

Do you patronize that cheap hot dog place on Broadway? I don't believe that there is any real papaya in their drink.

False.

Thanks for asking, Phil!

Yes. I thought he was powerful in "Diary of a Mad Housewife"

Thanks for asking!

Mr. Met wrote:Do you go to Five Napkin Burger?


Been there once for a burger and once for fish tacos.

Thanks for asking!

Mr. Met wrote: so, how do you like their burgers and sushi?


I've never felt that combo worked. Prefer cheese and or/bacon on my burger

Thanks for asking!


Mr. Met wrote: you ever go to DSW for shoes?


I go there for capital letters and because their men's bathroom is by far the closest public restroom to the uptown 79th street subway exit.

Thanks for asking!

Mr. Met wrote: Do gerbils wear shoes


Tough to answer either "yes" or "no". Most gerbils wear one shoe
