That cheese thing is just plain gross.

I'm not too concerned about the maggots I have to admit, other than the fact that I don't fancy eating them.

Is it the sort of thing you eat without taking a breath while you chew it? You know...like bad medicine?

Hey if I knew cellar people liked to be specific I would've kindly obliged. As it is, most people seem to believe I talk too much regarding things they don't care about. According to common communications theory, the average listener will subjectively conclude the meaning of your statement after 30 seconds of listening, no matter how long or in depth your statement might be. I.e. People have short attention spans.

I shall be sure to peruse the useless crap, it's a lot more interesting than most things in my experience. ^_-

But we're not listening, we're reading. What you write on the board can be reread, mulled, contemplated, read again, dissected, critiqued, fact checked and generally digested before being responded to at a convenient time.






It ain't... but it could.
