Generally scorned by bourgeois, diet conscious Americans. But it's delicious.3969. wonkers2 - 3/3/2007 8:35:39 PM

ooooooh frustration!
We have been looking forward to the total eclipse of the moon. Right now, the moon should be entering the earth's shadow...
... but it's cloudy tonight.
You people should look out for it a bit later on.

Bob and I will be out in our yard with blankets. It's crystal clear here, but cold. It's supposed to get to 26F tonight.

alistairConnor, yes, they call it SPAM in Hawaii. It is even on the McDonald's menu there.
South Pacific Army Meat. It's an acronym.
I hope the skies clear for you.

3968. wonkers2, you think SPAM is delicious?
Ick. I bought some for my kid, because he wanted to see what is was, and even he wouldn't eat it.
It must be an aquired taste.

Perhaps. I acquired as a kid during WWII. Haven't had any for a while because my spouse is down on processed foods. The delicacy suffers from widespread prejudice such as the scorn heaped on it by Judith and, of course, is the source of the name for unwanted email.

well...life is short.
I think you should get yourself some SPAM meat, to remind you of childhood.
To heck with that Judith! We are talking childhood memories, here!
Let me misspel something here, so Judith will show up, and correct it all.

Spam is a staple in Hawaii and I endure it because my husband is Hawaiian...it's not like having it a few times a year is going to kill us.
To tell you the truth, I would eat anything disgusting my husband liked because he is a gem of a man in my eyes and while that doesn't include menudo (Mexican tripe soup), it covers anything in Hawaii they love, like poi and sei moi (salted, dried plums).
He hates Mexican food but he will take me to a Mexican restaurant because he knows I like it...so it is little enough sacrifice for me to eat Spam twice a year.

Don't be snide...you know I only correct myself.

Spring is here!

Great picture!
Everything's in bloom here.

Well after a very mild winter, it snowed from Monday to Saturday.
Today it started to melt.

Crocuses are rising in Detroit.
