Isn't it chat time now? Anyone know why it isn't open? Is it simply that Greg is the only person who can start it and he's not around today for some unknown reason?

I just did some math and came to the conclusion that you, Evo, are the best. There is even a proof for that.

Hey Lisab!

Andre, that sounds great. The leg is bad, I'm going to the doctor in the morning.

turbo, that's made me hungry.

We need to go into chat. :mad:

Turbo, what if you'd run out of the hot spicy stuff?
 
  • #21


What an unlucky person! After a long time I thought I could chat tonight!:frawn:
 
  • #22


I cannot run out of hot stuff, Andre. It is a cornerstone of my cooking, and I'm hoarding the garlic-y chili relish I made this summer. I put up over 30 jars, including 2-3 quart jars, and I fear that it will run out before I can make more.

Lisa! that's sad indeed.

What would happen to PF if Greg was committed to other things. Could Warren take over?

I wouldn't put any money on that. Forum administrators have god-like powers.

Yes, to my leg. A bad spider bite, perhaps. Not good, whatever it is.

I hope Greg is going to open chat. <hint, hint>
