That's funny, Johnny. Someone once gave me an interestingly shaped tinted green bottle containing a sprig of cilantro submerged in a liquid of unknown origin. I held onto that thing for several years, not knowing if it was purely ornamental or if for preservation in the case I happened upon a recipe necessitating its use. After dusting that thing for serveral years, I finally tossed it.

That cracks me up, I'm thinking curry pudding.

Crab meat fried rice with Cilantro on top, while listening to a jazz duet...that was dinner last night. First time Cilantro. No big deal, except this morning I woke from a dream of radioactive bugs eating through the walls.
hmmm.

Peter:
I don't think that was a dream. I have been made aware through very reliable sources that the government is doing some top secret nuclear testing in the SF bay area using concentrated oil extracted from cilantro that is mixed with 2-day old water from a cast iron pot in which unsalted asparagus was cooked. Really. Be careful.
Joe
I will. Especially concerning that nasty asparagus, Joseph.

OK Pete, we've disagreed on Blackwater, government, fighting, global warming, and what makes a good poem. Those were all discussions, but NOW you've done it!!! To disparage asparagus!! Next time I see you, I am honor bound to punch you right in the nose!!!
As for cilantro, I consider it necessary for most meals, with possible exceptions as a bowl of Cheerios, and a small dish of ice cream. Curry, is a town in Nevada that is dying as it should and so should the use of such a slow poison to disfigure food.
Peter:
I told you it was real. The article doesn't mention the role played by cilantro and asparagus (must still be too sensitive to declassify) but trust me (and my sources), the truth will come out some day. Until then, I'd be careful eating anything green.

Nothing wrong with asparagus, except it makes your pee taste funny
Johnny,
Why do you taste your pee?
Peter
I meant that it makes your pee smell funny, I wrote "taste" to see if anyone was paying attention
someone is always paying attention, even if it isn't always me.
watch for the Christmas bunny, he's on his way.
