    I don't keep tabs even on ME, you want me to keep tabs on everyone else?  Oh sure. 

    I'm brain dead, remember?   I have 30,000 points so far.  (bowing)

    We are keeping it clean and changing it to linguini and pasta shapes now.

  • I am a linguini-linguist: I study the origins of pasta names. "Linguini" means "little tongues", "farfalle" means "butterflies", "rotelle" means "little wheels", and "rotini" seems to be a made-up English name, probably derived from "rotate", as is there is no Italian noun "roto".

    US Italians (deliberately using bad English, so chill everyone) love to name pasta shapes with the WEIRDEST NAMES.   But PRIEST STRANGLER?  THAT IS ONE FOR THE BOOKS!!!!!
