RPCA History
You know you've been reading RPCA too long when.....
You can't remember the precise recipe for a yummy salad you used to make, so you go to Google and do a search of RPCA and you find it back in a troll-b-que thread back in 2000.... And then spend the next 2 hours walking down memory lane, reading the old postings from back then. JEM was still alive and posting her wonderfully creative rambling posts, Hazel Az was very active, as was our Gracie and Julie Cook. The thread, being a troll-b-que and wandering off in various tangents, was 160 odd posts long, going into books, Red Dwarf, whether potato salad should be sweet or not, the differences in meaning of common words in American versus Commonwealth English, a reference to sucking out crawfish heads (a memorable occasion, that), church gatherings, weddings, US geography & history, geneology, jello, watergate, small appliances, photocopier repair, sleazy bars, elephant orchestras, a Mormon joke, the plight of the Native American peoples, waitressing tips, lemonade, what the best pickles are and how far we'll go to get them, pickled mushrooms, pickled beets, coping with a deep frier, sending brown Australian rice to Lena, lemon bars (whatever they are), steak sticks, how to prepare possums, what a *real* hamburger is, polish sausage, losing weight (hahaha), vermicilli cat toys, margaritas, the Porcelain God, and of course, a passing reference ot cats. Glad to see the group hasn't changed much in 4 years! Yowie --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
