The only thing I've found is to keep trying different words/phrases until something catches.....then if not, ask

Short, 1-2 words without quotation marks. More words with, but that makes it so the phrase has to be exact.

Italians always see things differently or is that us? I guess it's a separation of thought between the two sides.

Why in the hell do they call my Avalanche a 5th Wheel? My truck has four wheels, so the whole trailer is going down the road on only one wheel? No, it has 4 more wheels. So in reality, it should be called an 8th wheel?

America is a country which produces citizens who will cross the ocean to
fight for democracy and people who won't cross the street to vote.

Johnny, I think it was to have a "knock-down, drag-out" with those Italians you talked about earlier; probably over the chicken pizza recipe.

Maybe you should learn to backup. Empty parking lots on weekends are great for this. Some day you will be forced to backup, good to have the skill before hand.

So when you go to a restaurant and order Diet Coke, and they say is Diet Pepsi OK, when you say "No!", will they run to the 7-11 and get you a Diet Coke?

In the late 70's while in college and taking fluid dynamics I think, instead of hand calculating plots to determine temperature and pressure distribution within distillation columns, I wrote a Fortran program to do the calculation and print out contour plots showing the individual plates within the column. Had to use punch cards of course. Instructor didn't like the approach and said that computer plots are not accurate enough! I should have quit school and sold the program.

I still remember how proud I was of my first portable calculator... it ran on eight D-cells. I was so disappointed when the professor said we couldn't use them in class. His comment was REAL engineers use slide rules.

I have asked them to in the past. So far, no takers. Darn millenials.

All you health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in
the hospital, dying of nothing.
Although from the recipes I've seen y'all post I don't believe there are many of you.....
