I live on a big round ball

I never do dream I may fall

And even if one day I do

Well, I'll jump off and smile back at you

I don't even know where we are

They'll tell you we're circling a star

Well, I'll take their word, I don't know

But I'm dizzy, so it may be so

I'm riding a big round ball

I never do dream I may fall

And even the high must lay low

So when I do fall, I'll be glad to go

I live on a big round ball

I never do dream I may fall

And even if one day I do

Well, I'll jump off and smile back at you

[Godeater2112]

My favorite ketchup is HEINZ and I am a ketchup connoisseur.

 

I don't want to take any one subject too seriously and I certainly don't want to come across as someone who is opposed to the opinions of other but...

 

If you *must* argue with me at great length about why some other ketchup is superior to Heinz then I will promptly rip you right arm off and bludgeon you with it. It will look a lot like a helicopter dropped a gigantic 8 gallon Heinz ketchup bag from 5,000 feet and it landed on your sorry ass.

 

Ketchup!

QUOTE (Tombstone Mountain @ Sep 4 2012, 01:06 PM) FAVORITE FOOD: Roladen or Sauerbraten exfrickinsqueezeme? German food Goobs--try these dishes.   Roladen--beef cutlet pounded flat, very thin, rolled with pickle, not much, just a sliver, sometimes bacon inside. the rolades are often tied together with string...AWESOME   Sauerbraten--Pork roast, better than a pot roast IMO. My mother soaks the roast for 2 days in a brine beforehand...served with bavarian dumplings.
