The first, brings childish delight to a breakfast and the second calls to mind an older woman telling stories of her youth. _________________________ "The One And Only Me"

essaychess Mainstay Registered: Sat Feb 12 2000 Posts: 632 Loc: Florida, United States	Since Geisel is Dr. Seuss, I'll guess Green Eggs and Ham to go with Hegley's Fried Green Tomatoes Yum Yum Go ahead and post the next one, Hegley. _________________________ Mike
