@ Diane: 'Round these parts we say "dess planes" (but, ironically, people FREAK OUT if you say "illinoise")
@ Bob: Fried okra ain't so bad. Fried Acura, on the other hand, might not be so great...they ain't cheap! _________________ Lou Zucaro

Thanks Bob, but once you put 'em in the box and they get all steamy, they get soggy and it's not as good anymore...but I'll accept "Virtual Fried Okra" no problem.
Seriously, cornmeal crusted & fried, served with a lil' marinara, it's pretty tasty stuff. _________________ Lou Zucaro

I grew up as a Sew-see-yah. Then, outside of the French areas of Maine, it was Saw-see-er or other butchered versions of Saucier. I was going to keep it but Nelson was so much easier.
I think the majority of dealers around Boston say Hun-dye. I admit that I've heard it so much, I thought that was right. _________________ 006 member of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Mic. Bonded by sound.
