Chicken Cordon Bleu! Damn! I should have listed that first, no, second.

But, until my cholesterol goes down, no CCB for me.

Bummer.

(And, FWIW, JP's a not-so-secret fan of Gray's Anatomy, too.)

JP,
I'm counting on you to keep Footpad under control.

Footpad,
The Chicken Cordon Bleu is a a lite recipe. Plus I take Crestor. But we all die eventually, so what the hey. And I knew JP like Grey's Anatomy. We all should be. It makes people think Seattle breed's beautiful people :}

Nice to know a little more about you.

This looks suspiciously alot like that last Meme you guys circulated around the town. What in the hell does "Meme" stand for, anyway?

Ok .......so I am the only one who actually enjoys eating his country national emblem of emu and kangaroo.

Lyric flight is also one of my daily reads, and what's not to love about Braveheart. What DOES meme stand for?

Miss Bliss, Well, glad you learned a little more about me (emphasis is on 'a little').

THE Michael and Kat, a "meme" is a phrase first used in 1976 by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. It refers to a unit of cultural information transferable from one mind to another. Dawkins created the word by shortening the Greek "mimeme" (something imitated. It is pronounced "meem." In the blog word a meme has come to mean any idea to get other bloggers to imitate or write about.

Whitesnake, my emu and kangeroo eating friend, you are likely the only one that eats your national emblem (unless someone confesses to liking a nice bald eagle stew).

humm. I was flattered until I saw I've been tagged. Too burned out to respond tonight, must think. Right now I need to check the oven, I think my bald eagle & spotted owl pot pie must be done.

Hayden,
So many memes, so little time. Sorry.
