You know, I just can't share your enthusiasm for them - I can't eat even one
of them without feeling sorta urpy and yucky afterwards.
Yet that first bite, if they're warm and fresh is yummy. It's the subsequent
bites that make me feel queasy later.

Oops...I _knew_ that didn't look right before. Just goes to show that
spell-checkers are useless for the crucial stuff. What can I say--I've been
gone far too long. Actually, I felt a shiver of anticipatory glee reading
in the paper just the other day that a Krispie Kreme shop was coming soon to
Maui (right across the street from my gym!), where we have plenty of other
temptations (French pastry chefs seem to gravitate to Maui) but never that
one before....

No dead horsies, I promise. I wouldn't get too attached to any local
ferrets, though....
Somehow, I see Methos as a Krispie Kreme man, washing them down w/ beer, of
course; now, if he _invented_ them, that would be a HUGE step toward
redemption for that Bronze Age unpleasantness. Or, maybe not....
Duncan--"Did you make all those donuts?"
Methos--"Yes--is that what you want to hear? Making donuts was all I knew.
... I made 10,000 donuts [per day]. And I was good at it. And it wasn't
for vengeance, it wasn't for greed. It was because I liked it. ... I was
the donut king. ... Donut king on a horse."
Duncan [looks down at his ever-widening waistline] & is shattered--"We're
through."
