Not tacos, therefore inherently inferior.

Hello, Randy, from Atlanta, welcome.
  :computerwave:

I live in LA and I was just telling my family the other day that I wanted to visit Atlanta one day. A lot of good rappers/actors have come out of Atlanta like T.I., Ludacris, Andreé 3000, Donald Glover, etc, etc, etc.

I also like your avatar, I remember seeing that character in the movie, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

I hope you like it here... and stay for a while.  ;)

We do have our share of talent. :) But Los Angeles I'm sure is teaming with talent.
The avatar: You are correct. I liked the movie although I had never read the graphic novel. I've heard it is quite different from what I've read. I just thought it was a fun film to watch with popcorn.

:mb lol:  This site is ancient, in internet years. No need to concern yourself that a topic has previously been discussed. It probably has, but so what?

Now you tell me. I went through eight pages of a topic (I don't quite remember the name) about good films to see before I made my post.

Ah yes, let's discuss this delicacy. :) I grew up with them. I haven't always lived in Georgia but my father was born and raised here before joining the army. When he cooked we were sure to get it in some form or fashion. He was a mess sergeant and was used to making cream beef gravy over biscuits which if they were big enough he'd call "Cat heads".

Anyway, we'd have beef stew (with lots of gravy) on biscuits, the cream beef I mentioned, brown gravy, white gravy... I don't remember if there were any more. It's been quite a few years since I've had the pleasure of his cooking. My family genetically doesn't get fat it seems so no one was watching their waist line. :)

I would put a good biscuits and gravy amongst the greatest breakfast foods.

When I lived in #$$^&*%$#, there was this hole in the wall little shack that had fantastic biscuits and gravy.

Those hole in the wall places can be great! I can't remember the last one I was in as it has been well over twenty years. I've lost track.

Ha! That's where it's from! I remember watching that as a guilty pleasure as a teenager. Went off and borrowed the book from the library soon after.  ;D Oscar Wilde's writing style appeals to me.

I bought the DVD after I had seen it at the theater. I took my son with me. That was a long time ago. Anyway, I watched the DVD a few times.

I'm in a hospital bed downstairs in my daughter's house. My bedroom is upstairs but I can't use it. Anyway, the TV and the Blu Ray player are up there. I wonder if the DVD survived the move? I'm pretty sure it did. I'll have to watch it again soon.  :)

I had the same reaction when I finally had some time to look at your work. It is indeed impressive: your style and the production are truly professional.

Thanks Hermes. It takes me several months to make one so it isn't an easy job for one person. :)
