Thanks, KQ! How thoughtful [Smile]

I'm going to tell you this, but don't let anyone else know - You are by far my favorite newbie. [Smile]

Wow.

*looks at reg. date*

I can hardly even remember life without Hatrack.

Thank you, KQ. I will send you a bag of virtual potato chips for Valentine's Day, with a fine ketchup to dip them in.

Wow, thanks, Elizabeth! I only eat Heinz, though.

Not even Dijon ketchup?

Ohhh !! Thank you very much for this beautiful card.

Annie, personnally, i prefer the moutarde of Dijon [Big Grin]

(Dijon Ketshup ! What a strange idea)

I taste the virtual chocolate : It's a Léonidas !! My favorite !!!

Choobak, it's a line from If I Had a Million Dollars by the Canadian band Barenaked Ladies.
They say, "If I had a million dollars, we wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner" (a cheap, unsophisticated instant food) and then they say:
"But we would eat Kraft Dinner."
"Of course we would, we'd just eat more."
"And buy all of the fanciest ketchups," (again making fun of cheap, non-sophisticated food)
"Like Dijon ketchup... mmmmmm."

Coincidentally, I used this song when I was learning French grammar in high school so I could remember how to employ the conditional. I translated it into French like this:
"Si j'avais un million de dollars,
Je t'achèterais une maison,
Et si j'avais un million de dollars,
Je t'achèterais des meubles pour ta maison..." [Smile]

My favorite valentine poem I gave to all my teachers...

"Would you be my Valentine
And raise the meager grade of mine?
But if my heart don't turn your head
Would you accept a ten instead?"

The Hatrack version....

Would you be my Valentine
And add your post count up with mine
And if we multiply by three
We may equal to Dagonee
