It's not all bad:
- Ricky Bobby: Really, smarty-pants? What did French land give us?
- Jean Girard: We invented democracy, existentialism, and the ménage à trois.
- Cal Naughton, Jr.: Those are three pretty good things.

Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

A Susquatch that's a picky eater?
What's next? A crow that can fix planes?
(That's a "callback" to another thread that went off the rails. You had to be there.)
If you mean penne? Delicious.
If you literally mean hollow spagetti, yukkk!
Wife makes the best spagetti, penne, fetucinni, stuffed shells, lasagna, manicotti, (drooling sounds) etc etc...... She takes all day to make the sauce. Yummmm.....
Yah, that's me. Lots of stuff I don't like.....
green, yellow, orange stuff
Raw fish
Meat pie
Green meat
Fish eggs
Meat pie
Liver
Trippa (cow stomach)
Cornmeal
Blood soup
Head cheese
Fat
Snails
Raw oyster
Pretty sure that's just a fraction of the stuff I don't like.
Actual hollow spaghetti

Tripe
I had that a local restaurant. It was an experience.
And does this list include "smoked" oysters? Even Sushi with wasabi? Love it all. Wasabi so potent you can momentarily experience the 4th dimension...and clear up your sinuses.

No, that's pasta, I'm saying hollow spaghetti noodles. Red sauce

Sounds like more of that "snobby French food" talk.
It's all just hollow pasta.
Oh ya, like eating a spoonful of fresh boogers.
Yup, that's ok. In fact I like almost all smoked seafood.
Not happening. Can't handle spicy foods. Not even mild BBQ sauce. My AH loses control and they don't make diapers big enough for that. Not good.

no problems... just challenges
My Lady insists on rinsing out the bottles n cans before they go in the bag...
We have 4 or 5 different bins to sort the recycling...
She also keeps a pretty tight grip on any paperwork with stuff getting scanned to files in her laptop
then the hard copy goes into it's applicable folder in the file box...
She can also cook. I found approx 30lbs I didn't know I needed back within the first couple years of living with her.
While she may not be built like some of the aforementioned brides...she makes up for it in other ways.
Today we celebrate 14 yrs of the noose, and this year is the 20th of our blind date in 05'

Had it in Florence. With enough tomato sauce and hot peppers, you can almost make yourself forget it's just shit that hadn't hit the ground yet.
We fed tripe in various forms to the dogs for years. Canned, frozen..dried was the only one that didn't immediately make me want to hurl.

Every Christmas, she usually makes extra and gives them to the neighbours.

If your wife is Italian, you probably have Panettone at Christmas, we never miss. My wife dated an Italian guy before we met, so she picked up a few good Italian recipes as well as how to speak Italian. My wife speaks numerous languages and so does her sister. Listening to those two is really confusing because they constantly change languages while they speak because sometimes there is a word or phrase in one particular language that doesn't exist in whatever language their speaking so they just change on the fly. My wife does six wordles each morning just for fun. I'm still working on English.
I asked SWMBO about the hollow Spagetti.
She said, "Yes, they sell that. It's designed for lazy cooks to cook faster. But you lose the ElDente you like so much. Don't worry, I'd never feed that phoney balony to you!"
Yes, she makes Panettone. It's what I call Easter Bread. We don't have it at Christmas, it's an Easter treat here.
My wife does wordle every morning too.
I used to do Sudoku. But I developed some rules to solve sudoku puzzles and it stopped being fun. Now I get my morning jolly's from the forum instead. You guys crack me up and teach me something new every day.
It's been said I'm fluent in English and stupid.
You mean bucatini?
My bride says no. She says Bucatinni is a special pasta best served with creamy sauces like fetucinni. It's much bigger around than regular pasta and not at all like hollow spagetti.
She lit right up when I asked her about it. She says the good stuff is made with Durham wheat. I'm guessing that some Bucatinni is gunna be in my near future.
