Yes, it would be an honor to dip shrimp in cocktail sauce with you sometime.

Ha ha ha ha ha ! I don't do cocktail sauce on fish, but it is a must-have for shrimp, cocktail and fried. At the old family get-togethers we would make two versions -- regular, for the old folks -- and high test, for us, with so much horseradish that the sauce was light pink. Guaranteed eye-watering sinus shots in every bite.

And you may call me disgusting, but I love to load on the tartar sauce. And lemon juice.

It's probably funnier in hindsight, but I had fun, it was basically blues songs about the white experience...

Exactly, although a classic battered haddock fish fry is scrumptious.

What about those of us who are kinda shaded? I can find a spot on myself that's anything from eggshell through beige and pink to raw umber.

Yup. In 10⁴³ years the last proton will decay and the Universe will be over.

I've always figured Teddy Roosevelt was the last Republican that carried the original strain. After his chosen successor, Taft, proved venal, corrupt and hateful (new Republican DNA). TR came out of retirement to run against him. Unable to secure the nomination, the progressives split off into the Bull Moose party. They were never really welcomed back, though there were some reasonable centrists left behind. This was well before Nixon's southern strategy, which actually helped the democrats become a better party, and the reps just finished their metamorphosis. End result: this Kafkaesque/Orwellian nightmare.
