You're welcome.

And, a few deep breaths later, my blood is down to a mere simmer, and I didn't hear anything go pop in my brain - huzzah!

Ignore my post just published and pardon me for not reading yours first! I didn't know any fast food places took food stamps. But then I live in the socialist paradise of Texas.

Some states do allow fast food joints to take food stamps as Fukui-sanRadioBarb posted earlier in this thread. Sorry for not reading it first! So far as cheap fast food 2 orders of tacos at Jack-in-the-Box is $2.14 and I actually use their 'buy 1, get 1 free' from time to time. God, I hate myself but talk about filling cheap, pink slime anus burgers!

JESUS CHRIST! John McCain is being interviewed on PBS Newshour. Due to Wonkette rules I can't say "I'd give 5 years off of my life to speed up his jowl cancer' so I'll just say "eat shit and die, motherfucker".

My understanding is they do tend to take threats of legal action for an answer ;)

"Is this Bob?" "No. Are you familiar with the legal meaning of the word 'harassment'?" "*click*"

My friend Dexter is good at finding quiet rooms. Maybe I'll ask him if he knows any I could use for this conversation.

Looks like Gawker still has it. They're shameless so not much surprise there.

When I worked for the charcuterie business (before I moved here to the farm) we bought meat and produce from Restaurant Depot, a large chain of to-the-trade businesses, sort of like Sysco. You just had to have a business permit of some kind and you could get a card to shop there. I've seen 20 lb bags of limes for $6, naturally raised pork loins for $2.79 a pound and even charcoal briquets were super-cheap. If you can find something like that nearby and can find a small business owner to use his license a group of people could save a ton of money shopping there. They have spices, fresh produce, dairy, everything a food establishment needs: <a href="http:\/\/www.restaurantdepot.com\/" target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.restaurantdepot.com/">http://www.restaurantdepot....

Get several households together and share a 40-lb bag of potatoes or onions for a small percentage of what you'd pay in a store. FOOD FOR THE PEOPLE!!!!
