...once upon a time I had a dog (a poodle and no snide comments) what ate apples. Ya had to cut em up into chunks and take the peel off. If ya didn't take the peel off the little critter would climb up on the sofa and spit em in ya lap. Very same dog if I forgot to take it for a walk before bedtime would take a dump in my bedroom shoes. I had a couple of dogs that would eat fried okra but neither me nor the dogs would eat that slimey boiled okra stuff. Not even with grits. The boiled okra is pretty good if ya boil it in stewed tomatoes with a few other veggies.

Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
