  1. Unopened bottles of ketchup can be stored for 1 year on a cool, dark, dry shelf. Tightly covered opened bottles will last a month in a cool, dark, dry place. Uhhh....maybe we should re-think the wraps using DZ ketchup... That's okay... I'll spring for a fresh bottle at Cowboys.

  2. Funny you should mention tortillas...last night I made myself a ketchup, A-1 sauce and pickle relish wrap. I'll save you some tortillas for next week. Good idea!
  3. Serious question---I've heard the phrase "Tomato Ketchup" several times, is there any other kind? KETCHUP, CATSUP TRIVIA The first record of the word in English was as 'catsup' in 1690; in 1711 the spelling 'ketchup' appeared, and finally in 1730 the spelling 'catsup' appeared. In the 18th and 19th century, ketchup was a generic term used for various sauces whose only common ingredient was vinegar. There is more to ketchup than just tomato ketchup. Some of the many varieties that have been popular include lobster, walnut, mushroom, cucumber, cranberry, oyster, lemon, grape, and anchovy. Heinz ketchup was introduced in 1876 as a "Blessed relief for Mother and the other women in the household!" Heinz sells more than 50% of the ketchup sold in the U.S. Unopened bottles of ketchup can be stored for 1 year on a cool, dark, dry shelf. Tightly covered opened bottles will last a month in a cool, dark, dry place. Richard Nixon liked ketchup on his cottage cheese. Tomato Catsup has a high acid content (due to both the tomatoes and vinegar in it) and therefore does not have to be refrigerated after opening. It is safe to store it at room temperature, but it will taste better if kept refrigerated. Sales of Salsa overtook Ketchup sales in 1991 (in terms of dollar value).

  4. I guess a better question would be "What doesn't go with peanut butter?" What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  5. I just made myself a peanut butter, raspberry preserve, broccoli sprout wrap on a flour tortilla... It wasn't half bad.. What odd food combinations have you tried? Would you eat them again? What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  6. My man is truly amazing. He's so sweet and selfless. I have never been with someone this genuine and caring.
  7. I love fruit cake Quote Good... you can have my piece. Yuk! That sweet stuff hurts my teeth... What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  8. Curious (though not looking to place blame)... did the load get the ground speed from the pilot before exit? Did your group used the posted delay chart? Quote I didn’t think the specifics of this particular jump was important since I wanted the discussion to be about what would happen if I had collided with the canopy. I started the thread because I didn’t know what would happen and to remind people of the dangers of exiting too close, but… It was a situation where the winds changed from what they had been all day. It was a full Casa load. I didn’t see a lot of communicating with the pilot on those loads. I never saw a posted delay chart. A five-way exited before our three-way and we were supposed to give a five-second delay between groups. The first to leave my group did the spotting. He had a pro rating so I am confident that he knew what he was doing… the other two of us were supposed to wait for two seconds and practice diving down to him. He was hard to find. I saw the five-way before I saw the single guy. I thought they looked a little close, but it never occurred to me that they would be opening when they did. We broke off at 4,500. I'm glad we didn't take it down to 4,000. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  9. On one of my jumps last weekend my group left the airplane too close to the first group out. When I tracked away, I saw a canopy opening to my right that was entirely too close for comfort. What could have happened if I had tracked into that canopy as it was opening? What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  10. Now you're putting impossible conditions on it. I couldn't name a rock band, much less tell you one that I like. You'll just have to pick one for me.
  11. I haven't been to one yet. I'm waiting for you to take me. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.

  14. ...I'm a Honda/Acura man... Quote ...just not for very long on any particular car. Is there anything else in your life that has such a short shelf life? What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  15. Give me some cities to work with... The Washington, DC metropolitan area, especially Northern Virginia. I'm assuming a lot of restaurants have locations all over the USA. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  16. I hate to shop for gifts and end up getting something that someone doesn't want. I've decided to simplify the process. I'm going to give gift certificates to a different restaurant every year. That way the receiver will have a surprise about where they will be eating and a fun night out to look forward to. Where have you eaten that you would like to go back to? How much would you spend at this restaurant for two people? What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  17. No, No! Don't get him started on THAT again! I made the mistake of asking him about it at the DZ and he had the pictures saved in his camera - eeeuuuwwwww!!!! He must be really proud of those pictures. He got out his camera and showed a group of people at a restaurant on Saturday night. They were a group of skydivers drinking beer so most of them admired his artistic genius. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
  18. I don't know about "ever," but in the last week two people said: "I was so happy to finally meet you. You are warm, inviting and exhude goodness. There should be more people like you in this world." "I want you to know that I really admire you for your strength, courage, and great heart." They liked me.
