When a traditional housewife feels that her husband has not taken her out to dinner in far too long, she can make a tuna casserole. The husband comes home and asks, "What's for dinner, honey?" The reply is, "Tuna casserole." To which he responds, "You know, it's been a long time since I took you out to a nice restaurant." The tuna casserole gets fed to the dog because dogs will eat damned near anything. -- --Bryan For your safety and protection, this sig. has been thoroughly tested on laboratory animals.
