It's been forever since I've had steak on the grill; the grill being put away for winter, and I actually have to use the oven. Today, I was thumbing through a big, fat cookbook, (yes, I do own one), trying to figure something out. I came across a topic, "Boning Birds", that gave me a chuckle. "Let's begin with boning up on chicken breasts, because that's the only boning maneuver most of us will ever need. Once you start, you'll find it's a lot easier than you may have thought."

Me? Why would I want to bone a bird? Desper ate the chicken, not me. The chicken cried fowl.

What are you saying? I Can't Believe it's Not Better? Ok, you try churning these things out constantly, and see if they don't occasionally come out only margarinely funny - or, in this case; rancid.

Yeah, well...glad I could make up for it. It's the least I could do - especially since I've no culture. Maybe I should eat some yloghurt? There is yleast in that, no?

Ok, sorry. I'll leave it be, instead of trying to tap into the root of the problem. Barking up the wrong tree, anyway, because my puns are worst than most, and who am I to nail you for committing punocide?
committing

Punocide? And who said anything about you nailing me? Ok....LMAO...just can't go there...too funny though...that would be commiting a faux pas...

Ok, let me help....don't pronounce faux pas and only look at the spelling.
"Hey, I received one of those the other day. Cute little kitty pas coming through the faux machine." Kitty paws and fax machine.
Huh? Now, I'm confused.
Ok, I can do butter than that.

You don't have kids do you? No, I know that. You've never seen a kid send their hand prints via fax - put their hands on the glass thingy then press the button and send. No? Well, neither have I, but I imagine it can be done. Same with kitty paw prints, if they hold still enough, long enough.
Sheesh, why the hell am I trying to explain this? LMAO. Get over it.

And one of my favorite reference books is my Dictionary of Quotations.

Heck, I don't know what it means either. I just opened the book and picked the first thing I saw.
