I've been on this list just a little more than a week and already I feel at home. In that short time I've learned that many individuals unscrew the lids of the red pepper dispensers in restaurants (for which I always get odd looks), not to mention the parmesan dispensers. For years, I thought I was the only one... That, plus I got the chance to sample Calvin's incredible dried pepper blend. For anyone who hasn't signed up to be a beta-taster, I urge you to do so at once before he reaches his quota. It's *amazing*. I'm on about a million lists and look forward to no posts so much as I do those with [CH] in the subject line. Rock on with your bad selves.
