Welcome, Arran, you poor sot! You're here, you're a 'Head, and you'll never go
back...

Fortunately this addiction is legal. And you've wandered upon a GREAT goup
o'folks! I, green, am kind'a a newbie. Having been here... What? Maybe two
years now. I'm into chipotles and their powder...
And just recently grad-ee-tated to Calvin's "green" powder!
Oh! 'Heads! I ate at a Estaban's on Sat, and they had a WONDERFUL hab
sauce... Dreamed up by one o'the waitresses from WI - of all places! The taste
and flavor o'habs was devine... And then the heat it! I loved it, and didn't
make a fool o'myself flopping around on the floor like a dead fish! (Tho, I
did cough and bat my watery eyes quite a bit...) It wa DE-LISH!
Deb, you may be on to something!!!
