Been there, done that, got the ketchup and mustard stain. :P I used to not like them, but I especially like the dills. There used to be a steakhouse called Western Sizzlin' (there may still be one in the north central Arkansas community of Clinton (I doubt it's related to Bill and Hillary ), where I would order an extra plate of their pickles, as they had such a good flavor. Now, I can eat dill pickle potato chips, and ice cream sandwiches...and let folks wonder about me. BM> Yes - heard that on the news yesterday (Novemeber 9) - sad but not BM> unexpected.
