@Altair77 @smiff @danwho for sure. Don't _dislike_ beignets, just don't seek them out. 12:54 PM May 25th via Twitter for Mac in reply to Altair77
@Altair77 heh. though beignets aren't my favorite thing either, I am to okra as @smiff is to broccoli & @danwho is to tomatoes. 12:50 PM May 25th via Twitter for Mac in reply to Altair77
