Yeah, that's probably it, Jim. Just too busy with Christmas and other reasonable things.
Chuckle! Now that's a shame, isn't it? You mean to say that maybe these dolts won't be able to waste the time of folks that have better things to do than argue with those that possess the minds of children?
As it should be! To damned bad they can't be assessed punitive damage as well. I'm sick to death of those morons. At what point in time do otherwise reasonable adults abandon such idiocy?

Harold-
Were you married in a church or civil service?

Real nuts, Real fruit. Big hairy deal! They got the color all wrong! :-)
My grannies fruitcake was dark, solid, heavy, moist, and as sweet as love! Mmmmmm! It definitely was an exercise in long term planning in the making, and I'd bet there was nearly a mortgage involved in buying the ingredients, but man, I can almost taste it!
Never had piece of pale fruitcake that could stand up to that, though some of them were pretty good for overweight dessert cakes. :-P
Mmmm, happy thoughts! Thanks!

LOL I was married on an airport in the middle of the runway. Escape was via hot air balloon. WTF does that have to do with anything?? Glenn
The first one, a church service, didn't work worth a damn. Is it possible we do way too much to appease parents? I had made my disdain for religion known when I was but a tot------
Second marriage, performed at the Heart of Reno "Wedding Chapel" has endured over 28 years. The pastor was the same guy as the chauffer, and also the photographer. I attribute that to a strong woman. I'm a bastard to live with. (yeah, I know------"Go figure")

I will see your fruit cake (pages.quicksilver.net.nz/geoffm/xmas_cake.htm) and raise you a Christmas Pudding.
If you make an anvil out of fruitcake, won't the steel parts that you hammer to shape on top of it end up having a fruitcake-like surface texture? That may or may not be a good thing...
I wonder if fruitcake can be annealed?
Yes. It needs to be heated to a dull glow over a fire using a fine Kentucky Burbon as fuel, then slowly cooled in a bed of unsalted popcorn, prefably over night.

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire. Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us) off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give them self determination under "play nice" rules.
Think of it as having your older brother knock the shit out of you for torturing the cat." Gunner

Friends don't let friends pudding and drive.
Apart from the cloves, brandy, rum, beer, dates, and prunes, it sounds pretty good. Is it as lethal as lead, or just as heavy?
Fruitcakes don't Ring when tapped! Duck tape works just as well with or without Fruitcake.
