LOL!!

IN my youth I didn't know any other... except there were sometimes
when money was tight (I knew when we ate a lot more oatmeal for
brekkie and cheese or cabbage with noodles for dinner.) and then
there was something called "Blue Plate". I didn't like it then, but
later, when I lived in NOLA, I came to love it. OK stuff.

Forget MiracleWhip.

Alex, who knows what it like to wait while your Dad gets his
ration coupons, and to be embarassed about your clothes in
school, and to send a message in HS to those who would
beat up on you, that the *next* time, that blade would be
pushed into meat, and, No, you didn't see where it came
from. (It came from behind my tie clip.... Heh!)

Been there, no tee-shirt. Got out of it to make a decent life.
