Listening to you two brag about your pepper consumption reminded me of a
guy were used to run into at a local breakfast. When his breakfast was
served were would pour more pepper onto his eggs than I would use in a
month. Then he would sit there with the pepper shaker in hand and
sprinkle a little more on each forkful of egg before he ate it.
