Nancy,

NB> NB>>... How can you eat one of God's own creatures? With mustard and onions
NB> DS>> In a word, really. :P

NB> NB>How else...?   

NB> DS> Ketchup and onions. :)

NB>Maybe plenty of soy sauce...?  ;)

  Not if it's overly salty. :P

NB> DS> Sort of like the picture of a realtor trying to sell a home located
NB> DS> across the street from a cemetery. They finally came up with the point
NB> DS> of "quiet neighbors across the street". 

NB>At least one would have to hope they'd be quiet.... ;)

  More like the incident at the cemetery where late at night, some classical
music was coming from the graveyard. The night grounds keeper, wondered what
was going on, and he saw a light coming up from one of the graves.
Investigating further, he found a classical music composer in the grave,
working furiously on a piece of music. When asked what he was doing, the
musician asked the grounds keeper to "be quiet...I'm decomposing". :P

NB>My sister and her husband bought a house that was right next to a small
NB>walled private cemetery... interesting place to walk through... The
NB>building used to be a schoolhouse at one time...  :)

  Interesting.

NB>... I know exactly what a sextet is...  But I'd rather not say...

  I want to say that it's 6 people together singing, or playing musical
instruments...as in:

Solo - one person

Duet - two people

Trio - three people

Quartet - four people (my favorite, especially unaccompanied (barbershop or
beautyshop)

Quintet - five people

Sextet - six people

Septet - seven people

Octet - eight people

  If this isn't right, you can netmail me the reply, as I'm curious.


Daryl
