Food... The grub we're dying for.

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

Hmmm...with M-I-L leaving TRF, I wonder if there will still be a cigar vendor out there.  I like a nice Macanudo, Romeo Y Julieta or Acid after some good chow and while I'm walking about faire. 

*Cigar in one hand and beer in the other*

Damn, didn't even think about that. Gonna have to stock up before going into faire I guess.

I've already have a tin of Macanudo Ascots on my shopping list.

I'm not sure you can say that on here...

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

Too late.   

[Sir Martin]

Right now I've got a hankering for one of the delicious Gyros they serve at TRF's Agora area.   Not sure if "hankering" is a Greek word, but it works for me.

Your Texan is showing, Sir Martin.

I'm sure there's a word in most language's that would translate into Texan for "hankering".  And if there isn't, that language would be of no real use here in Texas.  One of those Gyros does sould pretty good right about now.

Greek sausage to go with it...

Wondering how in Texas they may pronounce the word gyro 

[RenStarr]

We just say "Gyro". 

Example:  I'm fixing to head over the Agora area cause I got a real hankering for a Gyro.

I was taught by some Yankee Greeks that it was more like "yee-ro". But it might have been their accent.

that's actually close, soft of the 'y' and just need a tiny bit of 'r' trilling

[Butch]

I'm told it's pronounced "year-ohs"; with a light rolling of the R, so it sounds more like " yid-ohs"
I say "geer-oh" and when people insist I'm saying it wrong, I offer "at least I'm not saying 'JHY-row'"

Then I look at Gauwyn's astrolabe, and see it's time for another beer!

I'm looking at it right now - time for an ale
