re #8 - the next time someone says that all herbs are healthy and safe, offer them a cup of hemlock tea.
Yea, poor Socrates. By all means, stay away from the hemlock!
Thank goodness eating late at night will not make you fat. I get home from the gym at 11 and am a little hungry then.....chowing down on cheese probably will make me fat (any time of day).
God. I love cheese.
