CATSPAW:

I saw that you made a reference to the sweet corn festival on another thread and threatened to post something disparaging regarding said festival in this thread. That's dangerous ground, my friend. I know, I know, the humor opportunities at the S.C. Festival (or any event in Millersport or near Buckeye Lake in general, for that matter) but THOU SHALT NOT DISRESPECT SWEET CORN. I am currently in the process of wheedling my mother into Fedexing me a dozen ears of Silver Queen. Sweet corn is an issue near and dear to my heart, and I prefer that it is spoken of with reverence and awe. You would too, if you'd ever had fresh silver queen (not you, Catspaw, as I'm sure you've sampled the delights, but you, the general 'Catter you, who may have been sadly deprived). So again, tread lightly please.
