Oops...
/me is embarrassed... And I had thought that I should write it correctly,
but somehow misspelled Christine's name. My apology Christine!
Bob: Yep, I've noticed how colorfully you are messing with PDMLers. ;-)

Some culinary recipes say (at some initial steps, when you are mixing raw,
uncooked ingredient, e.g. for a dough or raw meat): "Add salt and pepper
to your taste".

I think she just sings a bit. Christine A., however, is a professor in such

I am always surprised when fairly standard things are done awkwardly.
The school group photo I mentioned a few days ago has a "caption":
three lines of names for the three rows of people in the photo.
That's nice, so you don't have to painfully think of the name of that
guy
that kept taking your pencils without asking your permission.
At work if I write an email where I have to name a colour, eg because I
have
replied in-line in red, I like to write the name of the colour in a
different
colour, to mess with the recipient's head.
But, the order of lines is in reverse, i.e. the "Front row" is written
on
top, and the back row is at the bottom. Why? To make it more
challenging
to match the names, so that you would feel more rewarded in the end?
Argh!...
It reminded me of the "Ahead Stop" practice for the road markings in
