Thanks MICHAEL ~ love the flow and shape of this form (2 4 6 8 2) it is very appropriate to the subject of the poem ! Love the painting ~ Trees are great \"role models\" and survive awful conditions ~ because they are rooted and grounded in LOVE (Earth) ! Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN Please check my Flower Poem & Fusion ~ Thanks B.

Great message in the poem Michael, but you should have accompanied it with one of your cartoons :) Pizza can be made in a very healthy way, but I agree with swingline. Chefs from all over the world have their own take on it. But, nonetheless, have a slice (small one) with some greens alongside, that is my thought. Although, I rarely eat Pizza, unless I make it at home with tomatoes from the garden. :)

Pizzas are OK as you rightly say Michael as a snack or lunch but not as a main meal.
Good write and good painting.

Beautiful painting ! I used to love pizza . Now I don\'t . They used to use real cheese , great sauce and toppings that pleased . You would think you\'ve hit oil . So much grease , maybe you could get $5 a barrel .
No wonder you can get two large pizzas for $10 a pop . But before you do , just think about it and stop .

Anything about tropical storms I love . Though if I were castaway that would be the last thing I would want . One nagging question I have . Is there a missing word after \'fresh\' or is it all to be my imagination .

YOUR ABSTRACT MICHAEL ~ is very Kadinsky ~ very rhythmic and musical ! A live Classical Music Concert is the closest we ever get to \"Heaven on Earth\". Some of my extended Family are Music Teachers and it should be a compulsory subjects up to 16 ~ it is very important to Community adhesion. Scrap TRIDENT and channel the money into Education and the NHS ! BRIAN

Abstract ? I see none in either the painting or poem . Words make music in our head\'s and paintings decorate the walls of our hearts . And all the arts are a Symphony .

DINING ETIQUETTE
MendedFences27 said:

All manners have left the table, or so it seems. The best of the best restaurants now allow casual dress ( code for slovenly). Eating at fast food places is like shopping at Walmart, you never know what you will see. Waiters have never learned and are a product of the \"new responsibility.\" Maybe it is better to stay home and avoid the torture that is dining out. - Phil A.

DINING ETIQUETTE
Bibbeck said:

The echo of \"hold your cutlery properly\" and \"sit up straight\" from my parents has stayed with me all these years. It\'s not really just good manners that are disappearing, but simple polite consideration in thoughts and actions, which doesn\'t take a minute of effort.

Impressive display , I\'m amazed at the attitude . Did Jesus wash his hands before he rubbed the wheat in his hands to eat . Did he not say it is not what goes into the body that defiles but what comes out of the heart .

I agree Michael. Years ago I was a bartender and waitress. It is unreal today that servers do not even come back to thank you for leaving a nice tip. I really think it is because they cannot do the Math. And, they get your order wrong as well. So, mostly, I just order an appetizer and take out. Rather cook at home and have a nice glass of wine. So much more enjoyable.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thank you Michael for reminding us of decorum ~ In my Family the table was always properly set for Dinner (7pm) and good manners observed. I do like to stay in 5 Star Hotels where one must dress for dinner (no ruff in the buff) and the Waiters do know their wines. I have dined at the Top Table in Balliol College Oxford and Queens College Cambridge where the Etiquette of Dining is always observed and in other Universities too ! Too many Families now dine on fast food a la sofa watching telly ! I love formal Dinner Parties ~ I am an Edwardian at heart are you ? Thanks for caring ~ love the cartoon ~ Please check my SUNRISE ~ Brian ~ Have Dinner Suit ~ will travel !

Michael Edwards said:

Must agree that good manners and dress sense do not necessarily go hand in hand. Having said that I feel more comfortable knowing I look good than I would if I was looking scruffy.

Have to agree about talking loudly and spoiling it for other diners - one of the bugbears about eating in Italy, Spain et al
