ARE YOU A CHEESE LOVER? - $12

ARE YOU A CHEESE LOVER?

Hello,

I saw your ad on Craigslist asking me if I am a cheese lover http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/hsh/2158002442.html.
Answer: Totally.
You say you are selling "four 6" plates with the names of all the cheeses on them". I am very interested but I was thinking that there is no way that they have the names of all the cheeses on them. But as you know (assuming you are a fellow cheese lover) some cheeses are more important than others. Do they have "cheddar" written on them?

Let me know.

Response
Actually, it is at the rounded edge and says "eddar." Since there is no such cheese as edder, I would imagine that represents 5/7 of the word "cheddar." I also have the large serving plate on which to hold the cheeses and crackers. I don't think I listed it.

Every cheese I eat when I go to Europe tastes better than the ones I eat here. Maybe because low-fat doesn't exist there.

First of all, thank you for the unsolicited information regarding your level of cheese enjoyment as a function of your location. I find that type of thing extremely interesting. I really enjoy watching baseball in Japan.

Now let's get down to brass tacks about this cheese plate deal. If I understand correctly, approximately 5/7 of each name of all the cheeses is written on the rounded edge of the plates. For example, "mozzare", "gruye" or "nster"... and so on. I guess that makes a lot more sense.

Also, there is a new plate on the table now... "a large serving plate on which to hold cheeses and crackers" you say. So, are the original plates not suitable for holding cheeses and crackers, and if not, what IS their function? Also, what fraction of the cracker names are written on the outer edge of the large serving plates?

I am hoping we can clear up these issues soon.

Response
The large plate is the serving platter. The smaller ones are for your guests.

You are very funny. Are you a stand-up comedian, a writer, or a NYC teacher? Or, if you are discussing "issues," maybe you are a therapist.

My boyfriend is a CPA. I can have him calculate the percentage of each cheese name down to decimal places......

FOCL
I am funny aren't I? I should have a blog in which I harass, for no real reason, people selling things on Craigslist. I would call it http://www.foundoncraigslist.com/ . Good idea?

BTW, are you implying that there is a CPA that has talked to a girl?

Pig Face Candy Dish - $8

Pig Face Candy Dish

Hi there,

I saw your ad on Craigslist for the Pig Face Candy Dish http://montreal.en.craigslist.ca/hsh/2162106744.html. It is a very special looking item. I think it would go great in my living room full of candies. My grandchildren could come over and take candies out of the bowl slowly uncovering the face below. I can just imagine their squeals of joy as they realize that the candy bowl looks like a mask that might be worn by someone fabricating an article of clothing out of human skin.

Is it still available?

BAR and EAT serving dishes BNIB - $5



Hi

I saw your ad on Craig's List for the BAR and EAT serving dishes BNIB http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/hsh/1450460881.html . I was wondering if you had any other words available. You see I am an elementary school teacher and just started a unit on bats. I was hoping that I could serve my class some snacks in bowls that say "BAT ERA". Let me know if you know where I can get such items.

Thanks,

Response

Hi,

Sorry, only have BAR and EAT - I have many, so you could spell longer words if you wanted (consisting of A, B, E, R, and T, of course).

I'm available anytime tomorrow and Friday, limited on the weekend.

Let me know,

FOCL

OK too bad I would have liked to do business with you.
