Not one, not two, but three cans of boiled peanuts in the parcel post
today.
Thanks, John.
P.S. A note included said that you and another NG'er have a bet going
about whether or not I'll puke these back up? They don't call me "iron
gut Gould" for nothing...oh, wait....umm,,,(I guess it's been a few
years since anybody could have associated me with an iron gut)...
Oh well, thanks for the peanuts.
Chuck / John,
Real boiled peanuts do not come in a can, they come steaming in a paper
(or if you must, a plastic bag). Chuck, until JohnH send you a bag of
"steaming" boiled peanuts he has not paid off the bet. I am sure he can
rig up a little mini-boiler so they peanuts arrive to you hot and steaming.
Reggie, we all know how they're supposed to come. Would you believe I drove
the entire state of Virginia looking for flea markets where some fresh
boiled peanuts could be found? Try that in January!
If Chuck so desires, I will send him some kitty litter bags so he can heat
his nuts, pour 'em in the bag, and experience the real thing (a wet lap).
Now, hush youngun!

JOhnH,
The key is to UPS him a little pot with a little flame loaded down with
peanuts still boiling in the pot. If possible, please UPS him the
toothless guy and his wife in purple stretch pants to improve the
natural ambiance of the experience of eating boiled peanuts.
As ex military, I am sure you can improvise.
I used to stop every time I saw a pot of boiled peanuts, until I
realized that one bag contains a month's supply of sodium. Nothing
better on a spring day or fall day than munching on hot boiled peanuts
as you slowly puttered on the lake.
Damn, my life sucks. I can't eat pizza, hotdogs or boiled peanuts. Can
you send me that 454 handgun back when you finish with it?
Loaded or unloaded? I'd prefer the latter to save about $37 in shipping
costs.
