Normally it is "poisoned" so you can get out of there as quickly as possible, paying the bill and eating as few as possible. Same for the chicken's seasonings and for the fried cheese, all made so you can feel satisfied earlier than expected.<BR/><BR/>"Tapas" are a spanish word, in portuguese they are "Petiscos". You get then normally for company to drinking beer.<BR/><BR/>Don't know how pricing is there in Texas, in Brazil it goes from (all US Dollars figures) $7 to an average $15, and going to $30-40 for the luxury ones (mostly for tourists). The drinks are the ones that cost absurdly. Alternatively to the all-you-can-eat roving ("rodízio") ones, you have those where you pay-per-weight, i.e., you fill the plate with what you want, and later set it on the scale to price it. <BR/><BR/>Maybe your ulterior motive is a comparison between catholics and protestants and pick-what-pleases-you religions by using a metaphor?Rafael Crescihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02396236586049443318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-89670941705949943972008-10-11T22:14:00.000-04:002008-10-11T22:14:00.000-04:00Well, Father, at least your alibi is safe.

The Gospel is from Matthew Chapter 22. Jesus speaks and uses an analogy of The Kingdom of God compared to a huge wedding feast. <BR/><BR/>I've never eaten at the restaurant that Father referenced to in his post- I wonder if it's relatively new because I don't remember it being at the Dayton Mall when I last visited, but perhaps I never paid attention to it.matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09211273909858732327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-78476409035777845372008-10-11T17:59:00.000-04:002008-10-11T17:59:00.000-04:00You are trying to bring in Brazillians who are sea...You are trying to bring in Brazillians who are searching, via the internet, for orgies, to your site so you can help them?<BR/><BR/>Or are you going to be talking about "feasting" in your homily tomorrow?<BR/><BR/>Or are you wanting the google search to be unique, only one for "Fox Brazillian Orgy"?<BR/><BR/>What did I loose, cause I know I didn't win!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
