But in my post I was using "tomatoes" in a phonetic contex. As in a situation where there is a disagreement on the proper pronunciation of the word "tomato". It's far easier to get my intention when it is vocalized, rather than written. So that screw up is entirely on me.

The point I was attempting to make was, using the old saying, "Daylight is the best disinfectant" or "Sunshine is the best disinfectant" have both been used from time to time.

"Tomatoes, tomatoes"; "six of one or half a dozen of the other" etc.

We ( Cha and I) were just having a much needed moment of lighthearted fun during a distressful period in American history.

Btw, tomatoes are awesome but, taste wise, they ain't what they used to be.

Manoa Lettuce, those tomatoes, chunks of marinated tofu, chunks of pineapple, macadamia nuts, shredded carrots, shredded beets, and slivers of red cabbage .. sprinkled with flax oil and lemon juice.. all organic of course!

Did I forget anything?

There's so much he can't say in public than he could say in private. He knows what those limits would be so let's do it. Primetime testimony would get bigly ratings.

If this is true the only reason would be so he can further infuriate Trump. The fact is he could share more testimony in a closed door session, but it's the public ones that drag Trump through the mud and humiliate Trump further.

This smells a bit like a vengeful act... I like it!!
