I had no idea there was a Hungarian Navy at some point, let alone that they had a dreadnought. Spent most of the war safely tucked away in the harbor. First time they venture out -- boom, hit by (Italian!) torpedoes. There you go..

Doesn't look too bad.

Do they have wienerschnitzel mit bratkartoffeln around there?

Better to stick to the Bourguignonne.

Actually, I had escargots, and then magret de canard this evening. Le tout arrosé d'un vin rouge quite good, and then some chocolaty confection and a glass of desert white wine. Man, oh man, that was good. Why don't you get outta schnitzel land, and try Charlie grub, for a change?

Careful Tecs: you eat escargots and the next thing you know you'll be in drag, singing l'Internationale on Harvard Square.

Careful, Charly: you eat this bacon sundae and next thing you know, you'll wave the Gadsden flag at Tea Party rallies.

The lovely people in the fast food industry feeding America one heart attack at a time.

Ooh, Messers Pissy-pissy! I saw a bacon sundae on a menu at a high-dollar Frenchy place in Boston last year.

Get your coronary snobberies back in the roughage bin where they belong: eventually in a toilet full of diarrhea.
