Do you have good taste?

[Slim]

My taste buds are not real sensitive.

I have friends down in the New Orleans area that could drink a bottle of Tabasco without flinching, something I would never try, but I'm told that I like things moderately spicy.  I'm no piker, but I'm no Texan either.

According to my taste buds there are three kinds of coffee: strong, weak and bitter.  I don't know (or care) which mountain the beans were grown on or whether it was made in a machine in a fancy restaurant or in a tuna can over a campfire.  Coffee is coffee.

There are two kinds of wine: Pasta wine and sitting around wasting the afternoon wine.

There is one kind of beer: Pizza beer, this encompasses all the shades and brands.

There are two kinds of cigarettes: menthol and normal.

I can't tell if a meal is the product of hours of labor or if someone peeled the plastic back to vent.

Does this mean I'm easy to please?

I've been told that I taste like chicken.

Is this another one of those comments that you're going to delete in a minute?

[Stir Young]

Your tastes parallel mine, to a large extent, Slim, although your knowledge of wine is much more encompassing.

I'm a Redneck.

Do you like those Snyder's Honey Mustard pretzels too?

[Stir Young]

Are those the ones that come in the big plastic jars at the Wal-Mart?  If yes, then I do like 'em!

My tastes are generally pretty pedestrian. I like instant coffee, music of the 50's 60's 70's, gas saving cars, Mickeys beer, box wine, steak, beans, salt water sea food. Yes, I like pizza, hamburgers and hotdogs. I like baseball, basketball, and football on the pro level as well as college football and basketball. I listen mostly to ESPN radio. I love Scrabble, chess, and cribbage as well as gardens and landscaping my summer home.

I do like an occasional latte or expensive red wine, particularly merlots. I like classic literature, classical music (never developed a taste for opera), great paintings and sculpture, and Shakespeare. I love books and read history in particular and American history on top of that, and still on top of that Alaskan history. I love reading the Oxford History of America. Within my interests in history I love reading about the Civil War and the founders/founding era. My favorite historians are James McPherson, Joseph Ellis, and Gordon Wood. I like PBS and National Public Radio. Also I like to read and study methodology and pedagogy in education. I am an academic by nature but simple in what gives me pleasure.

I have a very diverse and eclectic set of friends; wife that is any man's dream as she is intelligent, kind, and though not required of sought out - beautiful; - however, it is her inner beauty that has made life together so special.

Okay those are my "tastes".

You must be a Scientologist.

Either that or you've sold your soul.  Where can I get a life like that?

[Apposite]

It's about being myself without feeling self conscious of my simplistic ways. There are people who will place themselves above me but I tend to shrug it off with indifference.

Oh man, a little grammatical editing of would have really paid off here!  Oh well, you get my tastes "unedited"!

[Slim]

Don't make no never mind (I heard that on 'The Waltons').

[Apposite]

I'm just that way; it grates me to read something I wrote that is less than correct, fluid, or otherwise syntactically awkward. So I personally want to look good for the camera:)

I have champagne taste on a beer budget.  :-)

I have had a meal at a very upscale NYC place that cost near $500 for 3 of us.  Can't remember what I ate.

Had BBQ pig from a backyard smoker for free and it was wonderful!

I love caviar and honey mustard pretzels..not together though.
