or do they provide that? I think my daughter will object.

And I want to substitute anything for the broccoli. I hate broccoli.

and I still did not vote for him. I figure (almost) everyone has ONE decent thing about them - that was his. Not enough to change my vote though.

A woman interrupted the speaker by coming on stage with a stuffed broccoli and said, "how many of you here like broccoli?" Almost every hand went up and people laughed. Then she asked, "how many of you like George Bush?" and all hands stayed down. Her closing line was, "see, broccoli wins over Bush every time!"

I did a translation and I can only guess that the English isn't the only thing messed up on that menu but it seems they're saying sweet potatos.

Best translation - Part of the perna oj kid oven-roasted lamb loin ao forno. Ac. Broccoli, alho and coradas oil and sweet potatoes.
