Is there anything bacon can’t do?

Well, it keeps muslime radicals at bay. That's a good thing.

The best bacon I ever ate was 50 years ago.

Same here, but when we butchered hogs and put all the bacon on the tables in the smokehouse, piled salt on the top and let it drip for several days, smoked it for a week or so, yuuuuummmm.

DP and I are not big fans of bacon. Maybe if we ate lots and lots of it ... but honestly, nothing seems to affect our fertility!

I hope your son is getting better!

I can’t keep bacon in the house. If I went out and bought bacon looking like that I would eat it all at one sitting.
Covered with pepper.

But you would have had 14 children, had you not eaten bacon! /sarc

No problem. I meant that as an “I’m not worthy!” compliment. :-)

I doubt this study. After all, Mohammedans do not eat bacon and, based on the quality of the average Mohammadan, the quality of their sperm is abysmally low.

Hmmm! Mrs. MacNessa might have something to say about that! She can keep her legs crossed with the best of them!

Is she here? Ducking!
