> Dear Abby,  
> Quite by accident, I recently found that it is intensely pleasurable to press my groin against my bread-maker while it is going through the “knead” cycle. I’m a virile man and in good health, so I find myself using the bread-maker two or three times a day. More on weekends. To get to my problem, do you have any good machine-friendly bread recipes?

Dear I Knead U,

I’m afraid I don’t have any good receipes; I kneed my bread by hand 😉

I recommend the bread machine mixes at your local grocery store, or [this book](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0696218534/qid=1110564741/sr=2-3/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_3/104-1584986-5875936). I urge caution, however; studies have shown that making bread several times a day can cause vision loss.

Dear Mr. **Blue** ,

Tsk! Is that any way for a cheerleader to act?? :dubious: Leave poor **eleanorigby** alone! I see what you’re doing over in that [other thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=306305&page=1&pp=50).

However, you can certainly write me a letter telling me what you’d like to do to her. 😉

Bread-makers are inexpensive at Wal-Mart.

Evidently, the straightdope messageboard is the place where people want to be stalked.  
Now, I just gotta pick which one.

None of the women I stalk ever seem to ‘want’ it ☹

Is that a statement of fact, **Blue** or a question for Dear Abby?

HEY! I am way better than an inexpensive bread-maker at Wal-Mart.

NO! Wait! I meant…

Well, that was a good answer, you can have the 10 cool points, but the correct answer is (from a Dead Kennedys song): Dear Reganomics Victim, Consult your clergyman, make sure the body’s blessed and everything should be just fine.
