It would bear an unmistakable bumpersticker: Honk if You Love Cheeses!

With reference to the current ‘oral sex’ thread - do you not think that this promotion would give rise to its very own bumper-sticker **‘I ATE THE VIRGIN MARY LAST NIGHT’.**?

Much sought after by young studs, and banned by the Catholic church 😉

**Cheeses of Nazareth** would be an excellent name for a cheese store in Jersalem.  
And remember kiddies, Cheeses is the _rocque_

Well, that’s metaphorical. It’s meant to refer to producers of all dairy products.

What I want to know is, what’s the schedule for the Our Lady of The Griddle tour? Is she coming to a city near me?

I don’t care if it rains or freezes, long as I got my grill-ed cheeses…

To the tune of Whitesnake’s _Here I go Again_:  
I don’t know where I’m going  
But, I sure know where I’ve been  
Hanging on the promises  
In grilled cheese of yesterday  
An’ I’ve made up my mind  
I’m gonna cash-in big-time  
And now Mary is my friend  
Mary is my best friend

Tho’ I keep trying different toasters  
I never seem to find what I’m looking for  
Oh Lord, I pray  
I need an image to gaze upon

Here in my tasty grilled cheese  
To bring the masses falling to their knees

_Chorus_  
And now I seems that I can’t eat my Provolone  
‘Cause the Virgin Mary’s gone and called it home  
All I wanted was a sandwich of my own  
An’ I’ve made up my mind  
I’m gonna cash-in big-time

And Mary is my friend  
Mary is my best friend…_ad cheeseatum_

I hope she performs some songs from the musical classic “Cheese & Rice, Superstar.” Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Lyrics by Tim _Rice_.

You need to contact Kraft and tell them you have a jingle…

Cheese and Rice  
Superstar.  
We’ll make your ass fat

Special props to **Sevo** who obviously was avoiding work by thinking about cheese.

Nicely done.

I just know we are all going to hell for this thread. At least we will get to take a group photo (say _cheese!_) and I will get to meet **Shirley Ujest** …

**Annie** , you know you’ve ruined that song for me forever, doncha? Nevertheless, you and **Sevo** need to head to Nashville. Fame and fortune or a home in the sticks await you.

Sounds to me like the perfect place to serve cottage cheese.

You are my first husband and you are stalking me, aren’t you?
