SALSA CALIENTE


Does anyone else find those new kind of pop-up ads v. annoying? You know the ones that look like pictures and follow you around and are difficult to close.

One just popped up as I search for a salsa recipe to make for the tailgating on Saturday. I figure you don't need a kitchen to cut up cilantro and tomatos. I am looking on Cooking Light's webpage... WHAT!?!?!

It shows me tantalizing recipes names but won't let me see the recipes! AOL members only! Well, hmmmph! Bastardos!

Shall us Google instead, which I already highly lauded today. Google is way to nice to discriminate against non AOLers.

This is WHERE the party ENDS,
I can't sit hear searching for salsa recipes on YOU,
And your internet-providerist* FRIENDS.


*internet-providerist (noun): one who discriminates based on a person's internet provider.

Wowsa. Who knew there was actually a www.salsa-recipes.com? What the H-E-double-hockey-sticks was I doing wasting my time on Cooking Light? (Note the non-linkage of C.L. there)
