"GRILLED" and "PEPPERED"


I should have counted the number of times I heard newscasters use the terms "grilled" and "peppered" during the recent Senate and House hearings. I asked Les, "Do you think they missed lunch?"

Les answered, "They could also use SEARED and ROASTED, just as long as they don't say lam-BASTED!" [I SO love a good pun!]

Come on, media guys and gals, I'm sure they taught about the use of CLICHES at Journalism School or maybe they were attending the Culinary Institute!

I guess it could be LAMB-asted too! ML
