what you miss is that since I don't feel worthy to even be on the same web page as most of you, I actually feel I deserve the insults,

Hank, I'll see your rube upbringing and raise you.
I never saw a pepper mill until I was in college and visiting my roommate's family. They took us to eat at their country club and there was a pepper mill on the table. I picked it up and was turning the top trying to figure out how to get it off (I guess so I could shake pepper on my food). After a little while my roommate's Dad asked me if I thought I had peppered my lap enough.
