I'd wanted to try one for years, except I never did because I figured I'd probably hate it because I don't like feta cheese or any other sort of cheese or yogurt, so I'd have to go to some really pathetic little gyro stand where they would be too pathetic to laugh at me for saying "no cheese" eight times during my order, and then it would be of such miserable quality that it would taste awful and I'd never again try a gyro and never know what a good gyro could taste like. But today in Trader Joe's they had gyros with no cheese and the yogurt was in a separate vial and hey, it was from Trader Joe's, so I knew that it *would* taste crappy and thus would not prejudice me towards future non-crappy gyros. But it made my stomach hurt and it left a glowing yellow stain on my desk, but Duchess, one of the office pets, seems to have survived eating the leftovers, except for the green peppers because she apparently only likes vegetables if they're lettuce or are peppers that didn't come from Trader Joe's. So you see, alt.religion.kibology is like Trader Joe's. It's where you go when you want to buy a crappy gyro that will leak yellow dye all over your desk when you're supposed to be working, in order to not spoil your appreciation of real quality gyros from the mall food court. P.S. I didn't try feeding any of it to Rambo because after Duchess ate the half a gyro, she burped real loud. -- K. Also the asbestos contractors drilled extra holes in my ceiling where they didn't install or remove anything. You won't get away with it because I can ALMOST hear the cameras buzzing all day, you evil asbestos contractors!!!
