(lack of) moderation

Sorry duty officer - I seem to have forgotten there was a meeting.

Will there be minutes? Did anyone mention the thing about the fish? Remember, the secret of cooking fish is to make it taste less fish-like. Anyway sorry - I must have dropped off. ...oh, and what about tripe? - did anyone mention the tripe?? - are we allowed it???

Tripe is all we got. Truly offal.

"Would you like soup or salad with your meal?" (Logical XOR.)

I'm afraid this is completely illogical, so it cannot be a Boolean construct anyway. The soup or salad, if chosen, would immediiately become part of the meal, [meal n, (1) - food item or items eaten at one time for bodily sustenance] therefore could not be taken "with" it.* You can't play, for example, the second movement of a sonata "with" the Sonata.

*Unless the meal referred to some sort of ground grain or similar dry substance, which of course it wouldn't be, that's being silly and far-fetched so don't come that one, sunshine.

Truly offal.

Supreme giggles here. Your word play is stupendous Globaltruth.

Yes, there certainly shall be minutes taken with acute accuracy by Parliamentary Procedures.

Shall we commence .. ..

I'm remaining unobtrusively separate from this one......or discreetly discrete; it's part of my charm.
