Only unable to figure out the very last word. Cheerio? What does it mean?
We all had training to decipher mispelled words back in the days at SR when Eric was typing on his portable. Tea often refreshes our skills too. Me too, probably.

I saw it on the Bird Forum. And yes - it's amazing, isn't it.

Cheerio is a british colloquialism (i.e. slang). It's used as a salutation. Similar to "aloha", I've heard it used in place of both "Hello" and "Goodbye". It's also a tasty oat-based breakfast cereal in the US.
So when fool or one of the other Brits says "Cheerio", you know he's saying "Bye". And when I say that George W Bush can be outsmarted by a cheerio, what I really mean is that the appointed president of the US can't match wits with crushed oats and honey.

If I could keep milk - which I can't, it always gets sour too quickly for my tastes, I'd eat granola or possibly "Peanut Butter Crunch".
How do you make pancakes, anyway?

I find that if I buy milk in a half gallon it runs out too fast, I have no problem buying the gallon size containers between me and my girlfriend we usually go through it before it gets old.
Pancakes, waffles, sweedish pancakes and crepes are all very similar. I usually use a mix for cenvenience, but you can also make them from scratch, primarily with flour and water.
If using a mix (there are several common varieties such as Mrs Butterworth's, Bisquik, Kruteaz, and usually a store brand. Common flavors are buttermilk and blueberry) you take 1 part mix and about 1 part water and mix still smooth with a fork. The batter should be kind of runny.
You heat a frying pan or griddle up to medium and lightly grease it. When it's hot you simply pour a pancake size(usually 5-6" in diameter) amount of batter into the middle of the pan and let the batter cook till the edges are dry and the middle is bubbly(about 60 seconds). Flip the pancake and cook another minute or so until browned.
If your batter is too thick you'll notice that your pancakes kind of rise(thicker than normal), and flipping them will be hard. Too thin and your pancakes will be flat. You want somewhere inbetween.. It's just personal preference, there's no right or wrong.
Serve as a stack with hot syrup and butter/margarine on a warm plate.
If making waffles you'll usually use less water and add a bit of oil, if making crepes you'll add egg and let the batter sit for an hour or so before using it. Waffles are made in a waffle iron, crepes are made using the bottom(outside) of a special skillet, sweedish pancackes using the inside of the skillet.
Waffles and crepes are usually best served with whipped cream, warmed strawberries in juice or warmed peaches in their juice. with a pich of powdered sugar.

oh yeah, i usually use the krusteaz brand pancake mix... good for backpacking as well as the kitchen.
cleanup invloves the rubbermade bowl i used to mix the batter, one spatula, and one frying pan in addition to the plate and fork.
I usually grease the pan using a few drops of vegetable oil or margarine and then wipe the pan with a paper towel to make sure that the oil is evenly distributed and that i dont have too much oil.
Total cook time for 1-2 people(3 pancakes a piece) is usually no more than 5-6 minutes.
Syrup warms up well in the microwave (it heats fast so check it every 15 seconds). Don't froget that the heat will make the air in the container expand, so squeeze some air out and close the lid before heating.
1st rule of pancake cooking: The 1st pancake almost never comes out right. Don't worry if it's burnt, unevenly cooked, or not done enough.
