1. That was one of its big selling points during the war. Check with Dave.

2. So now when we say women talk too much. . .BELIEVE US!

3. Did you ever dip your feet in citronella? 'Nuf said.

4. Clear alcohol like gin and vodka are less likely to give you a hangover. The clearer the liquor, the lesser the hangover.

5. I know people MUCH younger with no taste at all!

Kate, I hope for the same! in the meantime, I will now choose the one that has more protein. :-)

R,
1. Dave is THE candy man. He knows all.
2. Ummm, I think it has more to do with the fact that e can think faster and have an expanded vocabulary. (more than food, drink, sex, and sports) I do realize I am talking to one that doesn't necessarily fit that mold -O Scrabble God
3. no, have you?
4. right, stick with the clear because who wants to eat a raw egg anyway?!
5. LOL, me too!
