Hey everyone!

I need to go back and find those things. I have them saved somewhere.

We made soap today in organic chemistry. Mine smells like cinnamon and is dog-shaped :haha:

I love cinnamon - send me one of those! :lol: :lol:

The teacher didn't like it

She said that's an odd smell for soap :haha:

I always have to buy tons of cinnamon chewing gum in the U.S. because some years ago, the gum companies here stopped producing that flavor. I guess nobody (except me) liked this kind of gum.

Have you ever tried to eat a spoonful of cinnamon?

10 Euro 10 Swiss Franc says you can't (is that much money?).

I am doing that with 4 other people on Tuesday Night after practice at the hotel. It's going to be fun. We're recording it.

I miss European currencies. Francs, Marks, Lira, Pesetas. That Mickey Mouse Euro stuff is deadly dull.

You Brits still have your own money. Some of those coins are kind of weird. The 50 pence coin is some weird shape, the one pound is a foot and a half thick, etc.

Speaking of British stuff, you guys make good gin

50p has 5 sides, as does the 20p which is smaller. I like the £1 coin - makes more sense that having a lot of ragged £1 notes which never work in machines. And yes, I gather we make great gin, but I've never liked it. I should have been a Russki. Vodka - yum yum!

Way to go Perry! Welcome to the show!

That's right, 20p is weird, too.

I don't mind a £1 coin, it's just too thick. The £2 coin is probably overkill though - that's like four bucks! Also, you probably should ditch the 2p coin.

I like gin because everyone hates it. I can keep in the house and nobody drinks it...and I live with a bunch of drunks. I want to try some British tonic water. American tonic is full of sugar which (or fake sugar) when it should have none.

You want Schweppes Indian Tonic Water. Also stops you catching malaria (hugely important in CA I'm sure).

Can't buy Indian Tonic Water in the US as far as I can tell. And yeah, we get malaria outbreaks right and left

Supposedly you can make it with carbonated water and some sort of bark that releases quinine.

Game over!

Maybe they can win 2 more in the first 7 than last year

These April in the D commercials about suck.

First of all, the Tigers can't be crowned champions in April. Second, the Pistons won't because they suck. Third, neither will the Red Wings - while they are quite good they cannot win the Stanley Cup until June.

I'm leaving now...Gotta do my homework that I've been putting off.

Great game! I am so glad i got up at 1AM for this first win!
