There are certain rifts between married couples that never really go away. The use of some products versus others can be an ongoing problem. For instance, in the times when my wife mops the floors, she uses some half-baked (girlie) product called Fabuloso. As near as I can tell it's just tap water that has been colored with some purple food coloring and hit with some heavy perfumes that essentially does nothing.

The brown paper bag we would take home would usually consist of a pack of Camels and about fifty pieces of bubble gum. The old man liked to see how many pieces of gum I could fit in my mouth at one time which was a blast for both

No other phrase is more American than "All You Can Eat." Most other countries eat to live, we live to eat. What other country would invent a holiday centered totally around food like Thanksgiving? I always feel sorry for those poor saps on the evening news who show Americans from only the waist down until I realize that could just as easily be me.
