When I was little - some things I thought - that are not so -

When we were kids my Mom's many uncles owned a grocery store. One uncle was the cashier and he always had a cup of caramel colored beverage that we couldn't figure out. It was coffee but didn't look like what our parents drank!!! It had a lot of milk in it. Dumb kids

A daddy experience. I was called to get my son at grade school. He had been stuck with a pencil and was pretty pale. No bleeding or anything. As we left the building I started peppering him with questions. Does it hurt really badly? Was there a lot of blood? Did you throw up? No to all the above. Then I asked, "What is bothering you so much." "Daddy, will I die of lead poisoning?" No wonder he was shook. A short explanation of graphite and lead and he was all smiles.

Do you remember it coming out? I've always wondered if coins can clog the plumbing.
