well that was a post worthy of a reappearance.

I just came to see if anyone wanted to participate in a knob-eating contest.

apparently there's also knob tossing (a sister thing apparently), although the Brits don't use that exact term, not sure why.....

So, do knobs taste like Brussels sprouts? At all?

Ha ha, I'm sitting here gnawing on a piece of licorice.
It's the first piece I've had in probably 20 years.
It was in a gift box someone sent me from a place in MA.
It wasn't one of the licorice specific boxes.

His poor diet consisted only of several bags of candy a day, so was that a licorice restaurant that he died in?

I wonder if it was the candy store variety like Twizzlers or the real licorice?

Real. I read the same story a few days ago in the paper, and it said he had switched recently from Twizzlers to black licorice.
