It's good for effect and to differentiate the flesh-eating strep from the normal strep.

that was great
that was great "What kind of man would live a life without daring? Is life so sweet that we should criticize men that seek adventure? Is there a better way to die?"

The Marathon candy bar
Lane Hartill
- The Marathon Bar was a full eight inches of braided chocolate and caramel. Introduced in 1973, the bar stood out, thanks to its bright-red package and gargantuan length. Inch markings printed on the wrapper showed that it was as long as it claimed. (The length was the result of its braided shape; it didn't weigh more than standard candy bars.) When sales didn't meet expectations, Mars Inc., took it off the shelves in 1981.
America's Marathon Bar is not to be confused with the Marathon Bar sold in the United Kingdom. Britain's Marathon was a chocolate-carmel-and-peanut product sold in the United States under a more familiar name: Snickers.
In 1990, Mars decided to change the Marathon's name to Snickers, the world's No. 1-selling chocolate bar.
But Mars didn't want to lose the candy bar's British fans. So for 18 months, the candy bar's wrapper sported both the Snickers and Marathon name, the latter in smaller type. Then the Marathon name was dropped. Snickers/Marathon went from the UK's No. 9 candy bar to No. 3.

Yeah the baby comes first. It was a tough decision suicide girls or baby. I miss everyone and well once I go on leave in may I'll have more time to get online cause I'll be home most of the day. I'm working on getting a lap top so that I can just stay in bed and get on the internet. Were pricing some and we already have a wireless router so I just need the lap top. So how have you been? I see you got a picture of you sky diving. Looks like fun. I so want to go sky diving someday. I love thrill seekers. I however could never bungee jump i'm too scared to do that. You go sky diving often?
having a big party this year at your place? If its late enough in the summer i might be able to go. The baby is due the begining of June and I am taking off till the middle of july from work. Not that I really want to go back there. I'm searching for something else until i'm done with college in a year.
Take care! Have a great weekend.

I've got sooooo much going on right now.
1. I'm running my storage facility business and trying to finagle an expansion loan so I can put up another building.
2. I'm starting Skydive (edited) and running around taking care of the 1001 little details required for that like credit card machines, airplane purchase, business cards, advertising, promotion, building lease, etc...
