I think his DaVinci Code reader malfunctioned.


Well, that's what he gets for spending less than $100 and
designing it with vacuum tubes in the 1990s...


I wonder if all those "children he parented" (implied) were
by Immaculate Conception?


I think that Jim was bottle fed.


That would explain much! :-)

While I wouldn't turn down a Bud, I much prefer a
Yuengling Black & Tan or a Guinness Stout. Or a
Genessee Cream Ale.


PAH!!!! Genny Cream Ale. Long, long time since I sipped an ice cold one of
them. Hey, they still brewing the 10-Horse Ale? Or, is my memory fuzzy and
Genny Cream IS the 10-Horse Ale. I remember the 10-Horse nearly when it was
new, I was up there for a visit. It was stout, but it'd give a grin on 1/2
a one!


As for what is fed to babies, it should be remembered
that for a couple of decades in the middle of the
20th century, the "professionals" and "experts" told
us that bottle-feeding was *better* for infants than
the "old-fashioned way". The newfangled "formula"
and all the attendant apparatus was "scientific" and
"progressive", they said. Of course it took a whole
pile of hardware (bottles, sterilizer pot with lid and
bottle rack, nipples, nipple rings, seals, bottle tops,
tongs) the formula itself, and a kitchen to do all the
processing to do what "the old fashioned way" did semi-
automatically.


Whatever's the advertising win for the "period" is what is supposed to be
*ahem* healthy.


The "old-fashioned way" was
put down as being vaguely third-world, Luddite,
"horse and buggy" and inferior both physically
and psychologically. Moms who tried to keep the
old ways met with resistance, opposition and
insults.

After all, the "professionals" and "experts" knew
best, right?

As if!

Yup.

Yes, but it's an acquired taste. Some odd stories about
why it's called that....

Or, is my memory fuzzy and

Nope, two different things.

I'm getting thirsty!

BINGO!!

The "old fashioned way" didn't sell as much apparatus as the
"new scientific" way.

Down here, back in the day when having a few was more regular for me, there
was a "new" ale called Big Mouth Mickey...'least I think that's what it was.
Don't remember the brewer. It was cheap, as I recall, and some pretty
darned good stuff, taste-wise. We used to buy a 6-pack and have leftovers
after a night at the drive-in, because the stuff was stout enough on one or
two to make ya sit there during a drama movie and grin through the whole
thing...LOL

When I had my babies, I knew the hospital gave a "care" package of samples
of all kinds of stuff when leaving. Well, when some girlfriends had their
kids, a few months before me, it was Huggies (or whatever competitor brand
it was back then--can't remember now) and a baby food that was out back then
made by, I think, Beechnut, or some such anyway. When I was leaving, it was
Pampers and Gerber. I asked about that and they said it was whoever won the
"contract" each period that determined whose "stuff" was given out. Good
grief.

Same, by the way, with prescription drugs--for a pretty good majority of the
time anyway. Whatever a salesperson is peddaling at the doctor's office and
leaves a better impression (read: more free samples) is what the doc pushes
for that malady....
