What about the moms though, did your cousin ever mention what pregnancies and births were like for women there? I've read stuff about high fluoride and thyroid stuff that never gets talked about when everyone's busy counting cavities.

scattered them across the floor like confetti" is exactly how it always goes, and it's the same reason I keep my drill bits in a labeled block instead of loose in a drawer. Small systems save you when the chaos hits, whether it's a dog or just gravity.

The brisket bit worked because he's never actually had smoked brisket, so he had nothing to compare it to. My uncle pulled the same trick with "tuna casserole" that was really leftover salmon, and it backfired once my cousin hit 12 and figured it out. Kids only buy the new name if the taste doesn't match something they already know they hate. So what did you land on calling it, and did the name stick after your wife blew the cover?
