I just heard one of my cow-orkers, obviously on the phone with her kid, say "Have fun! Make good choices!"
I didn't think any parent actually said things like that.Mine did. Those very words.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

What the hell is Moxie? (The brand name)
Some nasty-tasting soda pop, far as I can tell.
My mother really said, "Be good. If you can't be good, be careful. If you can't be careful, name it after me."
Old school soda brand.
Moxie is still for sale, I think, in some states. It is a dark-colored soda, and then there used to be a brand fo flavored Moxie seltzers I drank when I was a preteen. Moxie soda I have avoided, but the seltzers were quite good.
I think Moxie is regional to the northeast, so I am not surprised it is Ted Williams shilling for it.
Har. I just thought this kid who came off the elevator was the messenger, but no -- he was a grad student. Ah well.
I'm leaving anyway.
Grad students always need money, Jesse. Give him the package and a ten and see where it gets you.
I have a good friend who loves Moxie, and has the Ted Williams magnet on his refrigerator.

it's a brand of soda. I was actually in a bar last week and they had it on the menu.
