Yep. Most places other than the US, actually.

I can report that Australia's Coke is sweetened with sugar.
Lots of corn in the US. HFCS is cheap. The price of sugar is higher (kept so artificially, I believe).
Incidentally, in the free trade agreement recently signed between the US and Australia, America insisted on an exception to protect their sugar farmers from our exports.
And the parents have special power.
It's true. I've seen the previews for
Sky High.
There is a squirrel out on the roof next to my balcony. Because I have the glass door open, the cats are sitting there looking at the squirrel. The cats aren't saying anything, but the squirrel is being quite vociferous. I had no idea the things could be that noisy.
I saw
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
last night. (This weekend: Wallace and Grommit and the Curse of the Were-Rabbit!) Loved the squirrels. Ok, I thought the squirrels around my Philly apartment were adorable anyway. I just like 'em. Not as much as raccoons and beavers, oh, and chipmunks with the turbo cute, and after that one night over at Kristin's, opossums too; but I still like 'em.
Yes, and the one time I was wistfully looking at the packages of 8 bratwursts, they noticed, and kindly made a tiny package with just 2 of them, since there was no way in hell I'd eat 8 before they went bad.
I'd think they'd freeze pretty well.
Sounds good Susan. Continued ~ma.
I'd think they'd freeze pretty well.
I do that quite often. But I don't buy 8 packs, I usuall buy 4 packs. Eight would last me a year and by then half of them would be suffering from freezer burn.
I'm sure many people here have already seen this, but I felt like sharing anyway. Apparently written by Andy Rooney, about women over 30: [link]
Alright, the agencies are annoying me. They keep sending me to law firms I DO NOT WANT (they are either too small or too far away. d'oh!). I"ve got a list of places I want to contact personally and have pulled up their websites. How does the following look for an e-cover letter? And how can I mention that I have a letter of reference from my last employer?

billytea, I think I found my new tagline from that link.
A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.
Billytea, that was a great article. I had to commemorate it with a new tagline.
Heh, Cindy, that article could be mined for a heck of a lot of taglines.
