Woman laughs, accidentally swallows knife
Los Angeles Times ^ | August 3, 2012 | Rosie Mestel

"Unexpected Swallowing of a Knife" -- that's a grabbier title than most ones you see in medical journals.

She put the knife into her mouth and then laughed -- at which point she swallowed the knife.

” Can you imagine what kind of day they were having when it was decided to name their new beverage “Seven Up”?

And what was with the “10-2 and 4” ?

” Ah. The dreaded Typso splort. Darks, are you lurking again?”

I had 4 Typso splorts soon after Darks pinged the new UD thread....coincidence ? I think NOT!!

“10-2 and 4” was on the bottle for Dr. Pepper. You were supposed to drop everything else and have a Dr. Pepper at 10:00 AM. 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM, so you could have a burst of energy when your hubby came home and demanded supper.

We always called it “carbonated prune juice,” because that’s what it tastes like.

It’s a fantasy flavor. It doesn’t taste like anything in nature.

Heh! That pic was first used on me, alongside the pic of Raquel Welsh from 1,000,000 Years BC, or something. I believe it was in 2001 when it first surfaced. LOL!
