They even had this in vanilla too. I remember really liking this gum. Does anyone else remember this gum??

Fart Away
Passengers aboard aircrafts are encouraged by a new study to fart all they want.
“[Not farting when the urge presents itself] holds significant drawbacks for the individual, such as discomfort and even pain, bloating, dyspepsia [indigestion], pyrosis [heartburn] – just to name but a few resulting abdominal symptoms,” the study, published in the New Zealand Medical Journal on Feb. 5, stated.
Pilots, however, are encouraged not to fart, because grossed out co-pilots can render flights unsafe, CBS Charlotte reported.
The researchers, who also found that women’s farts smell worse than men’s, encouraged airlines to embed seat cushions with charcoal to neutralize odors
Lawn Jarts Darts
Lawn darts (also called Jarts or yard darts) is a lawn game for two players or teams. A lawn dart set usually includes four largedarts and two targets. The game play and objective are similar to both horseshoes and darts. The darts are similar to the ancient Roman plumbata. They are typically 12 inches (30 cm) long with a weighted metal or plastic tip on one end and three plastic fins on a rod at the other end. The darts are intended to be tossed underhand toward a horizontal ground target, where the weighted end hits first and sticks into the ground. The target is typically a plastic ring, and landing anywhere within the ring scores a point.
On December 19, 1988, the Consumer Product Safety Commission banned lawn darts from sale in the United States due to their hazards as a flying projectile with a sharp metal point causing multiple deaths.[1]
Shortly after, in 1989, they were also banned in Canada.[2] Since then, alternatives have surfaced that are available for sale in Canada that are made of plastic.
I really miss these. some of the best times playing this game in the yard. I dont want to make light of the ones killed by this causing the ban, but these seem tame to the things people use now.
Does any one still have an original set??
Two Days We Should Not Worry
Two Days We Should Not Worry
There are two days in every week about which we should not worry,
two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.
One of these days is Yesterday with all its mistakes and cares,
its faults and blunders, its aches and pains.
Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control.
All the money in the world cannot bring back Yesterday.
We cannot undo a single act we performed;
we cannot erase a single word we said.
Yesterday is gone forever.
The other day we should not worry about is Tomorrow
with all its possible adversities, its burdens,
its large promise and its poor performance;
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control.
Tomorrow’s sun will rise,
either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise.
Until it does, we have no stake in Tomorrow,
for it is yet to be born.
This leaves only one day, Today.
Any person can fight the battle of just one day.
It is when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities
Yesterday and Tomorrow that we break down.
It is not the experience of Today that drives a person mad,
it is the remorse or bitterness of something which happened Yesterday and the dread of what Tomorrow may bring.
Let us, therefore, Live but one day at a time.
What If His people Prayed
JJesus’ resurrection changed everything! The women who were so faithful to him through the crucifixion and resurrection are there, obediently praying in expectation. As we might expect, Jesus’ mother is there praying as well. But look carefully and you will see Jesus’ brothers, once doubting and ridiculing him, now praying in expectation of their risen brother’s release of power through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Yes, they are waiting, but not idly waiting. Yes, they are praying, but they are also expecting the great work of the risen Jesus which will be done through them! God does amazing things when people who love the risen Jesus pray with expectation. So what are you waiting for? Get with a group of those who love Jesus, and pray with expectation for God’s work to be done through you.
Share Your Time
Share some time with those who need you.
They need our time more then we will ever know. It seems that we can get so wrapped up in our work or whatever else it may be and we tend to ignore those that need us the most. I received this email awhile back and found it to be sad. Sad because I know I have been on both ends of the story at one time or another or have seen it in others lives as well.
Share Your Time(author unknown)
A man came home from work late again, tired and irritated, to find his 5 year old son waiting for him at the door. “Daddy, may I ask you a question?”
“Yeah, sure, what is it?” replied the man.
“Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?
“That’s none of your business! What makes you ask such a thing?” the man said angrily.
“I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?” pleaded the little boy.
“If you must know, I make $20.00 an hour.”
“Oh,” the little boy replied, head bowed. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I borrow $10.00 please?”
The father was furious. “If the only reason you wanted to know how much money I make is just so you can borrow some to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you’re being so selfish. I work long, hard hours everyday and don’t have time for such childish games.”
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even madder about the little boy’s questioning. How dare him ask such questions only to get some money.
After an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think he may have been a little hard on his son. Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10.00, and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door. “Are you asleep son?” he asked.
“No daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy.
“I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man. “It’s been a long day and I took my aggravation out on you. Here’s that $10.00 you asked for.”
The little boy sat straight up, beaming. “Oh, thank you daddy!” he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow, he pulled out some more crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at the man.
“Why did you want more money if you already had some?” the father grumbled.
“Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do,” the little boy replied.
“Daddy, I have $20.00 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?”
Irony
A man who packed stress balls for a living punched his boss in the face and threatened colleagues when he was sacked, a court heard.
Darren Baldwin, 44, hit the warehouse manager who dismissed him and then produced two knives when other staff tried to step in.
Blackpool magistrates yesterday heard: “His victim was in fear of his life. He shouted threats like: ‘I will cut you up’.”
Tracy Yates, prosecuting, said that when novelty firm SPS said Baldwin was losing his temporary job, the manager who passed on the bad news was punched in the face.
She said: “Four or five other staff arrived on the scene where the victim Philip Dilworth had been the victim on an unprovoked attack.
“Baldwin then produced two knives and Mr Dilworth was in fear of his life.
“Baldwin showed the knives to his colleague worker and started to shout threats like ‘I will cut you up’.”
The court heard that Baldwin, from Blackpool, left the trading estate where the company was based and was later arrested.
Baldwin, of Blackpool, admitted affray and assault and was bailed for pre-sentence reports.
The company in Blackpool sells novelty products including stress balls.
Handheld Football
Long before Nintendo released the Game Boy, Mattel had one of the first successful portable gaming devices. Football, released in 1977, was simple — navigate your running back around defenders (red LED blips) to score. The wildly popular game set the stage for the portable gaming devices that flooded the market in the early 1980s. Mattel released a “classic” version of Football in 2000 without the iconic LEDs.
I remember wearing my thumbs out on this one!!
