Try spelling Evian backwards: NAIVE Why do croutons come in airtight packages? Aren't they just stale bread to begin with? You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do, write to them? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailman can look for them while they deliver the mail? Last night I played a blank tape at full blast.
