Wow, TG!!

But how can someone be born without a belly button????

and--21. In most television commercials advertising milk, a mixture of white

paint and a little thinner is used in place of the milk.

I knew someone who made food for commercials--when you see a box of cereal with a bowl of cereal on the box, the "milk" is actually Elmers Glue!! It "suspends" the cereal nicely--ewww. And you never, ever see anyone actually eating a turkey on the Butterball commercials, they'd get deathly ill!

I gotta quit smoking....

My son had kneecaps before 2. His fat rolls covered them up, but they were there. I checked!
