LOL!  Isn't it fun to flaunt your parents' directives sometimes as an 
adult?  Another thing we weren't allowed to do was to drink out of 
glasses... we had plastic cups.  So that's why it's a *glass* of 
Pepsi.  ;-)

glass bottles, so we definitely keep them. Problem is, I constantly 
forget to take them to the store, so we've got about 70 bottles 
waiting. To connect this to Carole's thread - we keep them in the 
patio :).

LOL!  Me too... I can be so scatterbrained when it comes to stuff 
like that!

And I've been fascinated by rum ever since I was eight and went to 
Disneyworld with Grandma--my favorite ride was the "Pirates of the 
Caribbean", and I had a thing for pirates for a couple of years 
afterward.  The fact that we did Peter Pan as a school play when I 
was in fifth grade didn't help matters.  My favorite PP character was 
then and is *still* Captain Hook... I always found Peter a little 
silly, and Wendy was clueless.
