Dear Fred
I am pleased that you set the record straight. Now I can buy stock in the
owners of Dr. Pepper, Tropicana and
Price Club (Walmart is a good altenative play - Sam's Club probably sells the
little grapefruit juices [not to
be confused with the little LEOs]).

I was surprised that several people asked me about my alternative choice of
drink during an SS - Jim Beam. I
am happy to report that the Beam was rotated during the contest, also at about
a 3:1 ratio to Dr. Pepper. No
fruit juice was consumed but I did have a grapefruit for breakfast on Sunday.
One chap even asked me how I had gotten such a nice vanity call. I was quick
to point out that I had done it
the old fashioned way, by applying in 1976.
