I'm talking apples, you're thinking oranges

I like apple pie and Tropicana orange juice.

Why is the USA known as the the apple pie country?

Why is NY known as the Big Apple?

Apparently that's what I've been doing lately. Granted, I can be a b*tch, but I'm not a particularly vindictive person, so my recent posts in here were NOT based on that. Really. Trust me on this, because I've been thinking a lot about it.

So to the ones in here that even have a clue what I'm talking about, I apologize. I didn't mean to insult anyone's intelligence. Its my own intelligence I'm beginning to question. The situation was sort of amazing to me and I thought I was "sharing" it with my friends.

PS I still don't understand the mass hysteria though.

Doesn't SnoozeControl say it all. It's the fault of the nick. You must be fine...you are here:-6

This came up somewhere the other day.

Someone said carmine was blood from bugs or beetles and its in Tropicana apparently! :p

Snooze, there ain't a one of us here who hasn't at some point or another done or said something we regret later. Either here or in the real world. We're human, fallible. No big deal. Forget it and move on, quit beating yourself over the head, kay? :yh_bigsmi
