Does this mean that Frank’s middle name is “Mikey” ? …That’s a pretty good “commercial” sounding name… what a “Life” he would have!… – Or maybe his middle name is Bran-Done …. – If her friend’s daughter is on a crayon diet, and is still in diapers, that may be the one time it is somewhat pleasant to change her diaper… just don’t hang that art on the wall, though….

Nancy is still fine-looking, even with her little reading glasses perched on her nose. And Frank is pretty casual about his breakfast food; after all these years, I guess he has a right to be.

Fruit Loops have NEVER had but one flavor.
Meh~tdology, fka Pepelaputr over 10 years ago
“…how much does fruit flavor in a can cost in bulk ??”-—They could always fake it like they do by passing off bits of apple fermented in “natural & artificial” flavors and colors to make “berries”.(Red tincture made from crushed insects is “natural”.)
