Here's a Good one..........Remember Horlicks Malted Milk Tablets........I found them on a Internet Candy site....so I ordered a couple of boxes of them as they are still made in England, so.....I've been passing them out to people who remembered them......Cool........Fast Forward, We were having our ISO Audit at work and the Auditor was telling me he lives in England and go's home for the weekends, so.....I bring up the Horlicks Tablets and ask him if he know's about them, and he responds that .....Yes....he knows about them........So.....I ask him if he would bring a couple of boxes back the following week, and he had a funny look on his face and asked why I wanted so much......and I said I ate them like Candy......and he said "Why".......and I said "Why Not".....and he responds that in England they eat them to stay "Regular"..........(Exlax)...........Told him to forget about them and haven't touched them since.....LOL

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.
