idiotic
notions, like coca cola birth control...but 'all messed up down there',
but when the lady on carnivale used moxie, I
took to be an infection of some sort, or just menstruation. Whatever.

reminds me of one of the best laughs I've
gotten out of my regulatory do***entation, though... a letter from one
