There is a candy store here in NYC called Economy Candy. (google them if you want) They still sell candy cigaretts, and lot’s of ‘classic’ candy. Chick-o-sticks! I even got a pack of Beamens gum in case I’m ever around Chuck Yeager. ---

[QUOTE=Zebra] Thanks **Delores** , May you live to be a thousand years old. Now what the heck kind of candy is a **horehound**? [/QUOTE] You’re welcome! I got the #REF problem too, on another Feud. It has to do with cutting and pasting double spaced answers, I think. It screws up the formatting. And I hope y’all noticed I didn’t penalize anybody, even though half of you didn’t follow the rules of answer formatting! 1. answer 2. answer It makes it soooo much easier to put into the excel program. Then all you have to do is make all the “alike” answers the same. Such as “red” "red " “red.” “reds”. So who’s up for the next one? 😃 ---
