That was bad editing on my part in shortening my post. My apologies.
It was your assertion that dry ginger ale was invented during Prohibition that I was contradicting. The recipe that made Canada Dry ginger ale popular dates from 1907, not Prohibition.
Here’s some real trivia about Canada Dry. A granddaughter of the brother of the founder of Canada Dry likes double anchovies on her pizza. Seriously.
I love anchovies. I don’t see what’s so odd about that.
Is your IRL name Suzie?
Ah - that explains it; thank you. I was goin’ nuts - I was afraid they might replace the good dry stuff with the sweet Canada Dry stuff…
Suzie Canada Dry. It has a nice ring to it.
Warning: from now on when you see a FedEx truck driving down the road, all you’ll see is a big freakin arrow. Try not to see it. I dare you. You’ll wish this door was never opened to you. But its too late now.
Paging mat_mcl.
Are you any relation to Canada Dry?
…not to mention that we didn’t go in for that damnfoolishness, anyway.
Is that aimed at me? Because I’m a guy and my parents weren’t that cruel.
Yes, it was. I was wondering if by off chance you were her – in the last 48 years, she was the only person I knew who insisted on double anchovies on her 'za.
Not recent, but it took me a good ten years to realize that Datsun and Nissan were the same car company. Around the time they dropped the Datsun name, there were quite a few Japanese companies starting to make inroads in the U.S. market and I guess I just assumed that Nissan was one of them. I didn’t make the connection until about 1993 when I bought an old Datsun pickup and noticed “Nissan Motor Company” stamped on the engine.
I was on the fence about anchovies, not having enountered them until in about my 30’s, when Jim referred to them as “salty eyebrows.” Okay, I’m out. No anchovies for me, ever. Bleah.
And now I’m going to go drink some Canada Dry. 
I love anchovies, but I never heard of double anchovies on pizza. That’s a lot of salt.
You won’t get him in here if he does a vanity search on that. It’s matt_mcl. I suppose you could find out on your own, if you know who his dad was.
Ah crap, I can’t spell at all! Thanks for the correction.
Yes, I know who his dad was, but I don’t know if they are part of the Canada Dry or GM Canada line.
And salt makes me cough.
I’ll probably be ridiculed for not knowing this- but I had absolutely no idea until last night that someone tried to steal Abraham Lincoln’s body and hold it for ransom.
Mr. 1341: Want to watch a program about the guys who tried to steal Lincoln’s body?
Katie1341: Sure, Wow, when did that happen?
Mr. 1341: You’re kidding, right?
Katie1341: Um, no.
Mr. 1341: About 130 years or so ago.
Yikes. It was a fascinating show, I’m glad we watched it, and I learned a lot of stuff that I didn’t know. I have no idea how that little tidbit slipped by me for 48 years.
I ordered double anchovies once (as well as a single order of all toppings the store had to offer) on a pizza when I entered a pizza challenge. I was gonna show them just how bad I was.
Does anybody know where I can get Canada Dry in Ireland? I used to see it in shops when Iwas a kid, now Ican’t get it anywhere.
I just learned that a Polar Bear’s skin is black. Makes sense but I never thought about it.
