Heh. All #1s except beer and shampoo. I don’t drink and I don’t have dandruff. 😃

Congrats, **Rebo**! Well-deserved.

Fun feud – thanks for running it, and thanks to **AuntiePam** for a fun theme.

I had 7 out of 10 and came in 33rd. This was a poll of overpowering choices. Reborn edged out the usual suspects, who win most of them. Congrats. Now it is my turn.
