[ilovepaydays]

Grease.....I guess. Both movies made me want to claw my eyes out. I'm still that Frank Carroll tried to let Evan Lysacek have that Grease program for an Olympic season. When a Carmen program is an upgrade, that should tell you how bad of an idea it was.

---------------------

Mangoes, pineapple, and bananas!

Bonus points for mangoes. BTW, the incorrect answers were cantaloupe and honeydew. If you have to put SALT on FRUIT in order to give it any flavor, that means that the fruit sucks.
