    Well I would think it’s just as bad then chocking on a ballpoint pen!

    remember when we tried to open our ‘toothpick museum’? we put our collections together, you with your: abe lincoln, don knotts, & vincent price collection. me with my: charlie chaplin, william frawley, art garfunkel set. would have been so great…. too bad the bank didn’t think so……

    Yeah, well I can imagine that!
    Some people are stupid and forget it’s in their
    mouths, or run ’round like a fools and choke on it.

    Of course it is. And I bet they’re hicks…like my dad who once jumped off his roof with an umbrella because he thought he’d float and who also got in a fight with a lawn chair one drunken night because it, “Looked at him funny.”

    Well we are pretty damn stupid, so I wasn’t surprised.

    I mostly wouldn’t be surprised if that’s how my grandpa’s going to die. He makes cinnamon flavored toothpicks to chew on.
