Just about any food product you find these days has a warning, "Refrigerate After Opening", even things like Senor Vulcanisto's New Flamin' A**hole Salsa, and other items I've never had go bad. But my milk carton doesn't say a damn thing about refrigeration. I guess there may still be hope for common sense, until some ambulance-chaser wins a multi-million-dollar judgement against some dairy and a grocery chain. |

Hmmmmm. Mebbe we should have "This end toward target" labels at the muzzle. You know, to protect against liability in case one of the candidates for Darwinian de-selection breaks in and steals a gun. |
| the one that gets me fired up is when ya get a bottle of weed killer or somthyng similar, ya start readin the label & under "Directions for use:" "it is a violation of federal law........." haysuess-kay-rist !! that ain't no fuckin directions that is a fuckin threat !!!!!!!!!!!! |
