Sweet celery flavour? Interesting...but not necessarily in a good way ;-)!

I'm definitely going back one day (I just can't stop thinking of Al's!) but
I wouldn't want to deprive you of a can of Cel-Ray! You might feel bad
about wasting a can if I don't like it, and then I'll feel bad! Once I gave
a friend a can of my precious root beer to try (I was in Japan at the time,
and root beer was very difficult to find in my area and was a little
expensive). She took one sip, decided she didn't like it, and poured it
down the sink! I was crushed! And I wanted to lick the sink so I could
savour a few of those precious drops of liquid gold (brown, I mean)...

Hey! I'm a *good* driver! Very unlike other Manitobans--I even let people
into my lane (when they signal, of course. Otherwise tfb for them)! Except
I get lost a lot, and am afraid of those big freeways and highways (we have
little streets here :-)).
