a crack about how much digging they had to do to make the
Grand Canyon.

Someone "built" the Grand Canyon? All these years I thought it was a
natural phenomenon. Wow! :-)

Boyhowdy.. I sure gave it a shot at this years Superbowl party. We went
through my homemade Limoncello and someone ran home to get their

That's simply Not True. I visited there and saw the commemorative

of it. But they're all too small.
