Two things.

1. I've been using a new toothpaste and it's awesome! It is Crest Natural Expressions Mint + Green Tea Extract.

2. Finished 24 Season 4. We're on record pace. Season 5 is on its way. There is no stopping the 24 train. After catching up to the current season I plan to start again at Season 1 Disc 1 and keep a running tally of how many times the phrases "Dammit!" and "I understand" are uttered. What is it with "I understand"? I guess when you reach a certain level of government and power "yeah", "sure", "right", and "got it" just don't cut it. You don't want to get your words minced when you are the defenders of the nation's security.

i'm not convinced those natural toothpastes really do the job. in fact, now if i use a toothpaste that does not inlcude a mouth wash component (ie crest w/ scope, my standard) my mouth just does not feel clean/fresh/minty enough. but i know you are a sucker for those products linds. as for 24, i think that show should really give you some sort of present for all the free advertising you've given it.

When Jamie and I turn 24 we should play that drinking game when you take a shot everytime Jack says "dammit!" That would be fun. For the first couple of times.

Now that I think about it, we should do shots of juice. Or soda.

You make a good point. The natural doesn't really leave you with that cooling, minty feeling. However, it tastes and smells great.

Alex, would you like to weigh in on this discussion? Any health or hygenic tips or suggestions?

As for 24, the series itself is the best present and reward. I may start an "I heart Tony Almeida" fan club.

Erin, we commented at nearly the same time! Weird.

Okay, I'll put that on my calendar for October 12, 2012.

Erin, by then you will have been of age for 3 years and i am sure you'll both have built up a pretty serious tolerance. so slamming dammits should be no problem for you. maybe we could add to the game by saying that every time you want to answer someone wtih an affirmative during the night you have to say "i understand". any time someone forgets and just says yeah or uh huh, they have to take a shot.
