Happy birthday, from Australia =) You stayed up late to do this podcast! Thank you, and I hope we get to hear these more regularly, if shorter so they're not so consuming on your time!

Usually only 25% of stuff I do on the computer works, so I was so excited that I got to hear this with no trouble at all.

I amazed that you took my question so seriously and spent so much time on it.

I should confess that the question was not one that I originally thought up. When I was a very little 4 yr old I belonged to a dance troupe called, "The Sunshine Kids." My parents only had me in that troupe for about a month. I actually never asked my mom why they ruined my chances at fame, success and stardom, but I am guessing that they decided it was silly and cost too much. Anyway, one of the songs we sang and hopped (danced) to was, "The Chewing Gum Song." I still remember most of the words and the fact that the song never answered it's own question. This has bugged me for years. Does gum lose it's flavor on the bedpost over night? I will say that it does if it is stuck in your hair, but that is another story... :-D

Another song from those same days was, "The Popcorn Song," but I don't remember it asking a question. That song was a blast to dance to. Picture kids hopping around like pop-corn popping. So much talent!

I chew Orbit Gum and Trident, but I keep my mouth closed and the bubble-blowing and smacking to a minimum. I, also, try not to talk or laugh much when I am chewing as I have been known to have gum drop out of my mouth and onto the car floor. Gross! (No, I did not put it back in my mouth for you people who just thought that!)

I enjoyed listening to your podcast. You guys sound really smart, but your husband's voice is a little too scary-sounding. He probably wouldn't be very successful in politics in this day. My husband has a deep scary voice that instills terror in all who hear it, so I can relate. ;-)

Tammy, I really enjoyed this. You guys take care!

Oh, one more thing. I don't live in VT.

I listened to this last night (when I should have been cleaning since my DH was arriving home from training today) and loved it. Eventually I looked at the time and 30 minutes had passed and I was suprised! I guess I was all engrossed in the conversation...LOL.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with the rest of us!
Love,
Dawn

I live in the last free state in New England. j/k ;-)

I live in the MOST free state in New England: NH, but I did grow up in VT.

I don't think my husband's voice is that scary, either, but my sister's kids think he sounds like Darth Vader. I got him a Darth Vader mask to compliment his voice. I told him to wear it when our neices and nephew come over. It will keep them in line. ;-)
