Cool, no more buying lime for disposing of my daughter's boyfriends who piss me off. For you city guys, I mean LIME, not limes, or lemons.

I found a good woodchipper with the chute under water on the bank of the river worked the best. Turtles and catfish will eat anything, and I liked the hollow pop of the skull hitting the blades.
A cold Mt Dew would have gone down nice back than

My ex wife sipped Mt Dew all day for 10 years. It dissolved her teeth. She needed $18,000 worth of restorative work. It has a PH of something like 5 and is full of sugar, which creates its own acid.

There was a show on Discovery Channel (or similar) about Appalachia and the backwater folk in them hills. Evidently those are the "Mountains" Mountain Dew is named after. Those folks drink so much their teeth rot and there are dentists who have a mobile service and go to the remote areas to do dental work.

Appalachia has no corner on tragic teeth. We see it about 150x per year (I'm not a dentist...it's much worse for them). Children with parents who don't understand (or are too lazy to care about) dental hygene, young adults, middle aged, elderly, disabled, drug addicted, smokers...it never ends. And the vast majority are state medicaid subscribers.

My perosnal "favorite" was a couple with a nicer home than I who brought in their young child on medicaid for dental restoration. When finished, they didn't like how it looked. Off to a cosmetic dentist they went...and paid cash for that. The father told me this himself.

It would have been better to just say, "yeah, there was a mouse in it, sorry about that," and pay the guy!

I heard about CocaCola dissolving a steak in a bowl way back in the '70s.

I have a 'Dew' once a year, maybe twice. Thats plenty for me. On the farm they drink maybe 5 to 8 cans of it a day during planting and harvest.

I once did a junior h.s. project on the effects of colas.
It's more acidic than even stomach acid, and leaches calcium from the bones in order to neutralize it.
