I am so glad i am married. I cant even imagine trying to date nowadays.
Bet ya didnt know this.
Before Listerine killed germs in your mouth, it killed bacteria on bathroom floors. Yes, back in the late 1800s, Listerine, which was originally developed as a hospital-grade antiseptic and later used as “a pharmaceutical specialty for dentists,” was commonly sold to consumers as an all-purpose cleaner, used to sanitize floors, clean feet, and douse smelly armpits.
The product didn’t become a household name until the 1920s, when the Lambert Pharmacal Company invented the bad breath “disease” known as halitosis and marketed Listerine as the cure. It was a profitable move for Lambert—according to the book Freakonomics, “n just seven years, the company’s revenues rose from $115,000 to more than $8 million.”
Since then, people have been swishing this one-time household cleaner around in their mouths in the hopes it will freshen their breath. And sure, you can keep gargling that floor cleaner.

just think about being 71 years old and looking for a date...
Our tenants stay for years and take reasonably good care of things. We have one that has been with over 40 years.
Merthiolate was the thing for us. We even had our tonsils swabbed with it.
More 71 year old women out there than men brother. The problem is that they aren't in much better shape or any prettier than us guys.just think about being 71 years old and looking for a date...
Mean old bastards better hang onto what you got. 
I was thinking the same thing!Bastards
