  10. Ahh teenagers,always late.TYWKIWDBI is not lauded for its longevity, but the ongoing superb quality of the content. Information and insights to help us all win bar bets. Oh, I shouldn't say that, he'll want a cut.
    Thank you Sir, you done good, the only thing lacking is sadly a tip jar

    1. It's sad that some gift sites still list ivory as "traditional", even with an asterisk and a footnoted disclaimer/suggestion re off-white etc. The word ivory should be deleted altogether.
