The first person to respond will then announce a "Topic" for discussion*. It can be as unclear, ambiguous and vague as you'd like it. Being of interest to the masses is a plus!


Remember the "Topic" you choose can be in any form. One or several words or phrase form. Please highlight your choice of topic in some manner.

* No politics or other ugly topics please.

Thanks to all for your contributions, large or small!

Thanks Aks! "Jello" it is! Don't recall it being used.


I think it's made from a substance found in cows knees. That could be baloney though. I've never been a fan of it.

Yes, It's a material that comes from animal bones.

Wikipedia ---> Jell-O - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Gelatin, a protein produced from collagen extracted from the boiled bones, connective tissues, and other animal products, has been a component of food, particularly desserts, since the 1400s."

Just this evening, as I was listening to a Jeff Foxworthy comedy bit while driving, I laughed my off when he described Jell-O. He said it's the only known substance that starts as a liquid and after you put it in the fridge it solidifies but does not return to a liquid when you take it out of the fridge. (Well, he stated it much better than I did, but it was funny!) He said that once it becomes Jell-O, it's Jell-O forever.

My grandmother used to make a jello salad mold for every holiday dinner that looked something like this... don't remember what it tasted like or if I ever even tasted it!

Jell-O Shots

Face it. By your age you should know better than to subject yourself to the extreme embarrassment (and brain cell loss) of getting so drunk that you fall down. Don’t imitate today’s twentysomethings; they’ll probably grow out of it.
