A Novel Use For a Plumber's Snake

Pa hankered cheeses of every kind. Alas, it placed him in a painful bind! "For fast relief", said his wife, "Plumber's snakes should ease yer strife!" "No thanks! I'll use Ex-Lax for my behind!" Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired

G'day Bob ... give a large plate of Jerusalem artichokes a try with butter, salt and pepper - you might need cheese again in a day or two - Lindsay
