Oh yeah, lots of them, especially at tournament time. I don't eat the cereal though, nasty stuff with the marshmallows. My kids eat it.

CW, did you like frankenberry or count chocula when you were a kid?

Boo Berry was my favorite. That subtle taste of artificial blueberry flavor, enhanced by the 14g/serving of sugar. The way that the blue #1 can pass through your digestive track to remind you how wonderful your breakfast/dinner was.

Mmmmmm . . . . Boo Berry.

i liked the monster cereals. i didn't eat them too often but i enjoyed the commercials and the boxes in the cereal aisles-- they always made sure (and in some supermarkets case, they still do this) to put them out around halloween time (which is my favorite time of year).

I do so love the cereal "Lucky Charms". As for other types of lucky charms, it's not something that belongs to me, but my significant. Multi, where are you? LOL

Just a bunch of 4 leaf clovers. I find 'em all the time whilst walking my dogs, then put them between some waxed paper and press them in the dictionary. A little bird told me to do it that way.

No, I'm not Irish! Don't need them. But, I might have Green beer later today. Beer is beer, really doesn't matter what color it is.

Are there any unlucky charms?

Sorry, Hitme. You made me laugh! I can't drink for medical reasons.. My earlier post was an incidence of penis humor.

I just went to this article http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2010/mar... by Kevin McDonough (nice Irish name, btw) to see what they thought of "Ugly Americans" and, while there, scrolled down to his next review (of "Destination Truth") and read these shocking, disturbing comments about Lucky Charms (Misplacedcheesehead and Mel, close your eyes--you don't want to read this):

"Leprechaun mania reached its high tide and low road when the Kelly-green creatures were emblazoned on boxes of Lucky Charms, a repulsive breakfast cereal crammed with sugar and marshmallows and aimed at parents who would feed their children literally anything to keep them amused at the breakfast table."

Man, that's harsh. Bet he doesn't scrub with Irish Spring soap, either. Might have to take my shillelagh upside his head. (Everybody knows you can just feed the repulsive dried-up marshmallows to your little brother and keep the cereal to yourself. Every problem has a solution.)
