Hey all when buying condom's at a gass station always check the experation date on the condom box. Reason they don't always lokk at the experation date.
After unfurling the condom to it's proper location, check the "stripe" at the very bottom. It changes color (green, yellow, red) with age. Don't trust any yellow or red stripe (not the beer).
I'm starting to check the expiration date on several food items and non food items. It would be nice if every manufacturer would make the date clear and readable rather than use a code you have to figure out if you can or squint your eyes to be able to read anything.
I suggest the expiration date be added to the nutrition label in a clear readable format for all food items with the possible exception of fresh fruits and vegetables since that is something you tend to have to look and check out yourself. I would also include non food items such as contact lens solution and anything else that has a shelf life. If something such as contact lens solution doesn't have a nutrition label, then maybe a readable box on the side of the container indicating the expiration date would be nice. I suggest a format such as
EXPIRATION DATE: SEPT 12, 2012
with big enough letters so that you don't have to squint your eyes and have it printed on the label instead of the creases on the side or bottom or top of a container in almost unreadable print or a code.
Like most of us, Clubber, I am a Heinz. I've got Irish and Cherokee and Chippewa Indian in my heritage from my dad's side. My mom comes from German, Russian and Polish ancestors. I favor whichever heritage suits my fancy as needed. My full head of hair comes from my mom's genes. I am glad I have hair. My dad's side loses hair quickly.:)

Stay away from the ones at the dollar store, too.

Perhaps they should end in 420 not 69
@jackslash - Where do you find that? I must be looking in the wrong places.
Is this a confession on your part? Might be better than my being mick/kraut/limey.

Like my Grandfather said, "Hair either turns gray or turns loose." I, too, opt for the gray. :)
