from a friend:

In hopes of saving someone else's pet.

a friend had to hand Duke over to God today due to a paper towel I cleaned a window with. The vet staff had no idea until the research was done. There is a chemical in the blue windex that is the same in antifreeze. 3 drops will kill your dog. We tried fluids and meds for over 24 hours. He was not responding. Only getting worse. Please dispose of any paper towels you use windex with in a secure place where the babies can't get to it. He would have been 5 May 13th

5. I seem to recall that anti-freeze was used to murder someone and was

put into the guy's glass in place of Gatorade. Supposedly Gatorade has the same color and taste as anti-freeze. After the guy was killed they investigated what happened and it turned out to be planned murder by his wife. This was on Forensic Files a while ago.

7. Yes, antifreeze actually tastes sweet

I wouldn't say it tastes like Gatorade, since doesn't have salt, but you could certainly mix it with the lemon-lime Gatorade and it wouldn't change the color.

I just use vinegar to clean windows and mirrors.

8. I just discovered that vinegar gets rid of rust

stains in a kitchen sink, even CLR couldn't do that. My plumber gave me that tip in Jan.
