poll: We have to draw a line in the sand damnit! Choose up!

On edit, vote for each "or" option. I am sorry this poll doesn't work as intended. Vote for the issue that most concerns you.

30. I see... so you put the white shoes away
And bring out the oatmeal?

In that case, a poll option should be "white shoes" during the summer and "oatmeal" the rest of the time:)

34. Nah. I wear white sneakers practically year-round.
And eat oatmeal like clockwork on every Cold morning the Northeast can muster. Come April, though, It's time for lighter breakfast foods...like Honey Bunches of Oats (!), Crispix, Fresh Fruits.

11. Rolling Stones, Coca-Cola, MIracle-Whip, Sir
No opinion of consequence on the rest.

The Beatles are far too cheerful to be tolerated in any large dose.

No drink has ever equaled the 10 oz. green glass Coca-Cola.

Miracle-Whip was a staple growing up; never saw mayonnaise till in my teens....

28. I thought it was reversed. Certainly, I'm from NYC and never used
Miracle Whip in all my years.

It was a Chicago invention during the Depression, so maybe it's more of a socio-economic than a regional thing.

I'm sure somebody talks about the mayo vs. MW issue in a book somewhere. Probably one of those "Did you know?" kind of works.

I want to see Keith Richards as a judge on American Idol and I want him to tell people what he really thinks! That would be cool!

"You're bloody awful! How the hell did you even get on this show? And who did your hair? Whoa, that really makes you a rocker, doesn't it?"

42. Do you know any men? Do you have a preference as to their
undies? Panty hose or stockings and garters? I can assure you that men have a preference in that department, although they never wear 'em.
