Maybe the natural juices can ferment better when the outer areas are dry. There is something about the chemistry of the fruit that nature can take better course with it's natural water.

You are right Therb, this is why alot of businesses are hiring college kids and laying off those without college degrees. My company is pushing those without college degrees to go back to school, basically we are being given an ultimatum in a roundabout way...go back to school or no raise. The problem is, college kids are coming out of college as dumb as they went in. They are using college as a playground rather than learning, no wonder jobs are getting outsourced to India. Eventually American's will have to go there or Singapore to get a job.

Daily Horoscope for December 29

Scorpio

Your thoughts turn to the past today, putting you in a nostalgic mood. You're awash with sentimental tears as you dwell on days gone by or gaze at photos of people you'll never see again. However, try not to let this mood of reminiscence turn into a tendency to feel sorry for yourself and therefore to demand special treatment from others.
