I like to label my stock bottles of this material as: 'DHMO, concentrated'.

Can using DHMO improve my marriage?

This is a popular myth, but one which is also actually supported by a number of scientific facts. Dihydrogen Monoxide plays an instrumental role in the centers of the brain associated with feelings of emotional attachment and love. Married couples have found that regular ingestion of DHMO can improve their marriage-related activities, while couples that never ingest DHMO often find that their marriage suffers as well.

Employees should do one thing: walk over there and you step on the friggin� snake." - Jean-Pierre Garnier, CEO of Glaxosmithkline, June 2006

It sounds like it was a foolish idea holding a contest like that. What I think is even more strange is that the hosts were "shocked" that she died. To me, it sounds like a lot of people are ignorant about the dangers.

Did they even think about the possible consequences before deciding to host that contest?
