I was able to sell the car in less than 24 hours after putting it on the market. The used car market is booming in Hawaii.

LISTERINE LIARS

I'm getting hooked to the blog scene, so I thought I share the following:

A few months back, I noticed a lot of marketing from the Listerine folks claiming that they have studies proving using Listerine mouthwash was a effective as flossing. Whoa, what a claim. How good of a deal is that, never having to floss again. Just 30 seconds of the new orange flavored mouthwash and I'm good-to-go. I wondered how long it would take for Listerine to get sued.
My last trip to the grocery store, I noticed the "just as effective" claim was no longer on the bottle. My curiosity led me to do a YAHOO SEARCH, and sure enough, they were sued by Johnson & Johnson claiming they were falsely telling people not to floss. A judge ruled in favor of the dental floss group and Listerine was to remove the claim from its product line.
