Both my wife and boss have had a lingering "bug" for the last two weeks. Not really the flu and nothing severe -- just difficult to shake.

Turns out they've both been tearing into Peter Pan Peanut Butter almost everyday for lunch (product code 2111). Might be a coincidence.... might be the plague.... might be a steamy, illicit affair of which I know nothing about:D

But who knows? Just a head's up...

I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Just read this article on the Chicago Tribune's site after reading your post:

    I buy a local peanut butter - Teddy. All natural - just peanuts and salt.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
