I will have to try one! I'll know if they are the same!

I suppose Mars wasn't selling well enough so they put the Snickers brand name on the product to boost sales. Not that I've ever seen any ads for them either way...

Actually Seanette, we prefer UPS in this household! DH was a loader, then
supervisor, then air-supervisor for UPS while we were in college. The payout for his retirement (when he left UPS) gave us enough $$ to make a downpayment on our first townhouse. SGC "Seanette Blaylock" wrote in message ... "SGC" had some very interesting things to say about Trip to Mars: According to Space Mountain at Walt Disney World, I think that FedEx can send anything anywhere ha ha ha ha Whether it arrives at destination in good condition is another question. ;-) [Just kidding, since I work for UPS tech support :-)] -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent support staff notwithstanding. :-)" - the Dennis formerly known as (evil), MCFL |

I love the Snickers Almonds...they taste just like the old Mars bars.

Debbie, we LOVE Walt Disney World. We rode Mission Space twice on our
November trip. Neither of us felt at all ill after the 'trip'. Actually, we're having trouble understanding all the hoopla -- for our enjoyment, we'd rank Space Mountain and Tower of Terror higher! (Also, must keep in mind that last year we had annual passes to WDW and to Cedar Point -- Cedar Point for the roller coasters and rides, WDW because we really like vacationing there.) There's a Disney Parks newsgroup (rec.arts.disney.parks) that I read too. The general recommendations are... Dramamine those 'sea-band' wrist things (for motion sickness) keep eyes forward and head still. It was a fun ride, but it doesn't make the top 3 for thrills in our experience. SGC "debbie frost" wrote in message ... Have you tried Disney's Mission Space? It's supposed to feel like the real thing. We'll be there in May, but I'm not sure I will go on it--don't want to be sick the rest of the day. I've read different accounts from people, you won't get sick, you'll get sick, it's intense, etc. I trust Dramamine for my airline flight, but I don't know about this.... Debbie |

I would have to take all of my Martina Weber's and setup automatic ordering
for all of the new designs she came out with while I was gone :-) Plus lots of Lizzie Kate as they are quick stitches in between the big projects Kristy "Karen C - California" wrote in message ... BushBaby is now talking about sending humans to Mars. (Hmmmm, NASA headquarters is in Texas, he's from Texas...) Depending on the speed they're able to achieve, the trip could take 1-3 years each way. How many of you would volunteer as astronauts if it meant 6 years of uninterrupted stitching time? And what projects would you take with you to fill 6 years of stitching time? I'd take my bag full of MLIs. (Remembering that I can't just send out for more floss, I'd better make a quick S.E.X.cursion before I leave. At astronaut salary, I can afford extras.) -- Finished 12/14/03 -- Mermaid (Dimensions) WIP: Angel of Autumn, Calif Sampler, Holiday Snowglobe, Guide the Hands (2d one) Paralegal - Writer - Editor - Researcher http://hometown.aol.com/kmc528/KMC.html |
