This or That: Answer One/Ask One
air conditioning...you're more likely to survive the absence of that than the absence of heat.live without: chocolate or wine?
That was just plain mean, Eric. Really, chocolate or wine, I mean…It's an odd choice, Preston, but I'll go for leather sandals (being a tropics boy an' all)

Dear Pouting Roger and (apparently) teasing Preston,Perhaps someone would let the rest of us in on the joke/history/whatever? On most choices that are unknown there's at least a reasonable possibility that Google will turn up enough information to make a rational choice, or enough so that you know the only choice is a cyber-coin-toss.
Ain't no way, nohow, I'm going to Google those dates (in unknown years) to figure this out.

First there was that awful pun in 3589 that even I would have eschewed, and then you're lusting after young grooms named Tom? Though I have to admit some confusion here. Is young Tom: (a) just married, or (b) about to be married and you hope to head >ahem< him off, or (c) he works with horses?
