just what the doctor ordered

Ah.  It's August in San Francisco, so when I went out to Matt's "Rx: Prescription for Summer Fun" backyard social on Saturday in a short-sleeved linen shirt, I should have instead worn a parka like the sensible SFers.  Thank God for sixteen years of being conditioned to dress in layers.  At one point, I swear I saw snow, but that could have just been other people seriously playing along with the Rx theme.

I just brought a half dozen pill bottles filled with Tic Tacs and offered dolls to those in need.  The best scenario we came up with was that "four out of five pills are Tic Tacs.  You take your chances."  Which is really up to personal opinion as to what's a win or a lose there.  Other folks preferred a ratio of one out of five were mints, and the power of suggestion is really something to see.

And custom labels really make or break accessory-based comedy.
