Thank god. I was going to have to abandon MeCha completely if no one posted a Burma Shave ad.

:-)

Good luck, Meat Bomb! I have heard nothing but wonderful things about traveling in Burma (and that was while I was working for a travel guide company, so there's some actual street cred there), so I'm totally jealous.

Sadly, that was my first thought too. Amazing how that stuff sticks in your head.

What in joke am I missing here re. "I thought you panicked"?

Meatbomb, it's Monty Python's exploding penguin sketch. Your answer appears right around 3:25.

"BURMA!"

...

"Why'd you say 'Burma'?"

"I panicked."

"BURMA" was also lovers code in British ww2 letters

BURMA= Be Undressed (and ready) My Angel
