Good little bit of information, so candy for us whiners huh? I love them very much. They are good for breath mints. It doesn't bother us old soldiers what other countries call us, we lead the world in most things.

Sankey, This is too funny. Great job and perfect picture to go with it. I personally rely on chocolate, it seems to work best. Really enjoyed this one, Judy

My hubby is a complainer. I got him a tee shirt that says, "President of the Groan and Moan Society." Fun jokes help us to not take life too seriously. Those candies in the picture look tasty.

It's a blast! Real comical. I see you got a sense of humor. Laughter is good medicine, releases stress. Maybe I need some? I don't whine very often. I know how to suck it up. Lots of humor. Loved it! Count your doubloon. wackydo

    Nope, but I wrote one heck of an Aussie poem. Got a Dingo as a picture. I follow Laurie Kiem, he's a good poet.

This is clever! I'd never heard of whinging before. People do need to suppress whinges. You have a whole host of complaints that might call for a whinge tablet. We in the U.S. would probably have even more about health care, prices of tickets to football games, auto recalls, etc. Your choices of candies to cure whinging are pretty good. I like the peanut butter flavored M%Ms best. I don't like jelly beans that much. I think you could just call this non-fiction. It really doesn't work like a script. judi

    You're welcome, Sankey. This was a great article. Put it would need to have characters and dialogue to make it a script. judi

Hahahaha! A whiner, YOU? I'd never have guessed it. But I would whine or Whinge, whichever would get me the most candy!

You can't tell me you Whinge over your lovely wife, though!

Cute script, Geoff.

I though this very funny Geoff, the lollies! "it's good I can say that without explaining". Are a damn good idea! It's true that we can all lay claim to being wingers at one level or another! We sometimes berate others for being "whingers" but find ourselves whinging about something, while 1Thessalonians says"in all things give thanks" we're flying in the face of scripture, if we " whinge"! Well done, Geoff, well said, blessings, Roy.

You have lost me with this post. I guess people received candies to improve their moods. I didn't see any errors. I can't see you as a whiner.

    YTep that was the idea. Notice how Governments wait till someone gets run over or something similar before traffic lights are installed at a bad intersection.
