OK, I'll bite. What is a White Maggot, in your world? I know what it
is in mine, and I would gag.

From your comment, I'm left to think it's the same thing - a football
umpire.

LOL, nope, I was thinking of those little worm-like things that eat dead
flesh. Wait a minute, wasn't that the IRS? Or maybe you're right. All
three of them have professional courtesy agreements with sharks, anyway,
so it could be any of them.

Doesn't anyone but me balk at everything having to smell edible? Even
perfumes, nowadays, seem to come in fruit scents! Although I guess
those are preferable to some of the "designer" scents which they insist
upon "demonstrating" in department stores. (My reaction to most of
those is "Who'd want to smell like THAT????")

giggle Orange, in this case, is a colour, not a flavour.

Orange is a cell phone service provider, network, system, or whatever you
call it. It's all over Asia, big here in Thailand too. It's fairly new,
they came out with it 2 years ago about. It took me forever to figure out
what all the advertisements were about too because that's all they ever put:
ORANGE.

It has been around in the UK for a lot longer than that.

It does seem that every cleaning product these days trumpets "orange",
doesn't it? And before that "lemon" was popular. I think we may all be
in trouble if they start using chocolate in the ingredients g

There's a chemical called d-limonene that goes into the "orange"
products. It actually is that oily substance you can squeeze from an
orange peel and it is a good degreaser. It smells nice, too.

I've been watching the Australian Grand Prix F1 race, and am curious
about some advertising I see at the course. They're large signs,
usually on a plain orange background, that display the word "Orange".
If not on an orange background, the text is orange.

I've seen these signs at other sporting events on TV, although I don't
recall seeing them at an event originating in North America.

What product are these "Orange" signs advertising?
