when Guido loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest, and drops dead
at the table.
Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other five continue playing,
but standing up.
At the end of the game, Giovanni looks around and asks, "So, who's gonna'
tell his wife?"
They cut the cards. Pasquale picks the low card and has to carry the news.

Can Always Discreet be used for my period as well, or should I use a
menstrual product for my period?
The entire line of Always Discreet is specifically designed to handle urine,
a thinner, less viscous fluid than menstrual fluid. While we understand
that some women have used Always Discreet for their menstrual needs, and it
is perfectly safe to do so, we recommend using a menstrual product for your
period as it is designed specifically to handle the thicker, more viscous
fluid. |

of the Book of Genesis in the Bible.[1] So-called "sodomy laws" in many
