Lime & Honey
Battery terminals a mess, I was waylay-ed. My Mexican buddy scrubbed them clean with a sliced lime, and told me to put honey on them when I got home.
I did. That was six months ago and today, they are factory fresh.
American by birth, Mexican by choice.
Signature addendum: Danish physicist — Niels Bohr — who said, “The opposite of one profound truth may very well be another profound truth.

Lime.....the sea sickness pill
Getting sea sick? Car sick?
I learned down the Tulume that if you crack open a lime, and smell it for a minute or two.....you will not get furthered ill. Fact is...you'll feel
great withing a few minutes. Always carry a lime when boating or car traveling.
It works!
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I have also heard that if you place a lime wedge on the rim of a cold Tecate, it will taste really good.
Probably just an old wive's tale.

Only works if you add some salt.

Putting a lime wedge on the rim of a cold Tecate is a waste of a good lime.
