words, not just because it is a catchy tune. saying what's in this drink implies no, i don't agree with this, that he either added alcohol or she's not used to, it is a drug. i parsed those words. instead, it is her saying this is a potent drink, not like uh-oh, did you put something in here, are you now about to take advantage of me as a result? what do you at home think. coming up, the final rumesults the survey question. right now, go to smerconish.com and tell me. should radio stations stop playing the holiday classic "baby it's cold outside?" but some give their clients cookie cutter portfolios.
