[Groop] Johnny Carson's Cheese Dip

[Azamin]

me too for quite some time... until one day when I went shopping with my
brother at a supermarket, i found cheese dip in bottles.... on the shelf...
then during Euro 2004 last year (european nation football championship) in
Portugal.. there was a picture in the newspaper of supporters (not sure
which country they're from) enjoying cheese dip in the stadium.... during a
match... (holland maybe as i remember something orange.. and orange is the
national color of Holland football team - they spell it as Oranje - does
this another coincidence with Groo??? cheese dip and orange color....)
Opps.. I've found the picture.. it was Switzerland supporters!!!!.... not
Dutch supporters as mentioned above... sorry.. I grooed...

Josh.. could you put this picture on the website if groop cannot recieve
it....
