Or, it could be something particular in your genetics, as everyone has peculiarities regarding taste and smell and these are genetically based.<BR/><BR/>I like various alcoholic things, I love coffee, I like bellamyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243108422389386105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-57867066305596475152008-09-07T22:58:00.000-04:002008-09-07T22:58:00.000-04:00Bee -I prefer Les Horribles Cernettes myself to th...Bee -<BR/><BR/>I prefer Les Horribles Cernettes myself to the hip-hop stuff.

Don't know whether that's genetic. If you want to have a DNA sample I could try spitting on the keyboard?
