The Sunshine Empire

Now I am not usually as good as my friend BR in finding the really obscure stories on the net.  The far end of the ripple if you will.  During a discussion of what kind of food could be both crunchy and juicy (apples) he ended up finding a fantastic recipe for bacon wrapped deep fried hot dogs that I intend to prepare for Independence Day. But as I read, just in time for the 4th Of July is a story about how watermelon is the new Viagra.  Now is this like finding a story in late November about how turkey reduces your cancer risk or in February that those nasty chalk hearts are a source of fiber?  At first I thought they were stating that the Viagra people were introducing a watermelon flavor.  Just in time for the summer season.  This weekend there should be a wealth of septuagenarians spitting out seeds with hungry looks in their eyes.  Happy Fourth.
