OY Vey........you want I should transmorgrify the water to Cola


Mmmmmm. Coca-Coli!!


The saying is "We will all eat a peck of dirt before we die....."

From Wiki:

A peck is an Imperial and U.S. customary unit of dry volume, equivalent in each of these systems to 8 dry quarts, or 16 dry pints. Two pecks make a kenning (obsolete), and four pecks make a bushel.

The peck occurs in such phrases as "eat a peck of dirt before you die" or "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers". Apples are often sold in peck or half-peck bags or baskets in the United States, but otherwise the peck is rarely used.


Conversions
1 Imperial peck = 9.09218 litres
1 U.S. peck = 8.80977 litres

In other words, we will all "eat 9.09218 litres of dirt before we die".

I'm definitely going to ask my wife to stop buying that organic veg, you should see the state of it!
