The talk of fruitcake reminds me of my Vietnam days and my Grandmother wants to send me a fruitcake for Christmas. My grandfather says the fruitcake needs to be "preserved" since it may take a long time to arrive, so they made it with Brandy and wrapped it in a towel soaked in the stuff and made sure it was mailed in a sturdy tube container. It was mailed in October but did not find me until nearly March. I guess you know how well "preserved" that fruitcake was and how long it lasted. Definitely some happy guys for awhile!
