garlic cloves next time, but we hardly ever have any of those on hand..

So, my funny story: We were about to go diving and I thought I might be coming down with some sort of cold, or something, which would completely kill any chance of diving because you can't equalize your ears to go down.. So, I'm talking with a friend to tells me to chew on a piece of raw garlic and the garlic would help kill the bacterial infection.. Nice!

So, I run to the store and get me a bag full of raw garlic cloves, because heck, one isn't gonna do the trick, right..? I wash one off and take a huge bite out of it like an apple.. and start chewing it.. and getting more and more uncomfortable by the second.. ok, now my mouth is literally on fire.. gagging and doing my best to spit out all the garlic, but I had chewed it pretty good and its stuck in my teeth and stuff.. tears are flowing out of my eyes, I'm coughing, turning beet red.. finally get all the garlic out and after drinking 62 gallons of water and brushing my teeth about 30 times, am able to resume living.. although my mouth is BEET RED from the trauma of being burned by the garlic..

But, I did go diving the entire trip lol
