It's not like it was previously naturally, uh, frigerated.<br/><br/>Also, it bothers me that the abbreviation for "refrigerator" is "fridge" with a "d" in it. Of course, while I was growing up, our family called it the "rif", which didn't make much sense either. Ken Tue, 03 Nov 2009 08:16:00 +0000 http://www.realkato.com/blog.php?pid=1535
