Dear Mongo: I went fishing yesterday, caught a catfish, and let it go. This morning I found a $20 bill in my sock drawer. Yay! Mongo: Cool !
Dear Mongo: My kids and I like to dig for clams at low tide. We draw little smiley faces on their shells with a Sharpie, and then we put them back in the sand alive. Is something like that okay? Mongo: Yes.
Dear Mongo: I noticed that those Odwalla Berries GoMega bars contain both cranberries and blueberries and flax. If I eat one of those for breakfast, will that satisfy the breakfast requirement, the blueberry requirement, the cranberry requirement, and the flax requirement all at the same time ? Mongo: Yes.
