You passed "teen" at that point, but do you know anything about the
12 gallons that "evaporated" from my '75 Mustang II in the Route 3
Cinema parking lot in 1980?

As for Moxie, it has another WCAP connection in that it was the
favored beverage of the late Ike Cohen (WCAP founder and elder late
brother of Maurice Cohen).  He once put a bottle of Moxie on the
table in the air studio one day during the news and said, "I dare
you."  Let's just say it was better than Paragouric (if you know
what that is, no explanation needed.)  I'd occasion to sneak a
bottle onto Ike's desk when he was out of the office in an
unexpirgated attempt to kiss-up to the boss.
