Smoothness is measured on the “Edwards Scale”, with a baby’s bottom being 9 and John Edwards’s “area” being the hypothetical maximum 10. The hypothetical 0 point has never actually been attained, although some claim that either Mount Everest or Edward James Olmos’s face would qualify.

John Edwards’ favorite spice girl… Mrs. Dash
John Edwards prefers white rice… the flavor of brown rice is too bold
John Edwards’ secret family recipe for a great cup coffee:
* 1 large mug with luke warm water
* 3 drops brown food coloring
