Just wondering what units of measure are used for the cans of whoopass. The cans I have are just in two sizes; one can is ( I assume) regular whoopass, because ther are no other markings on the can, the other can is a bit larger and says "Big ol Whoopass".

BH, I would like to take credit for being the author the original post however, it was an E mail message to me from a colleauge. So, as much as I would like to master the art of double entendre and puns, I doubt I can accommodate your request. Sorry!
