Well, yeah, I got one.

I just figured it was like any of those "new product" giveaway thingys.

Just showered with the thing.  It worked alright, I suppose.

Weird that it was already sorta damp.  I sniffed it right away, but it didn't smell all that weird.

Sudsed up nice...



Otherwise, no big deal. I like getting free stuff.  I put the thing back in the bag, 'cause I figure the company made it to stay wet and all.  



I gotta go.. dangedest thing.. I gotta keep running to the bathroom.. man.  That's not good.



I'll be back later, I guess.  Ow.



Shoot.

Yeah, I got one too. It looked sorta tasty, so of course I licked it. Yuch. Tasted kinda sour, and it left giant blisters on my tongue. I went ahead and gave it to the cat, but she just batted it around the house. I did notice that I have not had any flies or mosquitos in the house since the sponge arrived, so it can't be all that bad. I'd order a few dozen more, but there was no return address on the envelope.

How come I didn't get a blue envelope? thats not fair. Ace probably came here and robbed my mailbox but what he didn't know is that I was going to mail it to him anyway.



Sounds like Scuzzy has a bad case of hoof and mouth disease. That is what you get when you bite your toenails.

I didn't notice the mosquito decline as yet. Really, haven't had many this year anyway.  I'll leave out some meat and see if the flies come back in a minute.



And, no, I didn't rob anybody's mailbox of anything. Criminy, that's a federal offense at least. And I'm not going to test our men in blue, or women in blue, or whichever. Mailmen or Mailwomen. Either one.  



I hope your cat "Alex" is ok, Scuzzy.  Shoot, I guess he should be, since they usually just eat themselves and then cough a lot anyway.  I sorta have a cough now, too, but it's not from that.



About the only time I've had giant tongue blisters is from jalapenos or something like that. Hey, here's one; do you call "bad breath from peppers" halapenotosis?  Or is that when you do bite them, and then you smell like feet?

Or cheese; that'd be about as bad.



Looks like Coach Davie (boy, that's a misnomer) is gonna take over the offense at ND.  I guess that could be a double negative, what with somebody offensive taking over the offensive. I gotta make up some hold it I mean find some more prophetic jingles. I mean jingoistic parables.  I mean quit biting scuzzy's toes. Hold it, hold it; I mean for Scuzzy to quit biting Alex's toes. Or the other way around; depends on which one was the cat, and which one is the one who doesn't poast.  It's so hard to keep people straight, what with all the different rooms this room has been.  Shoot, most of you don't even go by your real names; so like that's gonna help anything.



Man, I'd hate to be a kid growing up in NY and be named "Osama."  Especially if my last name was "Hitler" or something unusual like that... Recess would not be a treat, I gotta figure.



Ace: he thinks too much, and too often, about not enough.

Yet another urban legend that has been circulating since 2000.  After the WTC/Pentegon attacks, it seems to have surfaced again playing on people's fear of biological and/or chemical terrorist acts.  



Here's the real story behind the hoax:

I'm at that awkward stage...somewhere between the young and the restless, and the old and the senseless.   ;)

Anyone see this yet? Well I guess if you get a big blue envelope in the mail you now know what to do. (Send it to Ace)

I wonder if this is covered in his prophecies?



This is very scary and is not a joke.
