Has anyone seen the new "Scarlet Letter" commercial for Miracle Whip?
And while we're at it, I think we should all lick our floss while
sucking on a big blob of mayonnaise!

I believe people who lick their floss are also machine stitchers. *How
else do you manage to thread a sewing machine, except by wetting the thread?

Would you pay 13,500 GBP for this by
Bruce Fletcher
http://www.hoxatapestrygallery.co.uk/woven-tapestries/progression/prod_71.html
It's big (6 ft by 3 ft) but at 5 GBP per square inch it's a bit pricey!
