OT: Tide!

Dear Tide:

I am writing to say what an excellent product you have.
I've used it all of my married life, as my Mom always
told me it was the best. Now that I am in my forties,
I find it even better! In fact, about a month ago, I
spilled some red wine on my new white blouse. My inconsiderate
and uncaring husband started to belittle me about how clumsy
I was, and generally started becoming a pain in the neck.

One thing led to another and somehow I ended up with
his blood on my new white blouse! I grabbed my bottle
of Tide with bleach alternative, to my surprise and
satisfaction, all of the stains came out! In fact, the
stains came out so well the detectives who came by yesterday
told me that the DNA tests on my blouse were negative and
then my attorney called and said that I was no longer
considered a suspect in the disappearance of my husband.

What a relief!

Going through menopause is bad enough without being a
murder suspect!

I thank you, once again, for having a great product.

Well, gotta go, have to write to the Hefty bag people.

Cheers!

Turns out that the oxygen bleach products totally eradicate any
gunshot residue that might, for some reason, be on your hands or
clothes.

Thanks, John. That's right up there, with the likes of:

Great tips to spruce up your jail cell, after you fail the gunpowder
residue test. You should send them to the style editor of "Prisoner"
magazine. [1]

[1] Is there a "Prisoner" magazine? There's certainly a large enough
reader base, a captive audience even. Lots of lawyers and gun dealers
would advertise.

If no cornstarch, some white toothpaste works very well if the holes
are not too large. (Best with thumbtack sized holes).
