A Dose of Humor
I just came back from the store stocking up for the hurricane:
- 50 gallons of water
- 17 cases of beer
- 16 bottles of vodka
- 18 steaks on ice
- 10 pounds of pot
- 100 cans of tuna
- 150 jars of peanut butter
- 5 boxes of toothpicks
- 1000 batteries
- 100 flashlights
- 300 rolls of toilet paper
They said to stock up for 72 hours, so I’m going back for 10 boxes of tums!
"Poop Dilute" Invention
Perry Campanella invented 'Poop Dilute' after an incident where Facebook deleted his views from a song/poem video, leading him to angrily say 'Dog-Shit.' The invention is made of sawdust, stone granules, Arm & Hammer for abrasiveness, Aerosil, water, yellow dye, and enzymes. It prevents stepping into it!
