On a Much Lighter Note...

Some products are designed to make women happy and undoubtedly confound men.

I was taking a shower this afternoon, and I looked up and saw a new friend in the shower caddy. The beautiful wife had brought home something lemony and strange.

It is called Clean & Clear Morning Burst...it is new...and apparently has something called bursting beads inside it's happy green bottle. (pictured below)


At first, I wasn't sure what to do with it. I had to read the bottle. It claimed to be a "refreshing face wash." Well, then I had to try it out of morbid curiosity if nothing else...and I am still unsure what it was. It isn't soap, or shampoo, or even body wash...apparently it is strictly soap for the face...whatever that means. I was tempted to wash another body part with it, but I didn't want anything to fall off from misuse! I was, and remain, unimpressed and confused.

The first problem with this citrus ladened concoction is that it has little balls in it...at the risk of almost certainly offending my dear Mother, I don't like anything having to do with balls on my face in the shower...that is way too "Turkish prison" for me.

Then I looked lower on the label and it said...(picture below)

Did I read that correctly??? Wakes you up???

I'm not a doctor, but if you are standing in the shower washing your face, shouldn't you already be awake? In the litigious society we live in, Clean & Clear is just asking for a lawsuit. I can hear the litigants now..."My wife drowned using your product...she wasn't quite awake yet during her shower...and your product didn't wake her up...That is false advertising!"

To use my Mom's favorite new phrase...I'm Just Sayin'!

For you Sammy junkies, here is your fix...
