The SNUGGIE Blanket

Whooppie!  My SPAM inbox has been getting filled with something other than member enhancements and cheap drugstore options.  Yes, SPAM has become all warm & fuzzy… nice, soft, comfortable.  Introducing “SNUGGIE”, the blanket with sleeves!

Does the world need blankets with sleeves?  I mean, that just means people can wear them and walk around.  “No shirts, no shoes, no snuggies.”  Or what if somebody answers the door dressed in nothing but a snuggie?  It’s either going to open in the front or the back — like a hospital gown, except more comfortable (er, for the wearer).

Do they have Snuggie’s for two?  After all, I do like to share a blanket with a special someone once in awhile.  How do you put two sets of “arms” into a blanket anyway?

And what if you want to wrap your head in the blanket too.. you know, when you’re REALLY cold, or sick, and have to get totally into the blanket - where only your eyes peer out from a narrow slit (like Jawas in Star Wars).

I guess problems with the design notwithstanding, the Snuggie is getting heavily marketed.  You know it’s all in the marketing, too, because we’ve had snuggies all along - we just called them “Sweatshirts!” They might not have been as long, but they are certainly more versatile.  They don’t drag along the ground picking up cat hair, you won’t trip on them going into the kitchen, and you can still go into a restaurant looking respectable.

Of course, if you want to take a really happy warm picture with all your friends (like below) you’ll need to pony up the dough and invest in a small army of Snuggie blankets for you & the guests.  After all.. no sharing allowed!

Group Snug!

What’s funny about the price of gas drawing near to the cost of expensive perfume? It’s not funny. Kinda depressing really. So in order to make ourselves feel better we joke about it! Hey, I like that kind of therapy. So here’s a collection of gas jokes to *ahem make you feel better!

SOLUTION?

If you’ve ever been to a Costco (yeah I know, strange, obscure out-of-the-way type place) you might have noticed that they sell a few food items there. Some of them are quite good… in fact, I think I’m addicted to hot dogs & almond bars.

As I was standing in line to feed my addiction the other day, it occurred to me that their “Chicken Bake” was a pretty lame name for a food item. I mean, who are the ad wizards who came up with that one, right?

So… to show that individuals in their own right can easily surpass the creative advertising geniuses who designed the “Chicken Bake”… I’ve compiled a mix & match list for you.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Just match one of the delectable meat products on the left, with the cooking action taken on the right… and you will have created a brand-new fast food product ready for mass marketing!

Using this method will get you some terrific sounding treats!
Pork Fry
Shrimp Dip
Lobster Melt

But BEWARE! There are many dangers to avoid… such as the:
The Ostrich Microwave
a Shark Shake
and the dreaded Buffalo Boil

Thank you Costco! As always a great inspiration to me.
