That is horrible, buthas anyone read this?

This is a true story reported on CNN

If you lick your envelopes...You won't anymore!!!!


A woman was working in a post office in California. One day she
licked the envelopes and postage stamps instead of using a sponge.
That very day the lady cut her tongue on the envelope.

A week later, she noticed an abnormal swelling of her tongue. She
went to the doctor, and they found nothing wrong. Her tongue was not
sore or anything. A couple of days later, her tongue started to swell
more, and it began to get really sore, so sore, that she could not
eat.

She went back to the hospital, and demanded something be done. The
doctor took an x-ray of her tongue,and noticed a lump.

He prepared her for minor surgery. When the doctor cut her tongue
open, a live roach crawled out. There were roach eggs on the seal of
the envelope. The egg was able to hatch inside of her tongue, because
of her saliva. It was warm and moist...

Hey, I used to work in an envelope factory. You wouldn't believe
the.....things that float around in those gum applicator trays. I
haven't licked an envelope for years.

To All:

I used to work for a print shop (32 years ago) and we were told NEVER
to lick the envelopes. I never understood why until I had to go into
storage and pull out 2500 envelopes that were already printed for a
customer who was doing a mailing and saw several squads of roaches
roaming around inside a couple of boxes with eggs everywhere. They
eat the glue on the envelopes. I think print shops have a harder
time controlling roaches than a restaurant.

I always buy the self sealing type. Or if need be I use a glue stick
to seal one that has the type of glue that needs to be wet to stick.

Hmmmm Rotten.com. Horrifying isn't it? Few months ago my eldest wanted to go on the net using my log-on, allegedly so she could do a proper unrestricted search for homework purposes. I told her yes, as long as she stuck to exactly what she was looking for and didn't go trawling anything suspect. Ten minutes later (ten minutes!!!!!) she's back syaing "Have you sever seen Rotten.com?" I said no and went to have a look. She's f@cking lucky I didn't ban her from the internet for life.
