When I saw this afternoon,I muttered "BS" and moved on-didn't even react to the Niterider (Knight-Rider) credit.
Why would you do that...I understand humor, and even read Scrappleface and the Onion regularly, but this seems a bit on the "fast and loose" on an ethics scale of my own making.

That's the beauty of it. It's free.
But what about all those poor kids that dont have a dryer in the family home?

"Fast and loose" on the ethics scale... please explain.
To: R. Scott
Yes, I know, but that is a little too ambitious for me. So many projects begun, so few completed. Easier to turn it into mulch or let the birds use it for nesting materials.

"(Knight-Rider) Charleston, S.C. -- Marianne Watson is your typical D..."My bold.
Makes it appear to be a legitimate news source, even though it's obviously not, at least if you know the difference between Knight-Ridder and Night-Rider.
Your writing style is pretty good; I suspect this will be believed by many out on the net, and another urban myth will be born, or possibly some dumba$$ will try to smoke the lint.
I just have a problem with this type of "spoof".
That's why I stated an ethics scale of my own making
That's just me, you obviously have no requirement to adhere to my scale on anything, just my two cents.
Or maybe I was feeling a little grumpy last night...nothing to see here.

I was surfing through the channels once and saw a home decorating show. The lady was making fancy molded paper thingies from dryer lint.

Hey, thanks for clarifying your statement. I appreciate it.
To: R. Scott
I know, I know, I am a slug. I even have a book on paper making. Have I ever made paper. No. But I really like the idea.
Maybe I'll make some cool lamp shades. My dryer lint has a lot of cat hair in it, maybe the lamp shades made of cat hair won't show the new cat hair so much.
Sorry, rambling.

Let me tell you, I have a lot of uses for cat hair. Probably my most widely used use (?) is adding texture and visual interest to my clothing, as well as my carpet, my hardwood floor, my food, my furniture, you name it. Another favorite use is clogging my vacuum filters, great for that. The best use is padding my mattress.
Man, those little buggers are lucky I love them.
An actual use is to put the cat hair in your garden to keep the squirrels from digging around. No luck there so far, maybe the cat needs to be attached to it. Cat hair does do great things for mulch though - nitrogen, I think.

I think having the cat attached to the hair would do it.
I used to blame my clogged vacuum on my little dog until I noticed the hair was gray. The dog is blonde.

I really hate the pain that comes with trying to laugh and inhale smoke at the same time.
