No such thing as coincidences.

My son said they had the most fun with Marine X’s package. He said he wasn't sure who we were sending the pack to, but the panties were size 20, and he said one of the guys got on top of the humvee and jumped off with the panties over his head and yelled, "Look at me, I'm an Airborne Ranger!!!!". He said one of the guys attached the panties to an antenna and it blew in the wind like a windsock. He said it entertained them for quite awhile.

Oy! Self abuse! I wonder if they have photos of this. Who is the commander of this outfit?!?! This is cruel and inhuman behavior!! Who does he think he is, a prisoner, or something???? </sarcasm>

If the military needs Chap Stik, the should contact Whitehall-Robins, in Richmond, VA. They were my client in 1996. Whitehall-Robins is a divsion of American Home Products, based in NJ.

I put together their ERP, CRM and Advanced Pricining, AR, AP, and GL pieces of the project.

I also did the FDA qualification process for the Feds on their prescription side of the business.

Wyeth Ayerest was a major portion of the project as well; in that their drugs were more of an "esoteric" nature.

"Mom did you know that tampons expand?"

LOLROTFLMAORFIAPIMP! Duh.

[SuziQ]

Heh, maybe it's because the Red Cross First Aid Class was for Girl Scout leaders, but we were taught about using sanitary napkins and tampons on heavily bleeding wounds, cause our First Aid kits always have these.

I guess the Marines never got that memo; but you can be sure the story will be going around over there!

[US_MilitaryRules]

Great story. I have not seen this before either. And quitch yer bietchen knowitalls!!

Tampons are awesome when used with Windex for cleaning your interior car windows and ducts. I went to Kroger and bought several boxes last month and the look on the over-pierced male teenie face metro-sexual was priceless, true.

Once one gets past the taboo of the associated stereotypes it becomes a no-brainer. I used tampons to stain a 60-year oak door, clipped a piece to level the dining room table from wobbling, and cleaned some window jams and so forth.

In fact, they are so handy I wish they made them bigger but there is a marketing issue so I'll stick with the small ones when staining an antique desk just picked at the local flea market. <\grin>

Someone needs to see that similar products, relabeled of course, are included in each Marine and Soldier's load. Just like they carry compression bandages. Probably take 10 years and Congressional intervention to get the things standardized and approved, but better late than never. Meanwhile Marines and Soldiers will do what's needed, regardless of the REMFs, in this case WREMFs from way way back in the rear (Somewhere in the DC area probably, which is in the rear in more ways than one :) )

Another Tampon story!

I had a girl friend back in the 1970's that introduced me to a couple she knew - he was an Ensign in the Navy stationed in San Diego.

He was an up-an-comer and his wife was a gorgeous scandanivian blond. They were invited out on the Captain's Gig for a day of fishing offshore of San Diego. This was a big deal because the Capt. was the Capt. of an aircraft carrier.

Fishing wasn't so hot and to top it off, an oil line broke on the Capt's Gig and they were dead in the water. The Motorman tried in vain to seal the leak - and they were about to call for another shore boat to come out to rescue them - and event that would have been vastly embarassing to the Capt....and probably career-ending for the motorman when the Ensign's wife whispered to her husband - "could this help" and pulled a tampon out of her purse.

To make a long story short, they put the tampon in the oil line and it sealed up the leak perfectly. They were able to continue the day fishing - actually caught some fish - and proceed back to port normally.

The Ensign and his wife were invited to every high-level military gathering thereafter and his career was on a rocket ride.

His wife complained that she couldn't go shopping without everyone whispering and pointing - "that's the gal that fixed the Captains gig".

Ever since the FIRST time I heard this story, I've been wondering...Since Tampons are supposed to absorb blood, would tampons used in this way suck blood out of the body? Wouldn't that be a bad thing?

[BigSkyFreeper]

Good story. First time I read this, even if it had been posted ten times already.

[Libertina]

LOLOL God DOES work in mysterious ways ;)
