I'm so F&%#ing confused
I'm sitting in my house waiting for UPS to deliver my new light meter, I hear a creak at the door. Wooo Hooo I say to myself, the dog barks and I run upstairs with the sound of crinkly bubble wrap in my hands. What's this? No light meter but a bag with a Avon catalog in it. Dejected but with the contentment that maybe some lip gloss is in order I open it. Stapled to the cover is a business card saying, "AN ARMY OF ONE". It's a recruiters business card stapled to an Avon catalog. Now I have a decision to make, do I need lip gloss or do I need to join up and kill people?

I really don't need this turmoil, if it had been tupperware then I surely would have joined up for some cookie sheets. I'm not sure the Avon crowd is ready to replace our missing Guardsmen. First they go after our children and now they want our Mom's, the bastards.

1. That's freaking hilarious. And just plain freaky.
No doubt you have an Avon rep who is also related to a soldier or recruiter. God help him or her.

2. I thought that but
it has another card with an email address, cptncoke@*******.net. Either this person is a Captain or Avon uses military titles.

18. I would post the guys name on the business card
but he may get his recruiter buddies and beat me up. My truck is in the driveway with a Kerry and a DU sticker. I'm actually suprised they haven't burned me out already.

10. Try their "Skin So Soft and Deadly" lotion
It works for me. Alleviates dry skin and terrorist problems.

21. I think with every 5 bottles of Skin so Soft
you get a Claymore mine. That's a pretty good deal in anyone's book.

25. I used it to repel blackflies here in Maine.
It works very well but you have to keep reapplying it. I guess I'm lucky I still have skin.
