Vast Array Of Lip-Balm Options Paralyzes Shopper
by PLANT CITY, FL-- Looking for relief for her dry, chapped lips, Walgreens shopper Danielle Liddle was paralyzed with indecision Monday upon confronting the store's vast, intimidating array of lip balms. "I just wanted some simple lip balm, and there was this entire wall," Liddle said. "Blistex, Carmex, Chap Stick, Bonne Bell Lip Smackers, Vaseline Lip Therapy, Burt's Beeswax--I didn't even know how to begin the selection process." After nearly 30 minutes of browsing, Liddle narrowed her choices down to Blistex mint, Walgreens cherry medicated, and Chap Stick Ultra SPF 30.
how true, how true. How many people find themselves in similar situations. There are also countless flavors of skittles, where do we find ourselves in that whirlwind of choices?!

Todd, now I see why you were so excited last night. Good story.
hahaha, I love the onion. but, reader beware! sometimes they have some R-rated content on their site. infrequently though. I remember the story they ran about how Napster ran Kid Rock onto the streets because he wasn't making any money from music on Napster, so he had to eat his little midget brother for food. Sick! Yet-- stangely funny. As long as you take it with a grain of salt.
yeah, I love the "man on the street" interviews. they use the same pictures over and over again, but give them different names.
