So last year, I was in Madison, Wisconsin for business and upon unpacking in my hotel room, I realized that I had forgotten my deodorant. No problem, I thought, I'll just swing by a store and pick one up. No big deal. So I was off to visit a school and do a little logistical planning.
I came up to a small local grocer and figured that I might as well grab it while I was thinking of it. $1.53??? OK, I'll bite. So off I went back to Middleton to grab some dinner at what was to become one of my favorite dining establishments, Quaker Steak & Lube. (If you have one near, count your blessings.)
About a week or so ago, I was running late to work running from the shower to the bedroom to change, I grabbed this stick of deodorant. After applying liberally, Iwent to give my loving wife a hug and kiss goodbye. As I gave her a peck on the forehead, I could hear her sniffing my shirt. I looked at her and asked what she was doing. She had a look on her face that screamed repulsion. It was like I smeared a dead skunk all over me for crap's sake. She simply asked, "What the freak deodorant did you put on this morning?" That green one I bou..." she then cut me off and said stiffling a sneeze, "You smell like a freaking New York Taxi-Cab..." I stood there, arms still outstretched at a loss for words.
Seriously dear, it took you 5 months to tell me this??? So to all my co-workers/friends/family, I apologize sincerely for subjecting you to that.
Now that will be $55.00.

Nothing wrong with smelling like a cab. And Duelz sorry man, you've always stunk but at least you like a nice Macho Nacho! Count down 2 weeks until we meet again Macho!! Go Jazz!
I never even noticed. Apparently I don't stand close enough to you. But now I'm intrigued...
And $1.53 for deod?! I don't care if you DO smell like you just hugged the PineSol lady. That's a steal.
Awesome...that reminds of the time I had something in my teeth for about half a day. Maybe not as long as 5 weeks, or months...but I know the feeling!
