Letters to the Editor
How Do You Seal Your Envelopes? Dear Editor; Do you lick your envelopes? If you lick your envelopes, you won't anymore. In California, a lady licked envelopes and postage stamps instead of using a sponge. That very day the lady cut her tongue on the envelope. A week later, she noticed an abnormal swelling of her tongue. She went to the doctor, and they found nothing wrong. Her tongue was not sore or anything. A couple of days later, her tongue started to swell more, and it began to get really sore - so sore that she could not eat. She went back to the hospital and demanded something be done. The doctor took an x-ray of her tongue and noticed a lump. He prepared her for minor surgery. When the doctor cut her tongue open, a live roach crawled out. There were roach eggs on the seal of the envelope. The egg was able to hatch inside of her tongue, because of her saliva. It was warm and moist... This is a true story reported on CNN. Writes Andy Hume: "Hey I used to work in an envelope factory. You wouldn't believe the things that float around in those gum applicator trays. I haven't licked an envelope for years." Sincerely, C.L. o Bridgeport Editor's Reply: C.L. - Yuck! What a tale. As a public service, we'll reprint this little piece for our readers.
