they called him mr. NO-FOAM

who hear likes YAHTZEEEEEE? probably many of you and me as well, so understand this: One thing thats always a crucial part of the game is deciding on what name to put atop your scorecard - sort of like in video game HI_SCORES (KJK, RKY, ETC>>>) but more possiblities. A couple of months ago I had to thank cermak for solving this dilemma for me. After I had named her after her favoriter beisbol player, "#44 Sexson," she came up with a great NOM DE GUERRE for moi: "MR> NO_FOAM"

the reasons behind this are many or, if you will, MANIFOLD....I've always hated FOAM. not sea-foam mind you but foam in its SOLID form (foam on beer or in bathtubs is OK with me!!). One of the worst examples of this is at MOTELS when there is a gross FOAM blanket under the comforter . If this touches my body I freak out ˚∆˙ø¨˙∆∂øˆ (many can attest)!!!

Most people thought the NO-FOAM philosophy was a quirk or personality-flaw or FOBIA until the recent events befalling the SPACESHUTTLE. I counted 87 references to foam in the NY times, one of the best old-school style news sources. The final word is the scienstists at NASA just announced an official NO-FOAM policy for all fuure outer space travells!!!!

  1. i don't understand that foam thing. Sea-foam is disgusting, but mattress foam is pure and good. Can't you imagine being thrown into a huge pit filled with shreds of this foam - like the mcdonald's ball thing, etcept bottomless?

  2. I also have a FOAMY phobia... STYROfoam. The sound of it crunching under feet, or rubbing on teeth... Eeek. RELATEDLY, the sound of snow under snowboots resembles the sound (and perceived feeling) of styroFOAM... Gross. Hotel blankets freak me out.
