Sizzlin' Nuggets

Blue Q makes the cutest things. I got a pack of this "Boss Lady" gum the last time I visited my friend in North Carolina. Here are pictures of the entire package.



If I were a dominatrix, the cowgirl get-up might be my thing. Chew'em up and spit'em out. With a little help from Snappy. ;-)



I love the attention to detail in this printed reverse side of the packaging. Isn't this Boss Lady Country a fun little map? The tied up bundles of men and the running guys are so cute. ;-)




I also got this "Next to the Last Supper" gum. Well, maybe it's a sin, but the Bonus Shroud (printed inside) really cracks me up:



If you've ever seen a guy with a huge wad of chewing tobacco in his cheek like that you might find it even funnier. It's part of the baseball symbolism of the "trading card" theme, because baseball players have been known for their chewing tobacco.

Hi Rae! Nice new design of your blog, I haven't yet told you. A technicality: I cannot send you e-mail from gmail.com - it is blocked for some reason (spam-filter?). Do you have another e-mail address to try? Have a nice Sunday! LM

Hi Lubos! Thanks! I'm hoping that the email problems are cleared up now. Sorry about the inconvenience.

You have a great blog... just stumbled upon it through Scorpions... might have to steal the "Cement Pond" vid. Relativity new to blogging but you are hilarious!
