Something smells funny about this?

Post by Andy DePaule »

Something smells funny about this?
Remember when shopping for Old Spice was a simple choice? Only one to pick from.
Yesterday I went to Walmart and being a hot day remembered something I kept forgetting.
Well now it was confusing because they now have about 20 kinds of smells* to pick from!
*My wife tells me it's a "Fragrance" but to me it just smells! :lol:

Then I found this one and just had to get it and pass it on to all the guys and gals who pick the slidin' string thingy. :oops: :roll: :lol:

Can't say it makes me more honorable or smell like Sandalwood, but it is an improvement on a hot summer day.
Also it did seem to improve my playing a little today! :oops: :lol: :D

I’m sure it’s an improvement over Carrol Shelby’s product from the 60’s….

That looks like something Shelby would come up with. Here's an old picture of us, back when we were best friends.

HI Andy,
I put that Old Spice on my strings to keep stinky clams away!
Just kidding! I also use the Old Spice, you have to use it under both arms though. Right Guard is only for the right side, I think, all though, I have never seen Left Guard on the shelf.
Just north of the Weird place, south of Georgetown
