Back

I’m back at work.  Feeling a little better, thanks to plenty of herbal tea and good old-fashioned drugs.

Seems I covered myself pretty well at work.  Only a few emails and no voice messages waiting for me.  It’s like I never left.

I was watching television when I was sick, and I saw perhaps the stupidist commercial I had ever seen.  Most of the time when I see a product that I don’t think works (knives that never dull, get rich quick schemes), I usually just shake my head.  But when I saw this, it was so ridiculous, so far-fetched, that after I stopped laughing, I had to wonder…

It’s so utterly stupid that it might be true.  I mean, some stuff you just can’t make up.

Kinoki Foot Pads (Warning, the link has a video that auto-plays, so if you’re in a quiet work environment, be careful)

Yes, I kid you not.  Foot pads.  Apparently, by putting these pads on, they will draw the toxins out of your body, like parasites, asbestos, and all sorts of foreign elements.  This is evidenced by the pad turning black overnight.  You’re supposed to continue to use them until the pad remains white overnight.

The removal of these foreign elements are supposed to make you feel healthier, sleep better, and live longer.

I mean… wow.

Zel-kun out.
