Magic

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (MCME) is unbelievable. It is seriously the BEST cleaning product. Ever. I have no idea what type of chemical makeup is required to produce these little rectangular giftlets from heaven, and I don't think I really want to know. Ignorance is bliss for me on this one, but I kinda feel like they are made of something so potent that if I clean my kitchen sink with them 9 more times, it will completely disappear.

If MCME came out in the 50s I think its impact on the liberation of women would be greater than that of the birth control pill. It saves so much time and makes cleaning so easy that I started thinking, "What if there were products like this for other aspects of life?" The potential applications are infinite:

MEDICAL - Mr...NO!...DR. Clean's Cancer Eraser, Dr. Clean's High Blood Pressure Eraser, Dr. Clean's AIDS Eraser. Slogan: "Cure any disease with ease" Okay, so maybe Bono would have one less cause to carry on about, but I'm sure he'll find at least 2 more in its place.

SOCIAL - Mr. Clean's Crackhead Eraser "Savin Yo Life by Erasin'the Pipe". Mr. Clean's Teen Pregnancy Eraser - now with STD blocking power! Come to think of it, this may already be available at Planned Parenthood.

POLITICAL - Mr. Clean's Rhetoric Eraser. "Say Your Goodbyes to Election Year Lies"

PERSONAL - Mr. Clean's (Insert Whatever you Don't like About Yourself Here) Eraser. Anyone could improve upon anything they want with swipe of a wannabe white sponge thing! I think I might have a business idea growing here. I mean - if there are people out there who honestly believe that you can lose weight by eating chocolate, would it really be such a stretch to expect these same people to believe you can delete a dumpy ass with a little scrub a dub dub?

Just thinking...
