Your informant was probably correct about the leeches.

True, but only in migratory flocks that appear around July 4th and Labor Day.

Doh.

This was given to me by a friend. I think it should be more than playa worthy!

In its basic form it is like a kleen canteen

When disassembled it can act as a plain ole cup (or two)

It also packs up pretty well

Still haven't tried disassembling it while it is full, though I'm pretty sure I know the outcome. Hasn't stopped me before.

I also like that it happens to have my name embossed around the center

Hey, a personally embossed water jug is just the cat's pajamas!

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

The nude are still expected to provide their own cups. That's why God & Batman invented utility belts.

But I concur, with regards to the towels. :shock:
