NEVER LICK ENVELOPES
A woman was working in a post office in California.
One day she licked the envelopes and postage stamps instead of using a
sponge. That very day the lady found a cut on her tongue. A week later, she
noticed an abnormal swelling of her tongue. She went to the doctor, and they
found nothing wrong. Her tongue was not sore or anything. A couple of days
later, her tongue started to swell more, and it began to get really sore, so
sore, that she could not eat. She went back to the hospital, and demanded
something be done. The doctor took an x-ray of her tongue and noticed a
lump. He prepared her for minor surgery. When the doctor cut her tongue
open, a live cockroach crawled out!!!!
There were cockroach eggs on the seal of the envelope. The egg was able to
hatch inside of her tongue, because of her saliva. It was warm and moist...
This is a true story reported on CNN

Hey, I used to work in an envelope factory. You wouldn't believe
the....things that float around in those gum applicator trays. I
haven't licked an envelope for years!" I used to work for a print shop
(32 years ago) and we were told NEVER to lick the envelopes. I never
understood why until I had to go into storage and pull out 2500 envelopes
that were already printed and saw several squads of cockroaches roaming
around inside a couple of boxes with eggs everywhere. They eat the glue on
the envelopes.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON, TO YOUR FRIENDS. After reading this you will never lick
another envelope or stamp again.

Would I be out of line by pointing out that the friend with the questionable
and mysterious tongue irregularity has not been biopsied for nor diagnosed
with tongue cancer per se. Someone not following these conversations could
be easily led the situation and post title to believe that CS cures tongue
cancer.
