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.
