Gmail Ad of the Day

March 13, 2009 by WendyB

I have no idea why this appeared next to an email conversation with my friend Monika. Monika, do YOU know?

Picture of Syphilis

Find Picture Of Syphilis at Great Prices.
www.Pronto.com

Or maybe we should ask the person we were talking about!

If this post has whetted your appetite for syphilis, you can get a plush, huggable version from Giant Microbes. Fun for the kids!

    BTW, the other night I dreamed that some freaky guy was trying to throw you over a cliff. And you were totally psyching him out and in the end he put you back down and cried.

    It was rather strange. You looked uber stylish too.

    If that’s what syphilis REALLY looks like, then I had it ALL wrong!

    (ha ha, I’m surprised they didn’t give the snake a cutesy name like SiPhyllis!)

    You know Miss Wendy, we work *very* hard at not taking offense at the specific ads they make us view when checking our email, but we are becoming increasingly paranoid about it!

    However, we do find the little microbe to be more tyhan cute…. and it is pink, after all!
