In the words of Dr. Weird, "Gentlemen! Behold! I cleaned this out of my dryer's lint trap!" Or something like that, and he'd motion to something behind the large garage door-type thingy and something funny and violent would happen to either him or his assistant... Ok, I'll stop talking now.
I'm not really that crazy, lint is germane to my intended topic, as I noticed that I had failed to clean it for some time, and it was taking forever to dry clothing. What exactly is lint, and why do we need to trap it? Is is useful? Is it recyclable? Can it be used as an alternative energy source for my house and/or automobile? These are questions I'm sure we've all asked ourselves on one occasion or another, and I'm finally here to admit that I don't know the answer. I rarely drive steamboats, and I don't know the source, nor use of lint, be it of the pocket variety or the more exotic belly-button strain.
Therefore, in the spirit of science, learning, and all that other useless stuff, I say we take our hard-earned $8.03 profit from the Convogi-store and start the "Living With Lint Foundation" to study ways that lint can be more effectively incorporated into daily life and be proactively involved with all manner of lint-related research. After all, we owe it to ourselves, we owe it to our children, and we certainly owe it to our favorite shirt which is now faded and frayed at the collar from all too many washing and drying sessions. Afterall, it is because of the sacrifices of our shirt that we have lint in the first place.
I should really stop posting at such hours with so little sleep. I wish I could sleep 'til Friday.
