My wife's boss is a lifelong dipper and has been trying to give it up for health/expense reasons without much success. I sort of know the guy, but only in passing. We were visiting and the topic rolled around to how god-awful hard it is to quit chewing (which is what we call dipping around here).
The preacher in me rose up out of the depths of my atheistic soul and I was off. I became Gurn the Snus Evangelist, crying out in the wilderness of ignorance.
Next thing I know, I was saying things like "The Swedish Experience", "Gothiatek", and "TSNAs". Before you knew it, the guy was walking away with my whole can of snus. In a small notebook, he scribbled down the various web addresses that lead to salivation.
His only difficulty: the upper lip.
"The UPPER lip?" he kept saying, incredulous. "Really? The UPPER lip?"
"You don't HAVE to," I explained. "After all, this is America. You can stick it in your armpit for all I care."
He liked the taste and especially the health/expense benefits.
I think I may have just converted someone!!!
