The Snusification of America - nay - the WORLD

[Gurn Blandston]

Yeah, it was fun. I'll probably not see the guy till the Christmas party, so I'll give an update then or if I run into him before.

He was pretty receptive, though, so I have high hopes. It was my last can of General I gave him, so I have to order more!

Next thing I know, I was saying things like "The Swedish Experience", "Gothiatek", and "TSNAs".

Hilarious! I think I have given that speech a few times Some people are super receptive, but others think it's smoe kind of scam.

I have a buddy who quit smoking and started dipping Cope and what have you, and he was telling me about his bleeding gums and spitting and whatnot - So I busted out my can of N&J and dropped the knowledge bomb on him. He was not interested at all, even when I told him how much Cheaper it is :?

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!!!
