THE FAST MODERN PACE TAKES ITS TOLL
It seems a young boy entered the corner grocery store one day and asked the grocer for a box of Duz detergent. The grocer was puzzled and asked why he would want a box of Duz. The boy explained he was going to wash his cat. “Wash your cat? Young man, you know, you shouldn’t wash your cat with this kind of soap,” the grocer complained. But the boy insisted it would be O.K. A few days later, the same boy came back into the store. The grocer recognized him and struck up a conversation. “Say, how’s your cat doing?” The boy said, “Oh, he died.” The grocer responded, “Well, son, you know I warned you not to wash your cat with that Duz detergent! It’s much too strong.” The boy replied, “Aw, mister, the soap didn’t hurt him a bit! It was the spin cycle that got him.”
