I heard a story once about a condom factory that also manufactured nipples on baby bottles .... I guess it was a Win Win situation for them

Quite timely, Jan, as this morning's newspaper carried a public warning not to use the same condom (or female accoutrements) twice. A product recall seems hazardous to the health of postal employees, so look out for squishy mail! Aloha! Rico

Whoa!! That would be a bit of a surprise. Enjoyed reading your work. Thanks for stopping by. There is a church that was built not too far from here and the man who gave the most money or practically built the church owned a condom company and when he sold it and retired he built the church with some of the money.
