| Consumer Tip On What Not To Buy! |
News Brief | |||
I'm a pretty active guy, so when I work hard and play harder, I expect my underpants to keep up with me. These certainly didn't. The brand-name "Christopher's" is certainly one you should stay away from. They have alot of features, but the quality doesn't live up to the advertised durability. Take for example the extra-strength elastic waistband. It's supposed to hold up even the biggest load, but I often find them slipping off to reveal "plumber's crack" - the most dreaded of all underwear phenomena. Men expect a strong waistband which remains elastic and firm after many washes. This underwear just can't take it when the going gets rough. Also, the forward slot is not well designed, and takes alot of effort to open in an emergency. Combine these two letdowns, and you're left with a pile of shabby cotton which tends to rise and cling. Of all the products The Mudpile has reviewed, this is one of the biggest disappointments ever to catch our attention. "Christopher's" Underwear " It was so embarrassing to watch the doctor laughing at my sagging underpants. Was my face red !" Barry Chin "When the guys in the locker room saw my underwear, they all chipped in to buy me another type. Something tells me I won't be buying Christopher's again..."

Dog saves Master from Drowning - Then Mauls him to Death Vlaserstok, Norway - A fisherman almost drowned after falling off his boat, but his 4 year old German Shepherd pulled him to safety. Minutes later, the dog mauled the man to bits and pieces. The fisherman did not survive the vicious attack. Born Hermsen was fishing for trout just a few miles from home, with his best friend Evan Shlammer. Hermsen slipped and fell out of the rowboat into the chilling waters of the Reighwt Fjord. His buddy Shlammer was unable to help, due to the fact that he had a wooden leg and could not swim. Although certain death was looming, the shepherd dove into the river and managed to drag his master out of the water. Suddenly, the shepherd attacked him and chewed him to ribbons, stopping only when he noticed that the body was limp and lifeless. Police are investigating the matter, and have since put the dog to "sleep". Shlammer was shaken, but had this to say : " I know what happened...It was Born's fault I think. The dog expected a treat for his good deed and when Born couldn't find one, the dog tore him up like a rag doll. Dogs love cheese , you know...Had he been carrying a piece of cheese, he might have been alive now". Hermsen has no next of kin, and Shlammer is determined to keep his friend's memory alive. He will have Hermsen stuffed by a taxidermist and will display him in the living room of his home. " It's the least I can do for Hermsen...he was the only friend I had." |
