There's another story at the source that includes this quote...

I think print shops have a harder time controlling roaches than a restaurant.

But it says "This is a true story reported on CNN."

I think I'd actually be glad if it wasn't true -- too disgusting.

See see..Eric knows what I'm talking about! This is like the guy who appears every year and sleeps with some girl in the freshman class and writes on her mirror with lipstick that he just gave her a terrible STD. This is how santa got started.

I wanna start an urban legend.

Damn!

First of all, the story was not reported on CNN. Pasting such authoritative-sounding taglines into the text of hoaxes circulating on the Internet in an effort to give them credibility is commonplace, and this is just another case of some nameless prankster doing just that.
I'm still not licking my envelopes. They taste bad anyways.

Yea busted or not I'll be thinking about this for some time to come and can't see myself doing any envelope licking either.

Who uses envelopes anyway? If you want to post something to someone, just attach it to an email and click "send". But don't lick the "outbox" icon, as a precaution for W32.Roach.Egg worms.

Kool...

Just on the probability side of things. I am guessing that more than a billion people a year lick more than a 100 envelops a year and have been doing so for the last 100+ years. Making this, even if it were absolutely true in one case the equivalent of a risk of less than

1:10,000,000,000,000

You have a much better chance of getting hit by lightining or being struck by struck by the remanents of some stray object falling out of the sky.

I have something (gross) that's true. It was on television over the weekend. Some program with the theme: 101 things that have been surgically removed from the body. Some woman complained of a lump on the side of her head. Was kinda bothering her. She went to the doctor (camera there the whole time) and the doc seperated her hair away from her scalp and found an ulcer like hole in the skin. Between her scalp and skull was a maggot. Oh yes.... not joking and was totally gross. They deduced that she had been bitten while in the tropics by some type of fly that left its larvae in her scalp. Over time (don't recall how long), it grew. So the doc sent her home for 48 hrs after packing ...

Ouch... yes, that can be a bad boo-boo although I have made it a few times myself.I go thinking I will grab something while I am there then get caught up in the conversation and before I know it, it hits like a freight train.
