Quiz--CLUE

Well, you made some good guesses but pretty far off base so her

One of my cycling buddies told me last year, "You know, I've been riding with you for a long time and I don't know the first thing about you." I've thought about putting in a background section but am too modest to brag about the usual stuff like having once answered two Jeopardy questions in a row, graduated from junior high school, chickened out of petting a rattlesnake....you know, the things everyone has done. However, thinking about my trip triggered a memory and I thought I would share it. I once wrote a book (it sold 12 copies I think) about a product that was developed by a man who got the idea for the product after touring a factory where condoms were made during WWII. Can you guess what that product, which has sold millions and millions and is still sold today, is?

Two old ladies were outside their nursing home, having a smoke when it started to rain. One of the ladies pulled out a condom, cut off the end, put it over her cigarette and continued smoking.

Lady 1: "What's that?"

Lady 2: "A condom. This way my cigarette doesn't get wet."

Lady 1: "Where did you get it?"

Lady 2: "You can get them at any drugstore."

The next day ... Lady 1 hobbles herself into the local drugstore and announces to the pharmacist that she wants a box of condoms. The guy looks at her kind of strangely (she is, after all, over 80 years of age), but politely asks what brand she prefers.

Lady 1: "It doesn't matter as long as it fits a Camel."

Shower cap and latex gloves are good guesses, but you have to take into account the author here and ask yourself... what would inspire Mark to write a book about it?

Inner tubes! That's my guess.

Nice guess... "Inner Tubes", but I don't think that's inspiring enough for Mark.

I'm going to make a couple guesses here:

Lubricant!! A la KY Jelly
Latex Balloons - Probably not

hmmm... what would inspire Mark to write a book??? We know by his writing why it only sold 12 copies... hmmm

EUREKA!!!! I've GOT IT!!!!

Inflatable Blow Up Dolls!!!!!!
