Typhoid Harry preparing to make history.
A faithful American prepares to announce the government soulution to the financial crisis.
I wonder if he’ll show up at the public library where that street person who hasn’t bathed in five years lives?
Let’s see now, it says to go least, five blocks and then south one block and a Mr Barney Frank will answer the door.

How does he earn a living giving away free hugs? He makes it up in volume.
It turns out that while the hugs are free, they are the cheap foreign made imported hugs, not the real, genuine American hugs.
The ‘Free sex’ opening line wasn’t working to well, but the less threatening approach isn’t going so hot either.
Dear sir,
I am a secretary treasure of United States. We have a need to quickly move $700 billion dollars to avert a global financial crisis and your assistance would be of greatest profit to you and I. After sending your checking account number, please to make up sign offering ‘FREE HUGS’ and our local representative will meet you at the mall to provide your remuneration.

I really don’t think a ‘Dear John’ letter and a sign for free hugs qualifies as letting him down easy.
Dang yahoo maps. This isn’t a day care.

Wikipedia says it all: “Human sweat itself is largely odorless until it is fermented by bacteria. Bacteria thrive in hot, humid, acidic environments. The human underarm is among the consistently warmest areas on the surface of the human body, and sweat glands provide moisture, which when excreted, has a vitally cooling effect. When adult armpits are washed with pH basic soaps, the skin loses its acid mantel (pH 4.5 – 6), raising the pH to become basic. Bacteria thrive in high pH or base environments. Creating such an environment in the armpit makes it more susceptible to bacterial colonization[1]. The bacteria feed on the sweat from the apocrine glands and on dead skin and hair cells, releasing 3-methyl-2-hexenoic acid in their waste, which is the primary cause of body odor[2]. It is healthy and necessary to sweat[3]. Underarm hair is designed to wick the moisture away from the skin and aids in keeping the skin dry enough to prevent or diminish bacterial colonization. The hair is less susceptible to bacterial growth and therefore is ideal for preventing the bacterial odor[4].”
