thanks but that may be a little dreary for someone who is undergoing treatment for breast cancer. :)

Sorry, didn't know what it was for.

That's ok -- I didn't take the time to explain the story. :) One of the gals who I went to Vegas with this summer was diagnosed with breast cancer right before we went. We met this goofy guy from Gillette Wyoming while we were in Vegas (he was on our flights actually), and he made quite an impression and not a good one if you know what I mean? Anyway, she starts radiation treatment next Monday and the other Vegas gals and I are putting together a care package for her. She will have to drive 3 hours one way to spend a week in another town to get treatment for the next 6 weeks. We wanted to make her a cd of some of "our" songs, and we are trying to think of one that has Gillette in it.

And as Paul Harvey would say, now you know the rest of the story.

I'm surprised that no country or folk songs pop right up for "Gillette". The only lyrics that keep coming up are Gillette razor jingles. Probably not the right theme.

I, personally, know of no "Gillette" limerics but I'll start one here and maybe inspired members can fill in....

There once was a guy from Gillette
Who bragged of a Big Red Corvette.



(Substitute "jerk" if it works better. :-)

And please pass our best wishes to your friend. I hope all goes wonderfully well.
