Like all good Americans, I succeed by the sweat of my brow. I am in possession of an entrepreneurial spirit equaled by the likes of Pullman, Astor, Bell and Edison. Relentless in my search for the next opportunity for riches to strike me like a lightning bolt, I'm always thinking.
Throughout my life - and the life of this blog - I've explored those get rich quick schemes, like the time I confessed my desire to make millions inventing names for college bands. Sadly, such dreams of glory have remained just that...dreams.
But now I think I'm on the cusp of Great Things. When I introduce my new confectionary gadget, the Pope-Pez™!Think of it! It's candy! It's religion! Two great treats in one! Simply cock back the head of your Pope-Pez™ and get ready to receive absolution - and minty fresh breath - all in one!
And the possibilities are nearly endless. You can create a different Pope-Pez™ for every Pope. Collect all 265...from Saint Peter to Pope Benedict XVI! And it doesn't end there. We can make a different candy for different sins. Need to cover an adultery? Spearmint should take care of that. Using the Big Man's name in vain again? Sounds like you need a licorice-flavored treat. Murder someone lately? Well, friend, you need to pony up for a six-pack.
All I need for this brainchild is some money. About an even million should do it. Any backers out there?

Man, do I smell smoke??
No doubt the fire from my wooden head...
Lets take it furthur. How about pill dispenser. Since the elderly may have trouble reading the label of the bottle, put an indicator where the Pope's head whould go. A heart for heart meds, a arm cuff for blood pressure meds, you get the idea. Just pop back the top and instant relief.
You might have to get creative for your viagra meds..
Wow! Not only can we rip off a little something from Pez, but I'm betting that we'd hear from Milton-Bradley, the fine folks who brought you "Operation".
I like it...
Wow.
I think I am in the presence of sheer brilliance here...
(Just don't quit making great wine, okay?)
Your pez pictures are taking on a Terry Gilliam sort of look..
Next thing you know I'll be asking my friend, Neddy, if he wants to hunt piggy banks...
...now how's THAT for an obscure Gilliam reference? Hmmm?
