The only thing that I get out of it is something about snuggling up to sheet metal (maybe while listening to More Like Me?).
Discuss it amongst yourselves . . .

Either that or Webb has a sheet metal franchise in Iceland. Or not. :) | |

My wife and I were happy for 30 years. Then we met each other. | I admit, it is a bit confusing. I coulda sworn Webbco divested its sheet-metal subsidiary in 1998.
Ironically, I was "snuggled up to sheet metal" all last weekend replacing the gutters on the back of my garage. Got the cuts 'n scrapes to prove it, too. | |

You know how Wayne Industies got the Batmobile spare parts and all? I mean, you don't think that's an ORDINARY hat, do you? You don't think that's REALLY a Hiwatt amp, surely...Anyway, the sheet metal companies served their purpose for a time but, now I need a Nomex II Pro suit as I'm working on flying under my own steam (with the aid of some as of yet unavailable to the loving public devices, of course) to the gigs at such a high rate of speed that ordinary clothes would be burnt away from my well proportioned swaggering bulk before I got to Tuscaloosa for instance. Arrrivng at the show smoking and nude would never do so, Omatic, as you are the "Alfred" of this organization...make some corporate acquisitions on my behalf post haste!.... disappears in a flutter of wings and a hint of English Leather | |

One christmas morning I became a man when I unwrapped the English Leather gift box -- a trifecta of cologne, after shave and a deodorant stick.That musky scented rubbing alcohol sure does leave a trail ... might be kinda dangerous for a superhero... though clearly less so than Brut. | |

I know I have still 'em because my long-suffering wife, who was there during the cologne and post-cologne years, tried to persuade me to get rid of them recently- not gon' do it. I doubt that the Icelanders comprehend any of this! | |

Cologne ages like a fine wine - I say you uncork it for a special occaision w/ your lady... and watch the magic happen!
A Cologne Afficianato reviewer noted that well-aged Pierre Cardin had "top notes of bacchanalia and polyester with hints of stripper sweat and cream-filled cannoli." 11 | |

Or snuggling up in some Musk-Ox sheets in bed? Now that sounds romantic. Especially when you are wearing some of Floyd's Hai Karate, while mssing one sideburn. Of course, when Iceland declares war on us we will only have ourselves to blame! | |
