Reader Dylan Gaughan from the wonderful Pimps of Gore is exempted from playing the “solve for x” game because of his experience with too many beach towels:
When the kings of the jungle hit the beach, they do it in style. Now, you can be the cat’s meow of the sandbox by wrapping yourself in this soft but stunning recreation of a tiger in the wild. This large 34″ x 64″ beach towel is smooth to the touch on one side, thick and absorbent on the other. 100% Cotton. Machine washable. Imported.
How does that line from “Open House” by Lou Reed and John Cale on their album Songs for Drella go? Oh yeah: ” You scared yourself with music, I scared myself with paint / I drew 550 different shoes today, it almost made me faint.”
I kept meaning to comment on the awesomeness of that “Drella” quote. That absolutely nails how it feels after writing about so many beach towels.
