How Many Licks?



OK, so we all remember the Tootsie Pop Owl.
Generic Cartoon Kid: "How many licks does it take to get to the centre of a Tootsie Pop?"
Mr. Owl (grabbing the Tootsie Pop): "Let's see...one, two, three...CRUNCH!"

So yesterday I was enjoying a Tootsie Pop: classic brown-wrapper-chocolate-flavor. And I'm lickin' and lickin' and trying my best not to crunch and to wait patiently until I get to that yummy chewy centre. And...it never happens. MY TOOTSIE POP WAS TOOTSIE-LESS! Mr. Owl woulda been lickin' to infinity and never get there. It woulda been the longest commercial in history. Anyways. The Tootsie Pop was curiously unenjoyable without the Tootsie Roll centre. Do we think I could write to Mr. Tootsie Pop about this? Would I get some free Tootsie Pops? Is this post boring and or slightly obscene? Could be. This is what happens when your boyfriend goes home.
