Just got my frit (really fast btw, awesome) and got a chance to test Stone Roses, which I'm liking alot. The thing is, I wasn't sure if I should send back the horribly ugly beads or put them in my ugly bin. I know I read the kids seem to go for the unusual beads, but we're talking hurlific. I do have a lot of frits to go through and I'm taking notes so it'll be awhile till I send them back, so no rush for an answer...would just like to know.

Should I tell the story of the kid who was feeling like poop one day and the bead they chose? True story, heard from a nurse.

What a cool program! Leslie, I signed up for some BOC samples... will the package tell me where to mail the beads back to? Great way to check out new frits and do something for BOC at the same time!

Ha ha ha ha. I'm going to interview the nurse who told it for the blog and ask her to share it. Let's just say, the bead was brown.

Sorry guys! Will do the drawing tonight. Work's been pretty bad - there's a teen suicide pact going on down here, and the daughter of one of my co-workers joined her peers and was the first to do it. We're all in total shock.
