MOTM Magic Bags(r)--Beware!

2000-05-09 by Tentochi

Too late.  I already took his advice for putting weed in it.  Here are the
results:

Dandelions--the yellow flowers turned purple in the MOTM bags
Foxtail--turned into beaver tail
Poison Ivy--turned into English Ivy, but was three times itchier
Clover--at first they had 4 leaves, then 7, then thousands
Field Bindweed--smelled like steak and onions after being in the bag only 10
seconds
Crabgrass--tasted just like Maine soft-shelled crabs
Mallow--turned into melted marshmallow from a s'mora
Purslane--was able to cover my bald spot with it after removing from the
magic bag
Sheperd's Purse--turned into kangaroo's pouch
Downy Brome--its purple flowers turned to wheat flower
Sandbur--turned into a ferret

Moral--beware of Paul's Magic Bags(r)
