On being "dropped" by Kellogg
tagged with:
Poor Michael Phelps. I hope tabloid photo-journalists won't mind losing their jobs one day after their coke-parties and drinking games have been uncovered. However, whilst it's not very nice being dumped, who would want to work for Kellogg anyway.
This is a firm whose family founders were rather bonkers. Whilst it was his brother, W K Kellogg, that founded the company, the actual cornflake inventor (whose only creditworthiness seems to have been that he wanted his recipe to be "open source" rather than patented - which is where his brother and he parted company), was John Harvey Kellogg who, amongst other things...
Was into yoghurt enemas - believing that they would replace the "good bacteria" in the colon that he had had his patients wash out with water enemas via his patent enema machine.
Didn't do sex - adopted six(?) kids but never, it seems, had so much as a canoodle with his wife and throughout their marriage slept in separate bedrooms.
Campaigned against masturbation, claiming it led to all sorts of physical and mental ailments. He advocated, therefore, unanaesythetised circumcision for boys so that the pain discouraged them from ever touching their mutilated little wee-wees and putting carbolic acid on the clitoris to do similar for females. Also binding up boys hands to stop them fiddling with themselves and making them wear wire cages over their genitals (that he did patent!) - all the way up to electric shock treatment for persistent wankers.
The only possible sensible connection with Michael Phelps I can come across is his habit of chucking patients from his sanatorium off the end of the jetty into the nearby freezing lake.
Apart from the money - he is well rid I'd say. Now, maybe he can persuade Speedo to endorse a new campaign on amphetamines....;)

You've put me right off my breakfast - thanks!
Especially when the alternative is Nestle! I can, however, completely rcommend the Dorset Ceareals products, but probably still without a carton of yoghurt taken rectally. Lactobacillus casei Shirota rules!
