These are hand soaps, get it? Hand soaps. I ran across these looking for a photo of something else. I thought about buying some of these for my kid's bathroom. You know, tell the kids they use the hands of little boys and girls that died of infectious diseases because they didn't wash their hands properly to make soap for the good little kids who actually take time to wash their hands correctly. I resisted however, because the kids bathroom is also the guest bathroom and I was afraid guests might think we were trying to make some sort of political statement in the abortion debate.

What a coincidence!!! I just put a bumper sticker on my car that says, "It's not a choice it's a hand soap!"

That makes sense in my head.

Less so in print.

Oh god, I need to buy a case of those for The Girl's preschool. Because some of the parents are off the charts phobic about H1N1. And being able to provide their children with your explanation about where the hands came from?

Well, I think you know that would pretty much make my year.

That is some creepy shit. Imagine the used product. Zombie soap.

I like your idea. I think a combination of guilt and fear is a pretty effective parenting approach.

They are hysterical. Kind of like little sea anemones there waving in the currents of life. Not sure they would be quite so appealing once reduced to a grubby, foamy, gelatinous mass. What? You mean the soap in your kid's bathroom DOESN'T look like that?

Color me weird, but I am digging the hand soap. And I know that my family would love them too. Gotta go search the interwebs!!

OMG so funny.

Can you believe I just read your comment from June 8 in the "pictures" section of my blog about doing a video for my kids?

Thanks for the offer and I will email you soon.

Too weird for me. I think one of them waved at me.

Those are kind of creepy. I might have nightmares of amputated hands reaching out to me tonight! : )

I think I like them? Reminds me of Season 1 of Dexter--The Ice Truck Killer. Not the message you're shooting for, I imagine.
