5/28/2007: Nathan has Completed" Mr Owl Discovers the Truth"



I kinda had to hurry with this one and really didn't give my best effort. I had to help the parents open the pool today and do a bunch of yard work on top of that. I did manage to get the task done. I went to the store and picked up three tootsie pops, red, blue, and orange. I took the blue one out of the package and started to lick. I got about half way through it and I had to go out and help with the pool. I came back in and finished the job. I got to the center in about 250 licks, give or take about 3. The sucker middle still wasn't truly in the middle either. That might be a factor to question. I then too out the red one and started in on it, only this time I went for the bigger ring on the outside of the sucker. I picked the deepest part of the candy, because it took an amazing 650 licks to get to the center. My tongue by this time was pretty dang sore. Plus my mouth was dry from all the yard work. I still had the orange one to go I thought I would try something to ease the soreness of my tongue. I put cube of ice on it for like and hour till I couldn't feel my tongue then started in on the sucker. After about 100 licks I could see a dent, after 200 the numbness started to wear off, and finally the end was in site. 363 licks later I tasted the chocolate center.
I had a good time with this one, but I will have to let my tongue heal before I get another food one. Yall have a good time while I am off becoming a man.
P.S. sorry no pictures really didn't have time to with all that was going on.

Finally, the age old question has been answered! I'm so happy you have completed the task.It's like a load's been lifted off my shoulders. Now I can go on biting my suckers.
