Default mysterious killer scrubber sponge

OK, I got a hot tip from the kitchen sink. It's called the Power Puff and
is a cylinder shaped sponge on a handle. You can buy them at Walmart for
about $2.50. It's got a white handle, a yellow cylinder shaped sponge with
a blue scrubby thing on the flat top of the cylinder. Perfect for glasses
and rounded items like bowls, storage containers, etc.

This thing is MONSTER! It's the most important tool in my dishwasher job.
It's basically a sponge on a stick (handle), but it's the material/makeup of
the sponge itself that is amazing. It's a very open celled stiff foam type
sponge. The foam is strong enough to take on all but burnt on foods. Some
burnt-on if it's not too bad, then I go to a SS scrubby. It's perfect for
dried egg yolk and stuck-on melted cheese. Here's the clincher.... it's
impervious to chlorine bleach, so you can soak it in a diluted bleach mix
and kill all bacteria.

I used the first one till the sponge started turning on the handle. I have
no idea how old it was and someone tossed it. When I came in to work and
noticed it gone, I raised hell and demanded a new one. My boss said to go
over to Walmart and buy some more. Cool! Bought 4, 3 for work and 1 for
myself.

I don't like sponges, preferring brushes instead. This thing is the
exception, as it IS exceptional. Should have its own infomercial. Here is
their website and I notice they also make dobie-style sponges. I may try to
get some of these. The website is not working for me (seamonkey on linux)
but it may for you. Check it out.

It doesn't work on Seamonkey for Windows, or using IETab, or using
IE7. But I get the idea.

Works great with Firefox (3) and Chrome.
But what'd you expect from a *real* browser?

The link is not to a real site. It's a sample of a web page designed by
Jason Rhodin. There are no real links on the page and I don't know if
the company or the products exist.

No, just a very good imagination...

I never tried the links!

It's one of the most amateurish web sites I've seen in many years. The
buttons didn't work for me, either. I tried Firefox 3, IE7 and IE tab.

I'll have to look at one the next time I'm at WalMart. It's hard to see
what it looks like from the web site.

Did you try clicking the "buttons" I can see the page on FF3 and IE7
and IE tab, but the buttons don't work.

How pathetic that you actually enjoy these posts.

And yet you brag about having Sheldon killfiled because he's vile.
I don't get it. But this is Wayne, so it's not worth trying to
understand.

Don't you mean "The Pit And The Polansky"?

First four 300 lb interns wheel CyberCooze over the JiffyLube Pit and
strap her up on hydraulic jack stands... then choose a Vise Grip
speculum... The Polansky!

It looks like an "s" shaped sponge with a scrubbie side... I buy
those from time to time, but I don't think they are better than
anything else and the concept is not new.
