The following post is from our advertiser, Skittles.

Our friend Billy here has contracted Skittles Pox. Never heard of it? Well, this rare illness is as contagious as it is delicious, each little Skittles pock is a rainbow of fruit flavors. Girls who never looked twice at him in the school hallway go out of their way to get close to him. This young lady even went so far as meeting him underneath the bleachers to discuss his new amazing affliction. Now, it's been a few years since we've been back in the halls of a high school--but everyone knows that meeting underneath the bleachers usually means serious business.

Everyone loves Skittles, so everyone wants to be infected with Skittles Pox. Plus, with all those little colored dots on your face, we're convinced you could probably pull a sick day or two out of the deal. Candy + sitting at home all day watching TV instead of going in to work? Win, win! Take our advice - Contract the rainbow, taste the rainbow.
