This last Christmas morning DonDiego and one of his nephews each received an excellent gift under the tree - a Whoopee Cushion.
DonDiego was puzzled by the design as there did not seem a proper orifice through which to inflate the device preparatory to subsequent surreptitious use. In trying to stretch the opening, it tore; the "rubber" was simply weak, . . . and inadequate for the job. Poor old DonDiego had broken his Christmas present before even one use.
Meanwhile DonDiego's nephew somehow managed to inflate his "cushion". He inserted it beneath a couch cushion and prepared himself for the inevitable frivolity which would ensue when someone sat on it. Shortly thereafter his brother did, indeed, sit on the cushion, . . . and nothing happened! Nothing! Subsequent investigation revealed that the Whoopee Cushion had silently burst during its first deployment, . . . and was ruined.
So, DonDiego warns all readers: DO NOT BUY CHEAP "WHOOPIE CUSHIONS" such as those imported from China. They do not work. And failure demoralizes the user. Perhaps this is the goal of the clever Chinamen, . . . to so demoralize citizens of the United States that they will eventually welcome their Oriental conquerors.
