You may change your licking habits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
I'll use my tongue only in very special places.
Do you lick the envelope?
If you lick your envelopes...You won't anymore!!!!
A woman was working in a post office in California. One day she licked the
envelopes and postage stamps instead of using a sponge. That very day the
lady cut her tongue on the envelope. A week later, she noticed an abnormal
swelling of her tongue. She went to the doctor, and they found nothing
wrong. Her tongue was not sore or anything. A couple of days later, her
tongue started to swell more, and it began to get really sore, so sore, that
she could not eat. She went back to
the hospital, and demanded something be done. The doctor took an x-ray of her
tongue,and noticed a lump. He prepared her for minor surgery. When the
doctor cut her tongue open, a live roach crawled out. There were roach eggs
on the seal of the envelope. The egg was able to hatch inside of her tongue,
because of her saliva. It was warm and moist...
This is a true story reported on CNN

licked an envelope for years.
>>From another: I used to work for a print shop (32 years ago) and we were
told NEVER to lick the envelopes. I never understood why until I had to go
into storage and pull out 2500 envelops that were already printed for a
customer who was doing a mailing and saw several squads of roaches roaming
around inside a couple of boxes with eggs everywhere. They eat the glue on
the envelopes. I think print shops have a harder time
controlling roaches than a restaurant. I always buy the self sealing type.
Or if need be I use a glue stick to seal one that has the type of glue that
needs to be wet to stick.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON !!!!
