It used to be my favorite battery. Now only my antique flashlight still uses them.

I think the C Cell is the unsung hero of the alkaline battery world. But is will it become the dodo bird of the alkaline battery world?

You have a favorite battery?

Yes. I actually like $10 dollar bills better than $20 dollar bills but I won't get into that right now.

They don't make D cell dildo's? It's more powerful, you know.

They were getting confused with the diesel dildos. It was ugly. Just ... ugly.

See, that's what I'm talking about. D cells are coarse, vulgar creature for big powerful, rumbling things. C cells are more refined, prettier, a lighter voltage... it's like olive oil compared to LARD.

Hey, I remember an "In Search Of" about the ancient batteries they found in the Iraqi desert. Does anybody remember that?

In Search of...Obsolete Batteries?

I saw a new thing about it on the History Channel (i think) the other day.

There's your weapons of mass destruction, right there.

oh, that really is an anciety battery. I thought you were talking about like just finding crap from the 70s or something.

If you're really desperate for these I heard Sally sells C cells by the seashore.

This particular sumo costume takes 3 cells. If there are no C cells left, the costume will be no more.
