New York- A man who lives on the Bowery on Manhattan’s lower east side and answers to the name Indiana Jones was awarded Best Smelling Homeless Person of 2008 yesterday by the natural bath products company, Tom’s of Maine.
Mr. Jones’ initially responded by pulling a knife on the company’s spokesman, D.J. Criggens. Before any actual harm had come to the Tom’s of Maine employee, Mr. Jones accepted the award.
“Stink, stink, the government!” he said.
Criggens offered the decrepit man a selection of deodorants as well as gift certificate for Tom’s of Maine products, which Mr. Jones proceeded to eat. When the homeless man asked Criggens for money or food, the spokesman gave a blunt no, and walked away from the cardboard home.
The company that brings you all natural toothpastes and organic deodorants created the award as a way to promote natural products around the country. In 2009, the multi-billion dollar company plans to donate cases of antiplaque floss to AIDS victims in Kenya.
