You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Dana, it's listed (along with Cockapoo, which we had at various times when I was a kid) among the "Poodle Hybrids."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ah, I see. I can't handle anything beyond a simple alphabetized list when I'm on Sufaded...Sudef...Sudafed.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I don't want to own anything that has "poo" at the end of its name.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Cockapoos are awesome!

Man, I don't want to do the research I'm supposed to be doing right now. Bleh.

Also, I brilliantly just stole a better chair from an empty office, and I think it is already making my work life better.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Can I ask a cosmetic question here?

Has anyone here ever had luck with finding a chapstick/lipstick/whatever that actually helped chapped lips? Not just momentarily, but actually helped them to heal? I need a good chapstick, pronto!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I swear by Carmex, Burrell.

Also good for chapped baby noses!

I've had good luck with most of the non-petroleum ones. I think I'm using the Whole Foods house brand one now. That said, they just protect them until they're actually healed.

I've found plain old vaseline to be as effective as anything else. Which is why my nose is very shiny right now.

Compassionately intolerant

I use the Blistex that comes in the little blue pot like Carmex.

I find it hugely healing and am quite addictive. Can't go to sleep without it.

I have the sort of lips that peel and crack with the introduction of nearly any foreign substance. This is the only product that doesn't make my lips burn.
