Plei is me re: zinc. Cold-eeze makes me instantly nauseous.
And OH MY DEAR LORD that girl's eyes are dangerously adorable. There should be a warning label.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yeah, I tried a zinc lozenge once, and could not handle the bad taste. Yuk!
HMOG, yes. I can't even describe how bad the taste is.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think Squeakaboo has a license to kill with those peepers.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Lillian is absolutely adorable.
Jessica! You used to have a vegetarian Cinncinati chili recipe up online somewhere. Do you still have it? My sister's friend is going veg, and asked for the recipe (I made if for my sister a few years ago), and I can't find my printout.

Zinc delivered in a nasal gel, so it goes straight into your blood stream without going through the stomach. I can't handle eating zinc because it makes me super nauseous, but as a nasal gel works great without the ick factor. Aside from the "ick i'm shoving something up my nose" factor.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
From the "Why didn't we have toys like this when we were kids" dept. - EyeClops. You connect it to a TV and it magnifies everything 200 times.
I spy with my big eye something that is... totally disgusting.
My skin! Viewed in all its glory, it can be pretty gory when it's magnified 200x its regular size and broadcast on a plasma TV screen. It's enough to make a grown woman cry.
This eye-popping peek is courtesy of the EyeClops Bionic Eye, a new toy that transforms your TV into a giant communal microscope and provides a very up close and personal look at everyday stuff, like hairy moles, finger nail crud and ear wax. Figs and dog fur to dirt and dust take on alien appearances as they're enlarged by the EyeClops, a simple to use hand-held device put out by Jakks Pacific Inc.

Carpet turned into noodles, hair into twisted rope, tiny dead bugs into hideous creatures and magazine pictures into humungous pixels. Salt became large blocks of ice and eyelashes resembled gigantic insect legs. They examined skin, scars and scabs -- I nixed their booger idea. My husband nixed my dog poop idea.
