Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
...Huh. Well, we do cut it heavily with water. And the salt might neutralize the chemical reaction. We've never had a problem.
...but maybe we should rethink this...(don't want an earthshattering kaboom or anything).
ETA: Oooh, thanks for the link. (Johnny Five voice) Mooore in.put.
Of course my favorite use of white vinegar is dumping it down the drain after pouring in some baking soda. My own sinkbound giant alka-seltzer!
Apparently hydrogen peroxide and vinegar do kill 99% of all germs when used one on top of the other, but she does recommend separate sprayers.

Mom always put peroxide in our ears whenever we got out of the water. bubblebubblebubble
I still do it sometimes when I feel water trapped in my ear.
I really need to stop buying gifts for my cousin's baby, especially considering he isn't going to be born for over two months.
I've been soaking my feet in non-distilled vinegar while I watch "Countdown" for weeks now...not walking makes them scaly. So now when I buy salad dressing I feel turned on and very smart. Just kidding. For the moment...
My dad just sent me a link to an NYT article about Islamic Revolution Barbie. It is an interesting read.
Yeah... I was always freaking out the girls I played barbie with by making mine be detectives and reporters. Because I was like "Playing shopping? Seriously?! Although it was fun to afford everything.
