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.

Then again, if you've been gargling with it for years and don't have an ulcerated throat...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yeah, the aeration might be part of the problem, though she does say "never combine in the same container."

Kids, listen to the person paid to advise, okay? My results are far from empirical.

And you can easily combine salt (soda) and peroxide; toothpastes and commercial mouthwashes do so. Apparently it's just vinegar and peroxide that don't play well with each other.

My kids swimming coach recommended 2 drops rubbing alcohol and 1 drop vinegar in each ear after each pool session to prevent swimmer's ear. Vinegar does have myriad usefulness.

The codeine I took for my coughing last night didn't work very well. AND I had insomnia. I am on my third day of calling in sick. Please send chicken soup and laudanum.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

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.

Compassionately intolerant

Oh my! Sparky, I'm having the vapors on your behalf. Bartleby has ever only been missing for 5 minutes (probably more like 45 seconds in non-me-freaking time) and I know how horrible THAT felt.

Gracious, I'm glad she's okay.
