Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

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
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.
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.

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.

I hope you feel better, Jilli.
Many thanks for the well wishes for Sass. She's good and we'll get a chance to personally thank a bunch of people in the dog park tonight who helped in the search.

Punishingly Intricate
I'm so glad Sass was found and safe! Frank used to wander off a lot the first year or so I had him. And he wouldn't respond to calls. We used to call him The Great Ignoro.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Peracetic acid sent me off on an entertaining Google. Peracetic acid a pretty powerful disinfectant that kills bacteria and viruses and is used in hospitals and the food industry. One advantage is has is that it degrades to acetic acid and peroxide, so there's no toxic residue. It's fairly nasty at high concentrations because it's corrosive and explodes when heated, but mixing household white vinegar (5% acetic acid) and 3% drugstore peroxide hardly going to yield a high concentration. What's interesting is that one main disinfectant types recommended against anthrax consists of hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid and peracetic acid, i.e., hydrogen peroxide mixed with vinegar.
