I thought that was a myth?
Maybe. My friends (who are professional singers) avoid dairy before singing for this reason - said it fucks up your voice & throat. But I guess they could be just repeating an old wives' tale.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, I was told to avoid dairy before shows too.

Yeah I think that it's repeated a lot but not actually true. Here from a completely unreliable source:
Although a website called milksucks.com claims that it is true!

BWAH!!
I love how he just keeps doing his thing and then about ten seconds in, looks around like, "Bzuh?"

Question: when someone comes to clean your house, do you tip him or her? I'm not sure if it will be the owner of the business or not. (it's an independent small local company thing)
I have a general rule -- if you do an extraordinary job, you get a tip. Exceptions to this rule (in the sense that an exception means always tipping) are waitstaff and taxis. I think that tipping is a reward for going above and beyond. Just doing your job doesn't get you a tip, IMNSHO.
When I had a housekeeper (pauses to savor the constant cleanliness that has been absent in the new place), I gave her a holiday tip or tipped if I'd forgotten to leave the top lock unlocked and she had to come back, etc.

What about hairstylists?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Or massage therapists?
