    Never heard of it. Link for those who, like me, need it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BC_Powder and http://www.bcpowder.com/ Sounds like Excedrin, aspirin and caffeine. Should work just fine though personally I avoid aspirin. Hard to pinpoint dates, when some folk remedies have been...

    Do Ladies notice a Man's shoes?

    Yeah that :D Clean and in good condition. Style depends on the rest of the outfit and the guy. No dress socks with Nikes, no sweat socks with dress shoes of course. Lizzie, the tourists wearing athletic/court shoes to hold down the sidewalk can be summed up with one word: EGO I used to...

    Haven't gotten that far yet but speaking of war... what about the traumas and horrors the troops have to suffer? Do the shrinks understand what the troops have been through? Correct me if I'm wrong but suicide rates of troops returning from war are pretty high, so it seems that the happy...

    Just watched part 1 and wow it's scary. I'm not impressed by Scientology either but it's well documented that these early asylums were big shops of horrors. So it's not exactly a skewed perspective they're presenting. I agree completely that it's so bad now that merely being human is...

    Back to abandoned medical practices, ice baths for high fevers. Obsolete form of patient torture now. When I was 5 turning 6 I was in and out of the hospital and I got stuck in tubs full of ice cubes every day and had to stay there until my lips turned blue. And the nurse wondered why I ran...

    I have to admit I'm much more interested in vitamins, healthy diet (not that I'm perfect on that I'm a food snob after all), and exercise. Pharmaceuticals scare me, just watch all the lawsuit commercials on tv. A long time ago during a difficult time, I started seeing a counselor who promptly...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    it smells to me as if they took a bowl of wax fruit and tried to make it smell like fruit. kinda weird really but not intolerable. for cheap lipstick it's not bad and it will do in a pinch speaking of the Rockalily stuff, I'd love to try the Roulette red but it's not in the budget right...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    Found a cheap one recently, NYC in Retro Red. It's a little greasy but the color is nice and it seems to stay well, amazingly enough. I do use lipliner though that helps keep it contained. At least it's not drying
