Yes on microdermabrasion! Go to a quality salon; after cleansing your skin, the technician will will sweep the wand over your entire face twice. While it doesn't hurt, your face will be very slightly pink for about 30 minutes. After that, your skin will look and feel refreshed. Your technician will recommend that you stay out of the sun, but you knew that already. Most salons sell packages of 6 sessions; you might consider buying a single session to see if you like it.

our dermo is a bit of a nut. She gave my wife a peel without really telling her. wife thought she was just getting treatment for a mole. She gets them monthly now. it burns a bit, but after 2 minutes it's removed. overall no big deal, but she also isn't sure it makes any difference.

Get some Aveeno facial scrub. Dermabrasion will have you looking like a burn victim. You're beautiful as you are. I've hacked into Not Bob's webcam feed from your place, so I know whereof I speak.

Amen. Or a toddler who like the Wiggles. Or Barney. Let them play it loud, like when they first get up on the weekend.

The problem with these methods are they only really work when you are around, and if the goal is to really drive your neighbor bonkers, you want to annoy them at a point when you're not available to listen to their whiney little complaints.

Dogs. Multiple yappy little dogs.

You're assuming I would actually listen to their whiny little complaints and not set the hounds on them.

Ten years

I think we're coming up on a 10 year anniversary. I just paid to renew the domain, and I went back to check. I think the site opened in late March 2003, after some wandering around in the desert after findlaw blew up.

I renewed the domain for another three years.

just a thought for next time, Wonk could probably get an AARP discount if we shift to his name.

Fat guy dilemma

Eating an ice cream cone. Can't get the paper off the bottom of the cone. Eat the bottom with the paper or throw away the last bite?

My grandmother claimed to have once found a dead fly in the bottom of the cone. FWIW.
