Have I been in Puritan-ville too long, or is there something kinda lurid about the term "body wash"? Every time I see it, I think, "It's none of my business what you do with that soap."
Asking for a friend.

I always thought it was just a new marketing mechanism for selling perfume. I mean, is there such a thing as an unscented body wash?

Jack, last night in the dark I stubbed my toe. OUCH. I immediately thought of you.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:15pm
Wendy del Formaggio:

Brian, there is, but I think you have to go to health food stores to find it. Also, "unscented" isn't really unscented. They have to put something in there to mask the chemical aroma of the product to make you think there's no scent.

So, my son wants to be a soccer goalie so bad. He got jersey #1. Am I a bad dad because I rather he play any other position? I don't want him to get kicked in the face, for instance.

And apropos of something or other, my wife has started to buy shampoo bars. They work well, and there're no frigging plastic containers to deal with.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 3:23pm
chris:

shampoo bars are a thing? wow. now i know.

hi, Irwin and folks.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:24pm
Wendy del Formaggio:

Yeah, the plastic is kinda bullshit...and ubiquitous. And with the global recyclable plastics market in the toilet, it's probably a good idea to avoid it. (Not that I do, yet...) Thanks for the tip on the shampoo bar.

Can one infer from the playlist theme that Irwin is wearing a deep-orange jumpsuit? There's a certain practicality to that.

I think 'Ice Pick to the Moon' is the name of the album by Ron Pate's Debonnair's (sp?), which I think is pre-Fred Lane. Contains a wild version of Volare.

I vaguely recall that Spooky Tooth LP had a cover of 'I Am The Walrus' by the Fab 4. Don't recall if it was good.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:49pm

It sucked. Worst Beatles cover ever. Rest of the album was terrific.
Avatar 4:49pm
Fredericks:

I thought Spooky Tooth was the Guess Who.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:50pm
Irwin:

I exaggerate. Not the worst Beatles cover ever. Worse would be any cover of "Give Peace a Chance."

Irwin: ha! Rest of the album terrific, huh.

"soap" is saponified oil. i thought the term "body wash", though now a marketing ploy, came about with soapless washing liquids.

4th Spookies LP: "The Last Puff." It's great if you skip the "Walrus" misstep.

my name was misspelled for a photo credit for the author of a book and they stuck a tiny piece of paper in there with the correct name -as if anyone will keep track of that. the least they could've done would be to make it a useful bookmark.
