I've heard it's a rough life living on the lam.

Yaa-aaa-aaaaah, it is.

And if he'd stay away from the lambs he wouldn't have to move so much [/groucho impression]

"I don't know but I've been told it's hard to run with the weight of gold.
On the other hand, I've heard it said it's just as hard with the weight of lead...

One way or another this darkness has got to give."


It would seem I am knowledgeable, if not expert

Farmer Wilson walks over to Farmer Jones' place and says
"Jones, I got me a problem and I gotta to go to court - I need a lawyer, do you know any?" Farmer Jones replies, "yeah, I know a couple of those guys. One is a hell of a trial lawyer, great guy but expensive as hell; the other, not so great, but the guy sure knows how to pick a jury and he's a lot cheaper." Wilson thanks his buddy and moves on thinking to himself, well I don't have a lot of money so I guess I know what I have to do.


Wilson's day in court finally comes and the first witness called to the stand is his neighbor Mrs. Smith. Mrs. Smith is sworn in and the prosecuter asks her, "Mrs. Smith, would you please tell the court what you saw on the day in question. "Why yes I can", she says, "I was doing my dishes, looking out my window over the sink when I saw Farmer Wilson come out from behind his barn and grab one of his goats". Yes mam, and then what did you see? "Well after he grabbed that goat he proceeded to drop his pants and fornicate with that there goat!" Is that all mam? "Well no, after it seemed like he had his way with that goat, the goat turned around and proceeded to lick him clean!"


It was at this point of the testimony that one man on the jury turns to another man on the jury and says "you know, a good goat will do that"..

I'd say go for it, particularly if you locate a good shop assistant who will be able to pick out suitable pieces for you.

A good friend of mine's mother-in-law had a high-end maternity label for many years a while ago. A lot of the clothing was beautiful and I bought quite a few pieces which worked irrespective of whether a person was pregnant or not. I still have a skirt and a coat which gets compliments often, so obviously no-one notices and I have never been asked ever if I'm pregnant.

I'll see if I can find a pic or two. You won't be able to tell.

Brits call 'em verrucas. That's why the name is so funny in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. My pediatrician is married to a Brit, so never corrected/edumacated me, and it wasn't until one of Hebe's got so bad it needed freezing off and I had to make an appointment with the receptionist that I learned that Americans don't call them that.

Oh verrucas! Yeah. I have one on each foot, right in the centre of the front pad of the foot. Been there for years. Can't bear the idea of a chiropadist mauling with my feet so I use the plasters.

So is that the deal, the salicylic acid bandaids aren't really enough to kill it and they keep coming back in the same spot until they've been professionally frozen off? I have several that rotate so I haven't really noticed if they're coming back in the exact same spots or not. It's my own damn fault for going barefoot everywhere for years on end.

If it doesn't bother you, there's no need to get it frozen off, but if it's painful and won't go away, then you should. Dani, it no longer hurts like it used to when we were kids, they don't hack at them any more. A quick blast of freeze spray and they leave the dead skin to grow out in it's own time like a scab. At least that was Hebe's experience. You can even buy the freezy spray over the counter here if you're brave enough.

I got one and my doctor said adults don't usually get them because you eventually become immune, but when you have young children and take them swimming/to other places where barefoot is de rigeur, then your body gets assaulted by it and you sometimes get a relapse. I haven't had one for at least 5/6 years, now.

I had plantar warts a few years ago. Hurt like a mother.

I never go barefoot anymore. If it's farther that the bedroom to the bathroom, I put on flip-flops at least.

Verruca? That sounds like an oddball houseplant.

Reminds me of salt

I want a bean feast.

I had one in the same spot and it finally went away after I was running on a stony beach and landed on a sharp pointy rock directly in the center of the wart. It was one of the most painful things I've ever felt. Two days later the wart just fell out and never returned. I highly recommend running barefoot on stony beaches as an effective treatment modality.

This thread has become almost as gross as the Period Cup thread.
