Daily Showering Tip (4/27/05)...

Boogers. Mucus. Phlegm. Green stuff. Who likes 'em? Not me. Well, occasionally I'll indulge myself, but that's beside the point. The point is that when you wake up in the morning, you've usually accumulated one or all of these things in your system, and they need to be cleared out. Green phlegm should be cleared from the chest, and boogers from the nose. And what better place to do that than in the shower? Just hack and blow to your heart's content. The water carries everything down the drain and out of sight. But beware of the errant booger. I've noticed a few healthy green globules that have probably been on my shower wall for close to a month. These have become hard like cement. Brushes, scrapers, soaps and solvents do nothing to remove them. Unfortunately, errant cement boogers need to be gnawed off.
