  Re: Questions on Bathing
 
(...) I've known some pretty foul smelling people. Sometimes it was because they didn't scrub and sometimes it was because they lathered themselves in some kind of perfume. In either case, if the odor of a person gets in the way of my thoughts, I (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Questions on Bathing
 
(...) Well that's fine, but the whole point is that it isn't about oneself; it's about those around oneself. Whether or not it's valid, the perception of body odor conveys a real impression of personal hygiene, so if someone's funky it doesn't (...)

That's simple - they're there to keep the cats from falling in as they spring up onto the sink ;-) Dead serious - our cats' water glasses are on the bathroom sink, and once I forgot to put the lid down, and heard a splash.

(...) I wasn't trying to be gentle or otherwise, just stating what I found on the internet about repeat daily showers esp. during winter months.

  Re: Questions on Bathing

(...) Ouch! Yeah, that's a bad error -- but then I rarely spell-check my posts. Thanks for the correction! But, I looked up "bathe" and only the intransitive verb allows for the idea of pouring water over something (the example was a wound), "bathe" (...)

  Poll: Majority Palestinians See Israel's Elimination as Goal
 
At the very least, there should be *civil* war in the West Bank. It makes me laugh to hear those such as Mubarak calling for a Palestinian State *now*, as if that reality alone will change *any* future attitudes or behaviors of the Palestinians (...)

  Re: Questions on Bathing
 
(...) I shower at least twice a day, once in the morning (no shampoo) and once when I come home (with shampoo). The main reason for the afternoon shower is to get the pollens, animal dander, and other allergens out of my hair and off my skin, so as (...)
