Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Penny S. Date: 21 Jul 09 - 03:38 AM Little Hawk, those mineral salts are based on an alum, an aluminium (aluminum) salt, and so very similar in effect to the other sort of deodorant in effect. I've checked every label I've come across, and not one did not have an alum in it. Penny |

Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: GUEST,Jonny Sunshine Date: 21 Jul 09 - 08:54 AM Stickers on fruit may be mildly annoying, but it's a very simple way of labelling something that doesn't need any packaging. I actually once spotted a 6-inch square moulded plastic bubble containing a single small orange, labelled "Citrus Fruit Snack, produce of Spain". |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Little Hawk Date: 21 Jul 09 - 01:48 PM Penny, thanks for the info. I didn't know about that. |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: kendall Date: 22 Jul 09 - 05:36 AM I never rake or otherwise remove leaves. They are best left to become mulch which feeds the lawn. All you need is a mulch mower which chops them into small bits. Here in Scarborough Maine there is an ordinance that says you must signal before changing lanes. |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Rapparee Date: 22 Jul 09 - 06:13 AM Got a State Law that says that out here, Kendall. Folks still save the bulbs in their turn signals. |

Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Don Firth Date: 22 Jul 09 - 09:49 PM I understand that it's still on the books. In San Francisco, it's illegal to shoot rabbits from a cable car. Don Firth |

From: Amergin Date: 23 Jul 09 - 05:31 AM I love my mp3 player....I go on long walks every night...and it helps to keep the boredom at bay....and it is much better than having a stack of cassette tapes and three or four packets of spare batteries in my backpack.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Irene M Date: 23 Jul 09 - 02:24 PM Don, that conjures up an awful lot of bizarre images. How many rabbits are there in SF, anyway? Er............electric bread makers? Chocolate fountains? |

Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Richard Bridge Date: 24 Jul 09 - 02:58 AM Since the name "fascism" is derived from the fasces that used to be carried by the Roman lictors I am doubtful that it would be right to call fascism modern. |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Acorn4 Date: 24 Jul 09 - 03:30 AM I had a Victor Meldrew "I don't believe it" moment when I accidentally ran across this one. Warning, this is not for the squeamish, don't view this if you are about to eat! I Don't Believe It! Somewhere on the planet, there are people stupid enough! |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: Amergin Date: 24 Jul 09 - 03:39 AM Well...Richard, the fasces was a symbol of the Roman REPUBLIC, hardly a dictatorial state. The symbolism of this bundle of birch rods was twisted by the likes of Mussolini, and later the British Union of Fascists. |

Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: RangerSteve Date: 24 Jul 09 - 07:50 AM Smuckers markets a ready-made peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Because spreading PB and J on bread is suck a chore. Oscar Mayer markets a microwave hotdog on a bun. Because micro-waving a hot dog and putting it on a seperate bun is such a chore. I'm surprised they haven't come up with pre-buttered toast - just stick it in the microwave and it's done. Saves you valuable seconds that you would otherwise spend in putting the butter on the bread yourself. |
Subject: RE: BS: Recent innovations we don't need... From: number 6 Date: 24 Jul 09 - 08:02 AM Now that is just damned scarry RangerSteve ... is this where we have come to. Microwaves ... that is something we don't really need. We don't have one. biLL |
