| I thought it was a great list to, but I don't think I'd rub WD-40 on myself. Besides the fact that the stuff stinks to high heaven I'm thinking that having all those chemicals on your skin would be a bad idea. Betty

| You know-- WD40 reminds me a lot of Turpentine. And folks used to drink that for all types of ailments. *This comment is in no way an inducement for any reader to indulge in swigs of either Turpentine or WD40. Do not try this at home. Besides, the carb content of either substance is unclear at this time. Last edited by GeeGee; 07-20-2005 at 05:48 PM. Reason: missed a sentence |
