susandennisThe Seahawks are going to play another game in my front yard today. This will be about the 6th game and they have finally figured out that if they put out a bunch of trash cans, maybe, just maybe, the parking lot might not be quite as trashing when the thing is over.
Seattle-ites will go to great lengths to use a trash can and they get orgasmic when they have a bunch to pick from. It can be intimidating to those of us from the east coast and way back who are used to dumping everything into one bin. There used to be this great skit of a Seattle concert - there was a line up to trans cans and the camera panned them one at a time - each was labeled: Trash, Garbage, Paper, White Glass, Green Glass, Styrafoam, Love Letters, etc. on down to the last one which was: Belly Button Lint.
I saw Edmund Hillary in a Plymouth commercial. My Kiwi friends would be pretty upset, I think. They think old Ed is the bees knees not only because he's one of theirs and revered around the world but he represents all things Kiwi and they admire him for being so humble - no head above the poppies and all that. Now, he's sold his soul to the environment choking capitalist pig American automotive industry?? I'm guessing that little advert is not being shown on New Zeland tv.
I washed both my wigs last night mainly just to see what would happen and judge the complexity of the process. The instructions said to swish them in water with a bit of shampoo, then shake out and air dry. That's exactly what it took. I don't know how that could be easier. Wild. I'm considering buying one more. One that is shorter and curlier to round out the collection. We'll see.

Date: 2002-11-17 09:12 am (UTC)I don't have the heads - just cut off 2 liter pop bottle bottoms... But, I did realize this morning that a third wig is going to necessitate a better storage arrangment - my bathroom counter is really only big enough for one. I do have some shelves that could be cleared off and repurposed... hmmmm
My death instructions are for cremation and all of the wig things say "DO NOT get wig near hot oven." So at least I don't have to worry about selecting a final one...

Ever see the skit on SNL with Joe Piscopo as Frank Sinatra with all the little grey topper wigs on styro heads?
Now that I know how easy they are to wash I really want a wig.
me too!
