    I do mean that stuff...

    My nurse friend says that they've found it to be the gentlest thing for cleaning road rash.

    I keep hoping I find someone that has road rash to test it on before I get the chance to test it on myself.

    Sorry, but I will NOT be your guinea pig. And I'm stayin' out of your friend's hospital.

    And I'm not Greek, so no Windex, either.

    Random babblings and some stuff to look at.

    ha. She works at a hospital in Denver, so I'm thinking you'll be okay unless you're going to be biking in Colorado anytime soon.


    When I was little, I had a black guinea pig and at some point I thought wouldn't it be cute if I took the guinea pig to meet the german shepard we had... stuck the guinea pig up to the fence and everything went well until the german shepard tried to eat it... he just ended up with a mouthful of fur and I had a black guinea pig with a bald spot.

    I figured my parents would get mad, so I got a black marker and colored the guinea pig in...

    Apparently I shoulda used spray n wash first, then used the black marker.

    And then some Windex for polish. Did your parents notice?

    In first aid class I was taught to use saline solution (contact lens stuff) for road rash.
