    OT: New Beetle

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Sadly, I do not have a Beetle of my own. I love them though and rent them whenever I can.
    Ah. It's probably for the best. Most of them are plagued with "features" only a mechanic could love. I love mine a lot, but I also have a place to work on it, and lots of tools, and a husband who doesn't mind working on it, as long as I'm there.

    Citrus oil on skin

    I think that citrus oils can be irritating to the skin, and so a person should be careful using them. Having said that, I confess that I often add Grapefruit essential oil to my n\bathwater, and have had no problems.

    The olive oil is safest. And I use Simple Green aroud the house, but I still don't trust it, I would like to see an ingredient list.

    Thanks for the olive oil tip. I *wowed* my family when my 10 year old came in with grease on his leg. He had been moving around the bike stable for my hubby, and got grease on his leg.

    I said, "check this out" and proceeded to wipe away the grease with a little olive oil on a paper towel. Better than baby wipes (which we use when we are out on the bikes).
    Whoever said last man standing wins never asked a girl to play!
