We're not talking high colonic irrigation here, just thorougly cleaning out the nose and sinuses. I believe your sister uses them as well.</p>Treppenwitz commented on 'The only downside I've found (so far) to scootering to work'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01347fe90398970c2010-04-16T05:38:39Z2010-04-16T05:38:39ZTreppenwitzElisson...

<p>Barzilai ... oh...oh... I just Googled that. And now I can't stop dry heaving! :-(</p>
<p>Yossi... But he was in the left turn lane! :-)</p>
<p>chairwoman... you must have been close. That's the kind of thing we don't even share with spouses.</p>
<p>Noa... or the men shaving.</p>
<p>cyberdov... This is such a small country and everyone knows one another. That assumption doesn't work here.</p>
<p>At The Back of the Hill... If I was in the Bay area he would have explained to me that they were 'free range, organic, artisanal boogers, so would I like to buy a couple of grams. :-)</p>
<p>Yaron... probably has a scrap book.</p>

Was traveling on a train to Brooklyn, I think, and there was a woman, I am quite sure mentally ill, who was picking her nose wildly and flinging the, um, output, all over her seat. Wiping, swiping, flicking. Clearly everyone else was slowly moving away from her. She got off at a stop, and obviously no one went near her now-empty seat. At the next stop, the doors opened, and another woman got one. In a matter of seconds I saw her eyes sweep the full car looking for a place to rest her weary feet. Her eyebrows popped up in pleasure at the surprisingly empty seat and she quickly made sure to beat out all the other contenders and whipped herself into that empty seat. This being New York, no one said a word. However, be warned. If there's an empty seat on a full train, there may be a good reason for that!</p>Yaron commented on 'The only downside I've found (so far) to scootering to work'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef0133ecb69e1c970b2010-04-15T21:03:38Z2010-04-15T21:03:38ZYaronI wonder what he does in the privacy of his home.

<p>We're far too busy talking on our cellphones while juggling the laptop and swilling Starbucks. If we actually have a fourth hand, it holds the electric shaver or the mascara brush.</p>
<p>There is NO place in a busy schedule for your nose. That's what vacations are for.</p>cyberdov commented on 'The only downside I've found (so far) to scootering to work'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef0133ecb67784970b2010-04-15T20:28:29Z2010-04-15T20:28:29Zcyberdovhttp://cyberdov.commaybe it's just that if you dont know each other, he doesnt care if you see him.<p>maybe it's just that if you dont know each other, he doesnt care if you see him. </p>Noa commented on 'The only downside I've found (so far) to scootering to work'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01347fe5efa2970c2010-04-15T18:44:43Z2010-04-15T18:44:43ZNoaHIlarious post!

<p>Chairwoman, did you also notice the chicky babes applying eyeshadow at red lights too?

<p>Long, long ago, when I was a mere snippet driving around London in my Triumph Spitfire, I started to notice that at every red light, there was a guy next to me excavating a nostril.</p>
<p>After about a week of this I mentioned it at work and was greeted with disbelief by my colleagues. A couple of days later, however, my boss called me into my office, "You know that nose picking thing" he said confidentially, "Well I was at a red light this morning, and thought I'd take a look. Well, there was nobody picking their nose" he said "Until I realised, that the nose picker was me!"</p>Yossi commented on 'The only downside I've found (so far) to scootering to work'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef0133ecb5a6aa970b2010-04-15T17:26:55Z2010-04-15T17:26:55ZYossiThat's just the way he applies his turn signal.<p>That's just the way he applies his turn signal.</p>Barzilai commented on 'The only downside I've found (so far) to scootering to work'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01347fe56ab7970c2010-04-15T16:57:46Z2010-04-15T16:57:46ZBarzilaihttp://www.havolim.blogspot.comPrint out some ads for Neti Pots, and next time, just toss one into the window of the car.

If the window is up, do the universal cranking motion, which, I think, still works in the motorized window era. If you're brave, hand them out personally at work or in the supermarket.</p>

Inserting your finger deeply enough into your nostril converts your car's windows into one-way glass. You can see out, but the guys on the outside can't see in.
