An ounce of pickled ginger can temporarily raise your IQ by as many as 10 points. A really good thing for us blonds
Time for a couple of blonde jokes...

A beautiful, well dressed blonde boards a flight from London to New York and sits in the first class cabin reading a glossy magazine while awaiting take-off.

The flight attendant approaches to ensure that everything she requires for her journey will be catered for and checks her ticket. "I'm sorry," said the flight attendant, "you are booked into economy class and I must ask you to move down the plane."

"I am blonde, I am beautiful and I am going to New York to become a model," she replied.

The senior flight attendant then tackled her and asked her to move.

"I am blonde, I am beautiful and I am going to New York to become a model," she replied once more.

Finally the captian walked up to her with a smile upon his face and whispered a few words in her ear. Immediately she left her seat and moved down the plane to economy class.

Impressed by this the flight attendant turned and asked the captain what he had said to her.

"I told her the first class cabin didn't land at New York."


:D :)

A blonde girl is lying unconcious and the paramedics arrive to attend to her. He manages to revive her and explains what happened. "You fainted and I just need to check a few things to make sure you are not paralysed."

The blonde girl nods her reply as she realises the situation, and the paramadic asks; "How many fingers do I have up?" The girl begins to panic immediately, crying... "Oh my God! My pussy is paralysed!"

Some more facts on the :kiss:

Kissing helps reduce tooth decay because the extra saliva helps clean out your mouth.

Some theorize that when you kiss a person with the same hair color as yourself, the result is a more passionate kiss.

You use only two muscles on your face when you give a peck kiss but you use all of your facial muscles and burn more calories during a passionate kiss.

Our brains have special neurons that help us find each others lips in the dark :D

:kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

OK, now you got me going ;)
I'm a bi-redhead, the thought of kissing another redhead of either sex does not turn me on at all. To me, any other hair colour is exotic and therefore erotic, perhaps I'm strange?

And as for the special neurons... absolutely yes! I found her lips beneath the dark enclosure of the bedsheets with no problem ;)

Quite possibly, but then again, I'm just repeating the facts!

Maybe we should take a poll to find out? :D
 
Natural Hair Colors
A person's genes determine the hair/skin/eye color since before his or her birth. The determinants for hair color are known as melanocytes. These cells form the natural hair colors, or pigments and distinguish between black, brown, and red. Depending on the percentage of each pigment, the person has blonde, brown, red or black hair. As the melanocytes decay during a lifetime, the hair becomes a dull gray and later on it turns into a whitish color.

And what happens when a person's natural hair colour changes during the year? And is a combination of the afore mentioned colours? :rolleyes:

My hair bleaches in the sun, I go strawberry blonde, then, when my sunburned skin peels off I'm back to my normal self again :)

Hair covers the whole body, with the exception of soles of feet, palms of hands, mucous membranes, and lips.

Hair is the fastest growing tissue in the body, second only to bone marrow.
35 meters of hair fibre is produced every day on the average adult scalp.

God help your hairy lips :)

Casts aside the website I found and goes in search of another ;) :cattail:
 
Feb. 22, 2007 -- Drinking spearmint tea may spur an hormonal shift that helps women curb unwanted hair (hirsutism), a Turkish study shows.

The researchers asked the women to drink spearmint tea twice a day for five days. The tea was brewed by pouring boiling water over a heaping teaspoon of dried spearmint leaves.

Blood tests showed that the women's levels of androgens -- hormones that include testosterone -- dipped after drinking the spearmint tea for the five days.

It's normal for women to have androgens, but having high androgen levels and hair follicles that are sensitive to androgen can lead to hirsutism.

The hormonal shift the women experienced after drinking spearmint tea might reduce hirsutism, the researchers say.

However that's not certain, since the study lasted only five days and didn't include any before-and-after measurements of the women's excess hair.

What a load of Bollocks! LOL :)

So if I drink loads of spearmint tea, I no longer have to wax my legs? :D
 
Hmm.... nah. I'll stick to searing hot wax. :rolleyes:
Ouch!
Sugaring is similar to waxing but instead of using wax a sugar mixture is used. The sugar mixture is made up of sugar, lemon juice and water heated together to form a paste. Like waxing, a thin layer of sugar paste is applied to the skin and a cotton strip placed on top. The strip is then pulled back sharply against the direction of the hair growth. Sugaring is a suitable alternative to waxing for people sensitive to wax.

And if it doesn't work it can be licked off ;) :cool:
 
The Tennessee Fainting Goat is a breed of goat - the goats sometimes look like they are fainting!

These goats don't actually "faint" and become unconscious, they just stiffen and sometimes fall over when they are unexpectedly startled. Tennessee Fainting Goats have a genetic condition called myotonia that causes their muscles to stiffen when they are startled or get excited. This stiffening often causes them to lose their balance and fall over. They are not having a seizure and it doesn't hurt them. They are fully conscious and once they relax, (10-15 seconds), they get up and are on their way.
