I may try some of that stuff, although usually a good dose of over the counter Tylenol sinus medication is enough. The funny thing is that I was not particularly allergic until I quit smoking. It may be accidental, a lot of people become more allergic in their 40's, but it has seemed ironic.......

It's about what to do if you get into various kinds of trouble. The last show showed how to get out of a car that's teetering over a cliff. The same show recommended tea tree oil to get a leech to let go. Vinegar and salt also work, they said. And a fourth thing that I don't remember. I don't supposed tea tree oil works for fish ear...
