Was this paid for by tobacco companies? Reminds me of those "Smoking is healthy for babies, yessirree!" ads that used to be common.

 

Oh, just read the article: nicotine may help, not smoking itself. Nice clickbait headline there...

It is the French, so who knows.

    I like studies. I'm doing a study right now where I propose the calories in bacon might cancel out the calories in eggs. So far, preliminary scale data does not support the hypothesis, but I feel like I should continue to gather data points until I reach a level of 95% confidence. I am commited to the research, and I estimate about 80 more breakfasts to complete the data set. I don't expect the study to be peer reviewed, but I might try to convince some of my friends to give it a try.

The nicotine or the bacon and eggs?  Btw, better stock up on that bacon.

I saw that. In Russia they always joke about "British scientists" discovering all kinds of wacky/dubious stuff, so now we can add "French doctors" to that list.

My husband would love to join in on that study. Peer review!

Get the pigs and chickens to start smoking immediately -- that's the ticket!

Sidebar:  I dream of a world in which chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned.

Irish spring liquid or dial or whatever my wife gets with coupons 

Tea Tree Special shampoo, cheapest in gallon size.  Cleans the hair, the pits, the skin, and the parts.  Leaves the parts rather tingly for awhile afterwards, too.

I really don't know why people are so harsh on their skin when so many milder and effective soaps exist out there. 

Technically, one doesn't need soap at all.  H2O is the universal solvent.  Just brush/rinse away those dead skin cells and let nature do the rest!!

Won't make your parts tingle, though...

What is pelmeni?

[TBoneTX 45,319]

The capital city of Carjackistan.

So my neighbors today told me that UV rays are killing the virus in around a minute.  Any truth to this, my VJ news source peeps?
