Ludwig True Love

I've been sitting here at home for the past several hours trying to figure out what in my apartment has started to rot or decay. I thought I had a rancid fruit or vegetable hiding somewhere. I was just about to give up when I went to scratch my eye and got a good whiff of my left forearm. I...

I'm headed to Las Vegas for an extended weekend and I have tickets to a meet and greet event with Conan O'Brien. Standing next to someone as tall, thin and pale as Conan, there is definite potential for me to end up looking like an unidentifiable chubby goth midget.So clothing and makeup...

I remember in past years that there was a kind of round robin package exchange that happened on here starting this time of year: there was a list, you put in XX$ of stuff, took out the same amount, and sent the package on to the next person. Are there plans to do this again this year? MODS...

Pictures were taken outdoors on an overcast day, with no flash. No real attempt made at blending, so they could easily be made to look more subtle or darker

Does New Zealand have a B2M program? Or do I have to hold on to my empties until the next time I visit the US?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good, higher than SPF15 sunscreen? I would wear it on my face, neck, and hands. I normally wouldn't care, but I have Sjogren's Syndrome(it's related to lupus), and am becoming photosensitive in my old age. This means that I am prone to burning, even...

Is this on the chopping block or not? Someone who was posting on MUA earlier today seems to think that it is. If it's being d/c'd, I need to order a replacement with my Flashtronic purchase
