Have a severe case of poison oak. Miserable stuff. thought I knew where all of it in the yard was located, don't know where I got into it. Also thought I had built up a resistance to it as all if had on several years was light cases.

Eyes are almost swollen shut. Now you cant tell if i'm taking a nap or not. Called the Dr for a steroid pack.

as time goes along and you get older yer resistance that you once had grows weaker also....

depending on where its at on yer person....I've used gasoline on a rag dabbed on the rash and duct tape to cover it so I would itch and spread the rash....

I bet she wasn't......but we all had to start somewhere and it should be a fun project together. I need to order some Sonax wheel cleaner to finish my wheels because what I normally use didn't get them 100% clean and I washed the wheels twice.

For car cleaning stuff? You guys would flip if you seen my truck. I've only washed it like once since buying it. I work in really nasty crap. No chance in haities of keeping it clean.

I used to work at a dealership back when I was in high school...my job was to prep new vehicles that came off off the transport and clean up cars taken in on trade....having a clean ride has just stuck with me till this day....

I'd rather have people give me compliments on how clean my ride is then to have them to think what a pig pen...
