hair, marketing, and smoke
Today I learned that you can pick your new, easier-to-dry (and thus less likely to lead to shampoo sensitivities) hairstyle online, but since you still can't get it online, it doesn't really matter. What matters is forming a deeper and longer-lasting bond with your hairdrier.
In entertainment news, I see why Axe sent Matthew McConaughey a year's supply of their product - so they could say they'd done it. But it's really insulting to send a bunch of chemicals to somebody who has said that he doesn't want to smell like marketers want him to, so what's he going to do? Give it away so other people can smell like marketers want them to, or send the whole load to the landfill and destroy the dreams of countless 13-year-olds who would love to have some but freely admit that walking through a cloud of it gives you a headache?
In smoke news, as I predicted, since they were still burning the side of the mountain today, we got a yard full of smoke down here. Actually, it's not just here - people are reporting smoke all the way on the west side of town and to the south, toward Nogales. For future reference, this kind of event fills up the filters in the house pressurizer pretty quickly, so it's better to turn the pressurizer off before you screw up all its filters.
So we're all going to get deep vein thrombosis and die, but,

said Deputy Santa Catalina District Ranger Sherry Tune, “Should the smoke be heavier than what we planned for, we apologize for any inconvenience that might bring.”In yet more smoke-related news, this blog saw a Fox News segment about new electronic, smokeless cigarettes (it's online somewhere), but since they're not available in the US yet, the prop department had to fake part of it. Key quote: "That looks like a suppository you're holding."

I know you didn't react well to their chocolate lipbalm, but 17th Century Suds makes a shampoo whose only ingredients are "Olive oil, crystal clear well water, jojoba oil, water, sodium hydroxide". It's a bit weird to to shampoo with because it's not filled with surfactants, but it makes my hair dries really fast.
'Scuse me, I'll be off ordering shampoo on the internets.
