American women spend over 5 billion every year on make-up alone.
No point to that comment other than its something to think about.
Hey, you know how Americans are always going to Mexico to get cheaper prescription drugs? My Biology Professor was telling us that Mexico is selling encapsuled tapeworms as a diet aid and that there have been numerous cases of infestation because of both American and Mexican women buying them in spite of the picture of the tapeworm on the label! She showed us some newspaper articles from cases that were local enough to get attention in San Antonio while she stressed the fact that tapeworms will not make you skinny!
I had to laugh at that one, being one who remains skinny no matter what, I can't tell you how many times in my life I've heard "Oh my God, you must have a tapeworm!" when people see or are told how much I can eat and not put on a pound.
