U.S. inventors John Packes and Ramon Peralta have come up a product line called Tasty Golf Tees in various flavors including mint, cherry, strawberry, and grape. "It will knock out the foulest of cigar, beer breath within five seconds," Packes of Norwalk, Connecticut, told Reuters on Tuesday. Packes said they came up with the idea while walking along the fairway one day and noticing that many golfers popped a tee in their mouth as they headed to the next hole or waited to tee up. Tasty Golf Tees, which cost about 25 cents each, are made from uncoated wood, which is sanitized and flavored. They look and play like regular wooden golf tees. <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20061115/od_nm/life_golf_dc" target="_blank">http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/200 61115/od_nm/life_golf_dc</a> ;-)

Some are EXTREMELY toxic) <-- or so I've heard it said. But it's also a great idea. I see golfers all the time put their tee in their mouth. No one I knonw has hsd a problem.

My 5 yr old boy, my 3 yr old boy, my 2 yr old boy and yes.....my 6 month old boy,,,all take a bath nightly with me in my tub. I have to hand the little baby out to my wife, so that I can bathe the others. It's a great time! But we are all clean. The family bath usually takes an hour or so. 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Sometimes I take another shower in the morning just to wake up. Dry skin is somewhat an issue at our house. I keep hand sanitizer my the BAR soap by the sink. You guys can use softsoap if you want. It doesn't clean well. The bar soap for us and if it's just a quick snack I will quickly dole out at least hand sanitizer to the kids before they eat anything. I regularly spray the knobs and light switches and bannisters with Clorox Santizer. Oh we are if anything, clean.
