Wait, so the girls would use this invention to flatten out the back of their hair? What did the end result (hairstyle) look like after?

They wore the pad invention to bed at night. Only the girls with really short hair styles that had flat smooth hair cut close to the back of their heads used that invention and it worked to keep the hair flat and smooth when they woke up. The invention worked! :victory: :mrgreen: It is like the creation of pieces of brown paper bags that were twisted were used as rollers or curlers before commercial curlers were sold. Or the use of flat beer that a comb was dipped into, was used as a setting lotion before you rolled your hair. The smell eventually wore off. :hehe: Thank goodness for the invention of commercial hair styling products. :woot: :hehe:

:rofl: :rofl: Sorry but I'm saving my handcuffs for more useful, creative things like cuffing Nishikido-kun to the bed. :naughty:

Wow Enna...very interesting - about girls using a pad to keep their hair flat and smooth while sleeping. Who would have guessed that the simple pad could be so useful in more ways than one. Thanks for sharing that. :victory:

The word "set" has more definitions than any other word in the English language.

Americans are burning more gasoline each year because their obesity is weighing down their vehicles (this is also happening on airplanes). About $2.2 billion more is spent on gasoline each year.

To add to the weird and (sometimes) wonderful facts here, here's mine:

In Ancient Peru, when a woman found an 'ugly' potato, it was the custom for her to push it into the face of the nearest man.




*Wonder how the man felt having a potato suddenly thrust into his face?*

Yea, but it's also gonna be considered a "dwarf planet".

yup, i think it was a good idea for the IAU to attempt to settle the question of defining a planet (although i suspect the current definition may still cause trouble later on for other planet-like rocks in other places). if they had left it, ppl who liked the original nine-planet system would be annoyed with the addition of so many other 'planets' while the scientific community (that usually doesnt have sentimental attachments to these types of things) would be annoyed at the controversy over lumps of rock bigger than Pluto not count as planets.

Yup, exactly. It seems someone went ahead and actually created a criteria. This will help define what an actual planet is at all. Having definite categories with certain guidelines is always a good idea when you're talking about something so big.

Of course, I'm lost in Zodiac now. Scorpios are ruled by Mars, but mostly my Pluto. I guess I'm a lost soul now. :beaten:
