12 Goofy Ways to Stay Safe and Healthy in Today's Hazardous World

Stop breathing ozone immediately. You know you can if you try. Do not strike matches near an open nuclear power plant. Do not rub either your scalp or your bosom with the latest scientific breakthrough. Never sit next to strangers in movie theaters, churches, or hot tubs.

Never ride with a teenager wearing a Dukes of Hazzard T-shirt. Do not store feminine hygiene products in a microwave oven. Avoid harmful fats -- particularly those name Gloria. Never go swimming immediately after eating a day-old tuna and mayo sandwich. Avoid death-defying rides at amusement parks -- especially those that have carried 10 million people without an accident.

Avoid wearing tight designer jeans, since the dye used in some designer labels, when sat on by laboratory rats, caused dishpan tail. Avoid medical care by licensed physicians. Even if the treatment causes no harmful side-effects, the bill can prove fatal. Be satisfied with what you have. Stay away from pyramid parties, gurus, Nigerian email offers, and marriage counselors.

The Work-from-home Fashion Primer

Last week, I reported how writers, stay-at-home parents and online marketing geeks had chosen careers as hermits: http://www.thehappyguy.com/hermit.htmlThousands of work-from-home hermits responded, confessing that they were wearing their pajamas while reading my column. Fortunately very few sent me photos. Here are some of the questions they asked:Q: Is it acceptable to wear pajamas at high noon if Nobody sees me, or am I committing a fashion faux-pas.A: It is totally acceptable to wear pajamas at high noon. You can even wear them at low noon. In fact, you can wear them all day long.

The only exception is in England you must not wear pajamas at tea time. Pajamas and tea don't mix. The combination can be lethal. (See the November 2002 report: "Spontaneous combustion among British work-at-home hermits.")Q: How should I handle "casual Fridays" in my workplace?A: I have replaced casual Fridays with "formal Thursdays...

Los Angeles, CA (ContentDesk) September 25 2003--This year's LABETTS placed an increased amount of focus on Urban/Hip-Hop wear. From fashion shows to musical events, this year's expo packed quite a punch and the event drew tens of thousands. "We had to come up with an agenda that would help us face up to larger brands which had an increased expo presence while also planning for our initial debut. When combined, the two goals made strategically planning for the entire event a bit complex," said Williams. KNNX did achieve the initial goal of increased awareness at the expo.

The KNNX street team modeled the line and they were also the facilitators of KNNX's direct marketing agenda.

Scrubbugs, A Medical Clothier, Goes High Fashion - Caters To Trendy HealthCare Professionals

(ContentDesk) December 13, 2005 -- When Gayle and I began to develop the idea of selling medical uniforms, we didnt realize there was any such thing as a stylish scrub.
Yet, thats where its all going, commented Todd Simper, part of the husband/wife team that runs Scrubbugs.com, a Website that sells fashionable scrubs. Peaches and Dickies Uniforms, our main lines, are trend-setters. You might as well be shopping for casual wear- for all the color and variety that now exists, says Gayle Simper. When we originally got into this business, we didnt really know how fashion-conscious and forward moving it was, adds Todd.

The Medical Uniform and Nursing Scrubs business is going through some major changes. Uniforms may never make it to the actual diversity in casual or formal wear, but the look is certainly changing and may be beginning to evolve. Medical Uniforms used to be known as ordinary whites, but the times are definitely changing.We love our Peaches uniforms....
