The slimy secret of eternal youth: Japanese salon launches anti-ageing beauty treatment that involves letting live SNAILS crawl across your face
They have long been regarded as a nuisance in the garden but it seems that snails could be more friend than foe when it comes to anti-ageing.
A revolutionary new facial that involves allowing live snails to slither across the complexion has been hailed the next big thing in beauty thanks to the glow-boosting properties of snail mucus.

I have a sneaking suspicion this treatment will take off especially well in France. They’ve never been put off by snails and not particularly selective about what goes in their mouth or on their face (”The French they are a curious race, who fight with their feet and ...” etc.)

I’m up for that!
Looks like it might feel pretty good. I’d probably just fall asleep.

Sounds like an Episode of "House".

I think that ditty is not original to PJ. But yes, he's one of my favorites going back to National Lampoon days. His books
Parliament of Whores, and
Don't Vote, It Just Encourages the Bastards both come to mind among many others. I use him as an example of an archetypal caustic Ohio sense of humor. The National Lampoon edition about "Dacron, Ohio" was priceless.
I believe the poem about the French and their oral proclivities goes way back and is British in origin. I've been using it for years myself.
