Same thing goes for stitches itching (after Doc says OK) as goes for Chicken-Pox Baking-Soda Bath or Calamine lotion.

Worked for me and 2 hernia surgeries.

[SandRat]

Alright... but she has to give chubby lil arm tight squeeze hugs round my neck.

Thanks for the ping!!

This Memorial Day as every day in my life, I thank God for the great men and women of the US Armed Forces! Those that have laid down their lives for me and my family are in my prayers daily.

We’ll spend the weekend between memorial services and baseball tournies. May God continue to bless America.

Thanks to all of you in the Canteen.
