V

Vicks
No, I'm not sick, but thought I'd pick this up today for the inevitable.
Don't know about you, but Vicks brings back such good memories; my Mom tenderly rubbing this into a congested chest; warm soup to make my aches go away, the burning, clean smell will always bring back a sense of healing.

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel
1/50s f/1.8 at 85.0mm iso200 full exif

Well, MY mom made us put this stuff DOWN OUR THROAT, not just on our chest. We survived, but how I'll never know. As an adult I remember reading somewhere that you should NEVER put this into the throat. God, I hated that stuff! That said, great V!

At first glance I thought it was vaseline in the thumbnail. I thought to myself,,, "she's really going there now".
Ok ok, I'll leave that alone,, nuff said! Really!
As for the Vick's,,, never used it, nor did my mother. Guess I missed out. hmmm next time I shop I'll have to,,,

OMG, my memories of this stuff are just the opposite! I HATED this when I was little. My mom would apply this to the vaporizer and make me breath it! Ewwww!!!!!!!!!

Great "V," though! Very original.

I could use that right now. Too much standing in snow for this Louisiana girl. And I still don't have a V!

Hmm, yes. The Vaporub helped with the hallucinations, too. Guess it is that time of year.

Good product image..and the thing is: you have sold me a longing for a cold now. Ahhh yes those memories.

Ah Dennis, you don't want to share those thougths with the class, DO you???
Dennis Croteau05-Dec-2004 01:29
Not exactly what I expected after last nights post, but a good "V" anyhow.
