Miscellaneous/Amusing News Items
We often get miscellanous new items posted...Should we start a thread specifically for any odds and ends that are amusing, interesting, gross or whatever which are not necessarily going to promote discussion but may be of interest to members of the board?

My "Granny Grows A Horn" thread would have been ideal here.

Re: Miscellaneous/Amusing News Items
This amused me - cut from The Times:
Ladies, it's time to take care of your hair, and this time I'm not talking about the ones on your head. You may already be au fait with the streamline style of a Brazilian and the purifying properties of a Hollywood but now you can also indulge in a Mexican. No not a moustachioed beauty therapist wearing a protective poncho and playing Guantanamera while relieving you of any unwanted nether-region fuzz but the newest trend in bikini hair design: making sure your collor and cuffs match. At Scin the organic boutique spa in Notting Hill you can "cover grey, change your look, and make sure that everything matches" with a new sensitive range of hair dyes designed specifically for our more private parts. Are they serious?

Re: Miscellaneous/Amusing News Items
This doesn't really fit in here but it is (for me) an amusing news story - in the music section of the Times and I apologise if it's been posted elsewhere:
" Book now....Ryan Adams. Alt-country's most erratic practitioner is back on form, judging by his latest album Easy tiger. His tour - backed by Neal Casal's Cardinals - starts November 11 Millennium Centre Cardiff." Neal Casal's Cardinals? There was me thinking they were Ryan Adams' Cardinals.
