Would You Try This?
We all love getting a nice pedicure, especially in the summertime, right?
Ok, but have you heard of fish pedicures?
Fish pedicures are all the rage at a northern Virginia spa, where customers immerse their feet into a pool of water that is filled with tiny fish that eat the dead skin off your feet.
Although gross to some, the fish have proven to be a more sanitary way of removing dead skin and calluses than traditional razors. Also, more effective.
John Ho, owner of Yvonne Hair and Nails, says, “This is a good treatment for everyone who likes to have nice feet.”
The toothless fish are called garra rufa but are better known as doctor fish. They were first used in Turkey and are popular in some Asian countries.
Tracy Roberts, 33, of Rockville, Md., tried it and said it was “the best pedicure I ever had. I’d been an athlete all my life, so I’ve always had calluses on my feet. This was the first time somebody got rid of my calluses completely,” she said.
KaNin Reese, 32, of Washington, described the feeling of the fish pedicure, “It kind of feels like your foot’s asleep.”
The treatment costs $35 for 15 minutes and $50 for 30 minutes.
After trying a communal pool, the state stepped in and required individual tanks in which the water is changed for each customer. Before changing to individual tanks the fish would flock to the feet the person with the most dead skin on their feet.
“It would sometimes be embarrassing for them but it was also really hilarious,” Ho said.
Never Give a Random Guy Your Business Card..
Oh. My. Gawd.
So this gal gives a guy her business card after chatting with him for a couple minutes on the streets of San Fransisco. The phone calls that followed are almost unbelievable.
This guy tells the woman how stunning she is, tells her lucky she is to have him approach her and on and on. It only gets weirder the longer you listen. You honestly can’t even imagine the bullsh*t that this guy spews. Sad thing is, you can bet he believes it.
Thanks Jason for sending this to me, he found it over at Holy Taco.
Hot or Not?
These photos have been floating around the net for a couple months, being touted as the next hottest thing in Japanese footwear.
Not for most people, but you know that the foot freaks are probably lovin’ this craziness!
The boots at the bottom are kinda hot, not that I could or would wear them. Besides, what do you wear them with? A ponytail and a saddle, bitch! Ker-plop, ker-plop..
All these shoes are obviously for those bitches who love pain - and you can count my ass out!
Totally Inconspicuous
Michael Jackson is still totally off his wheelchair rocker!
Michael came out of seclusion recently to hit some stores near his home in Vegas. He went toy shopping, of course.
His kids - Prince Michael, Paris and ‘Blanket’ were all out too, thank goodness they still look normal. You can only hope they lead a somewhat regular childhood. But growing up with that man, I doubt it.
Oh, the books they will write one day…
Man, Michael’s dad really f*cked him up good, didn’t he? I mean you have to wonder what would have to happen to somebody to make them this bizarre. It’s sad really. Anyone who remembers him from back in the day can recall a totally different man.
Will we ever know, or understand Michael Jackson? Better yet, do we want to?
Boy Who Hops Planes Busted for Burglary
Remember the 10-year-old boy who managed to get on an airplane without a boarding pass in Texas last year and nearly did again in May?
It seems he is still up to no good, and you cant help but wonder what is going to become of his life.
Semaj Booker was arrested at 4:00 AM Saturday. He is accused of burglarizing a home, destroying property and making false statements to police.
Booker has quite a long rap sheet for such a young man.
He has been arrested more than once for stealing cars, and he even has a high-speed chase under his belt. After stealing his neighbor’s car that was left running, the 10-year-old led police on a chase sometimes reaching speeds of 90-mph. He wrecked the car then refused to come out. Police had to break a window to get him into custody. They believe he learned to drive from video games.
Booker is known as a frequent runaway and often gives police false names when detained.
He is in detention at Remann Hall in Tacoma and is scheduled to appear in court today.
Heelarious or Hurtful?
Two Seattle moms are hoping to hit the bigtime with their new creation - high-heels for infants.
“Heelarious,” a.k.a. “crib heels” are soft baby-booties for infants aged 0 to 6 months that look like pumps. They sell for $35 a pair.
Creator Britta Bacon says she came up with the idea on her way to daughter Kayla’s 4th birthday party. She says she thought, “That would have been hilarious if I could have brought Kayla to a party in high heels when she was a baby.”
Play that funky banjo, whitegirl!
She and co-creator Hayden Porter joke on the site that the shoes “may cause extreme smiling and hysterical laughter when in use (this is completely normal).”
I wonder if they got the idea from Beyonce’s lovely toddler line?
