        OK, I wouldn't put goof off on my clothes -- it is very greasy!

        Jimmie, I have Goop at the house, which is a hand cleaner in a tub like that that mechanics use to get the grease off their hands. I wonder if its the same stuff?

              I'll check for it at Walmart this weekend. thanks for the tip.

              Jerz, that happens to me too most of the time, every once in a while one just works! Most of the time I have to upload it to photobucket to make it work.

                My XH (constantly working on his car & truck) used to pretreat all his greasy-tarry clothes with 409, let set a few minutes, then launder separately from my clothes. It worked pretty well.

                      Yea, that's my experience Jimmie, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. Its weird too, cause if you look at the "properties" of both pics, they look like the same thing..they both start with http:// and end with .jpg weird huh?

                        The gatorade one works, i have used it for headaches in the past, and my fiancee always has a stock of it to drink before going to bed after drinking a lot, it really prevents the morning after headaches (at least this works for my dad and fiancee), they say it's the minerals...

                          A lot less expensive solution is a pinch of salt substitute (potassium chloride) and a pinch of epsom salts (magnesium salt) dissolved in a beverage, water or broth. You can treat a month of hangovers (also leg cramps & sometimes depression & mood swings) for the price of ONE Gatorade.

                              Calling all former Booze hounds!!!!
                              I've been messing in the basement again (tho not to get on the scales down there) and guess what I find:
                              3 cases of assorted SoBe concoctions, 3 boxes of "Liquid Love" drink, and a box with a collection of energy drinks!!!!
                              Bad news is, all but a handfull are packed with carbs!! One type hase over 60g in the bottle.

                              I think maybe there's a chance that these drinks could be fermented to replace the carbs with alcohol. Think of it - a truely unique collection of bottled home remedies - all alcoholic, all containing different ingredient combinations of herbs, stimulants, vitamins, minerals and flavors. Alcoholic low carb versions of the originals, or combinations, or mixed with fresh picked berry must...

                              Anyone got any ideas how this might work, please?

                                Sorry, only thing I have learned how to make is homemade wine, and you need real fresh fruit for that! I tried a SoBe once....ICK...it was susposed to be like a pina colada or something coconuty, I bought it cause it had a cute little gecko on the bottle. Yuck.
