Exfoliate This!

by Jimmy Johnson

Do I ever get ideas in the shower? Yes, sometimes I actually do. This oldie from 2001 certainly was based on true-life events. You might as well keep a cheese grater in the shower. I admit to having very thin skin, and here I am, a cartoonist. The loofah “sponge,” of course, is not a sponge at all but the dried guts of a vining gourd that is related to the cucumber. That’s zero for two in my book. Thankfully, there also is the watermelon. That makes it one for three.

    I use something like a loofah. I like it as it foams up the soap and I can see where I have washed.

    Went back into Mexico today. Walked through a very state of the art plant on the edge of town. A lot of military and police presence. One of the persons traveling with me asked what the police and military are looking for. I told them it is like owning a big dog. They may not seem to be doing much, but it wards off undesirables.

      Thanks, TruckerRon, I had never heard any of this. Sounds like the makings of a comedy movie.

    I’ve never tried to use a watermelon in the shower. Never even taken one in there with me. My wife bought watermelon scented shampoo at one time. Does that count?

    The only good thing about a cucumber is that it can be made into pickles. Polish dills and bread and butter for my personal preference. I have found that I like the sponge balls made of plastic net to shower with. To me, they are easier to handle than a washcloth and they certainly bring up the lather better. Never tried a loofah after feeling the texture of one. I’m with you Jimmy, no interest in using a cheese grater.

    In fairness to Arlo, it did appear he applied the loofah to a sensitive spot. Well, one of them, anyway.

    Hi, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.
    When I look at your blog site in Ie, it looks
    fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has
    some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!

    With havin so much content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a
    lot of exclusive content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it
    is popping it up all over the web without my agreement.
    Do you know any techniques to help reduce content from being stolen? I’d
    genuinely appreciate it. scoliosis surgery https://coub.com/stories/962966-scoliosis-surgery scoliosis surgery
