2. Is there a big gaping red mark there now?
If so, I don't know if I should talk to you until it heals

3. Oh yes
And still bleeding!

Fortunately it's hidden right below my hair, so no one will really see it.

..with some stuff on a swab - I don't know if it was liquid nitrogen or not so don't go trying it! But it was pretty painless and healed well.

15. If Kucinich would only become President,
no one would have to worry about affording a doctor.

What a shame on this country!

Although it didn't really hurt - I guess nerves don't grow into them.

10. Nuther question: How does one get a wart on their forehead?
Is this one of those urban legends where you piss by the side of the road and bad things appear on your face?

17. DUCT TAPE TRULY HEALS EVERYTHING!!
New discovery...duct tape for six days triggers an immune response, then take the duct tape off, soak daily and reapply duct tape at night.

Within several weeks, duct tape will take care of the wart--no dermatologist needed.

I read about this in our local paper. Let me see if I can find a link that details the treatment. Be back in a sec....

.......Ok...here you go...may not be just like what I described above, but close...

"CONCLUSION: Duct tape occlusion therapy was significantly more effective than cryotherapy for treatment of the common wart."
