The Perfect Mother's Day Gift 2009
Forget the perfume.
Scratch the chocolates idea.
We don't want flowers this year either.
Nope. For 2009, THIS is the best gift of all:
I predict these will be all the rage this season, soon to be featured on high fashion runways. Now available in a wide range of colors and patterns, coordination with her wardrobe will be a breeze for your Mom! Yep, this IS the Must Have Accessory For '09. She can wear it to the office, at the theatre, or even while strolling the mall... heck she'll need it everywhere she may accidentally come across another human being!
So get out there and get Mom the gift that not only says "I care", but also clearly conveys your truest, deepest thoughts:"Quit coughing on me".
Yer welcome.

So..... what have YOU been up to lately? Oh me? Well let's see. Since I last wrote, I have been uber-busy. Yesiree... busy, busy, busy... -
I was reading my Yahoo mail the other day and came across an email that really made my day. "I just love your blog!" Aw, shucks, t... -
I had a sneaking suspicion it would happen sooner or later, but today I realised it without a doubt it's true. Hubby and I have become...

FIRST!!!
I have a mask that is an exact photo of my face smiling underneath. That way, I can stick my tongue out at people without offending them...
I want the tiger mask! RROOOOAAAAAR!
Oh I want me the Tiger mask ! But cause I've a beard, I think a lion would suit me more ;)
P.S. Thank you for switching to full RSS feeds.
I usually wear a Richard Nixon mask but for some reason they HATE it when I wear it into a bank. Bunch of democrats I guess.
How incredibly timely, what with all this swine flu hysteria!
And just in time for the swine flew pandemic.....this is marketing genius. .....
Just don't wear one with a pig snout. Could garner you some hostile looks.
Give them a chance and they will have endless designs :O)
I would not be able to concentrate if my dentist came at me with that smiley face one. It's bad enough how funny he looks wearing a regular mask!
VE: Ha! Now THAT's a great idea!
Daisy: I thought of you when I saw that one!!!
Jaffer: :D Well, you're welcome. I figured no one is going to steal MY content... no SANE person, that is.
Douglas: Ahahaha! Yeah, that one was used a lot, no? Tricky Dicky indeed.
Jo-Jo: Exactly. It's a much-needed accessory these days.
Bruce: Genius, yes! We see a need, we fill it...
Shawn: Now THAT's a great idea!!! Oink!
Babs: Oh yes. And maybe even bling...
Kathy: I know! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that one!
You also need surgical gloves, because the virus is spread by hand contact as well. I bet you can make a fortune coming up with some cool ones.
A fabulous idea. Whoever thought of face masks being so cool. When I was in Japan, face masks are very common. If you have a sniffle, you wear one.
Maureen:
This is a great idea - a fantastic idea. It must have been developed by the Japanese. They have been wearing masks for years - not just hospital personnel, but everyday citizens. Just for courtesy. But I can't imagine Americans will ever do it. Yeah, the guy with a cold sitting next to you in the theater is going to wear a mask to protect YOU from him. Right. You'd be lucky if he doesn't cough in your face - on purpose! But these novelty masks might just be the thing that gets the everyday American into the courtesy camp - New Yorkers excluded, of course. But the rest of us might have a chance.
I can even see different masks to match our daily moods. Angry, sad, happy, indifferent.
Well done.
Happy trails.

Why didn't I think of that?!!
I dunno... I'm not so sure those are such a good idea. Imagine just waking up from the anesthesia and seeing one of those cat or clown faces. Yikes!
That dentist person scares me.
The Gossamer Woman: Oh yes! How about opera-gloves; fancy-shmancy elbow length surgical gloves. That should keep the majority of germs away, no? Classy too.
Rhea: Yes, we should be emulating the Japanese... sure, I see them all the time in the hospital on patients who are immune-compromised; but I would appreciate it if some of my co-workers also wore them; or learned the proper method to cough without spraying their germs everywhere.
Swubird: Yes, courtesy is definitely the word; so I think we are screwed here in North America.
Um, thanks Raven!
Momo Fali: What is it they say? Necessity is the Mother of Invention...
Lady Banana: How about if we find you a yellow one with a banana on it???
Jeff: Ha! I can imagine... hopefully not after heart surgery. They may just have to wheel you back in.
Musing Woman: Yeah, as if Dentists aren't scary enough!
Yikes, if someone came at me wearing the second mask pictured, I'd freak!
Those last three pictures kill me. They look like jail bait modeling masks for serial killers. The perfect gift!
I have a contest on my blog if you wish to check it out! :)
Me-Me King: I know... I wonder what twisted mind came up with THAT one for dentists?
Vegas Princess: I was amazed there are so many different ones; and that they are modelled by young anime-loving tweens! A contest? Ooh, I'm there!
