...I'm hurt about that. With my pouty lips, I'm a dead ringer for Angelina. All I'd need would be a Curse of the Golden Corset.
It's been kind of freaky actually. The skin tag was about the size of a sesame seed but it had obscured a large portion of visual field. I think I was trying to ignore it and wound up blotting out a goodly chunk of my range of vision. Now with it gone, it's like taking the blinders off. Mrs DM tells me that it is a common metaphor to levels of enlightenment used in religious studies. Sadly, there's no scar of note, nothing beyond a tiny flea-bite-like scab, which should soon disappear.
You two at DOOM south are weird.

The Peruvian rainforests played havoc with our skin.
After two weeks trudging around in rainforest, during which our clothes turned into a stinking rotting mass (some exaggeration, but not much), I suppose it's not surprising our skin was affected as well. I'll speak only for myself here. I developed lumps and sores in odd places, on my butt, around the knees, and lots of small white bumps around the wrists and ankles. These later began to itch, and I ended up with scabs that lasted long after our return. I also developed a couple big bumps on my testicles. And just to top it all off, I grew a skin tag on my inner right thigh just below the hang of my testicles.
Yes, this probably falls into the "too much info" department, but I wanted to share -- because I'm a sharing guy. Anyway, it's a very small skin tag -- like the tip of a finishing nail -- and it doesn't block my vision too much. So I've left it alone.

if it's dark and the PPFY is stumbling about.
When did this become the I have a skin infection thread? Ninjas? Pirates? If I sent pictures of all my extra skin growths, I'd crash the server.

It's bad enough the Ninja day is week, but have you seen some of things marketing has come up with to show how cool it is to be a ninja?
I present the Ninja Hamster. It makes me want to cry!

...and while 2006 was a good year for pirates with PotC2, this year will belong to the ninjas. Don't tell them I told you that.

What's with the Ninja in the pirate song with the very phallic sword between his legs? Or shovel? And why did it end so abruptly? I want more!

Hey DM - you know what that site is missing? Pet supplies.
Cuchulain's skunked collar had to be burned and I had to get a boring replacement. I looked all over the Internet and could not find a ninja-themed collar. Preston's already got a Pirate-themed collar.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I second this.
Cool collars with Chinese or Japanese characters, or witty proverbs like : "Every Year is the Year of the Dog!" or "If found: I AM NOT FOOD" (in Chinese, get it? Heh heh waiting for the call from the anti-defamation league!

Black collar decorated with lots of skull-and-cross-bones.

...a ninja dog collar should be black with shuriken all over it? Nah, a real ninja collar would have a blade, a garrote and some smoke bombs tucked in a secret pocket. Hell, a real ninja dog would be a cat in disguise...

Get on it. for a while, we though the Ninja collar would be invisible. I don't think they need the garrotte. And they do produce their own gas bombs. At quite inoppurtune times, I might add. But they are Ninja dogs. What would be the right oppurtunity?

But I needed to post it some place.
Maybe you've seen it before...

Okay, that wasn't the image I intended. Not certain what went awry.
Here's another go at it....
Though I'm beginning to suspect the numbered images keep changing...
