Amazon or any marine store. Theres over 1400 reviews on amazon with a 4.7 rating. Less than 20 bucks for 32oz spray bottle. Goes a long ways. I even detail and the rubber and plastic in car engine bays. My wife's car is 2 years old and the motor looks brand new. Its great for platic headlights. Zero oxidation for years. I'm such a geek about this stuff. Lol.

I'll check it out.

The Flyers team and fans are making a spectacle of themselves in this series.

I hope somebody knocks Schenn 5 rows into the stands............through the glass.

Schenn has been acting like he is Dale Hunter. Cheap shots after the whistle and irresponsible play otherwise. He needs to be planted.

Philly has had rowdy fans for as long as I can remember. Many fond memories @ Cap Center in the 80's during the Langway/Hunter/Gartner/Hayworth/Pivonka/Hatcher et al era. No Flyers game was complete without multiple fights in the stands and police escorts out of the building. Philly fans traveled like a pack to DC. Not sure if they still do or not but it was wild back in the 80's.

I was in CO last week on the front range.  Decided to head up into the foothills on a drive.  Had been to Nederland before, but not anywhere else.  Followed what was supposed to be a scenic drive, but just ended up being me going 20 mph on a dirt road trying not to get myself killed.  Along that route I went past the little town of Pinecliffe.  Turns out, I should have stuck around.

Add me to the list, I just grabbed the only bottle Wally-Mart had, due to your high recommendation. Thanks for mentioning the grill cover use. Will be spraying this stuff on quite a lot!

You won't regret it. You'll probably be as amazed as I was once I started using it. Doesn't smell like anything. Doesn't leave any type of slippery oily residue or make anything look greasy. Just makes everything brand new. I'm not sure how armor all is still in business to be honest. 

 

I ordered another bottle from amazon yesterday. I need to find some more stuff to put it on. I might walk the neighborhood at night hitting random lawn chairs and grill covers. lol

Nasalcort, Azelastine, and Zyrtec.  Good cocktail combo!

 

A balloon sinuplasty last fall didn't hurt any either. :)

 

eta:  I forgot a daily sinus rinse too.

 

how do you even function on all that medicine? lol

 

Claritin here -- with some motrin for inflammation

 

did a salt water gargle to help my throat

 

took a little nyquil last nigh to help me sleep, as well as a nasal strip on my nose, which helps a lot. 

 

i try to avoid nasal sprays until completely congested, which thankfully I'm not. just stuffy, and the post nasal drip, which is what is killing me the most.

Normally, I really dislike taking medicine, including allergy meds even though when it comes to pollen and ragweed I'm up there with the worst of them when it comes to suffering.  I got shots as a kid for years, and then started getting them again as an adult about 12 years ago, but they are so inconvenient that I stopped.

 

My current problems started about a year and a half ago when I got one of my annual winter sinus infections.  Even after clearing up, one of my ears stayed clogged.  Obviously, it was annoying but I didn't think it was a big deal until I went to an ear doctor after about 3 weeks of constantly asking people, "Huh?," over and over.  He immediately took it more seriously than I had and injected steroids behind my ear drum (ouch) and again a week later.   It's been a battle ever since trying to get the ear to clear, including tubes (I feel like a four year old!).

 

It's much better now but the inhalants during the spring and fall helped keep me clear.  And although I react to antihistamines and psuedophedrine by getting wired and jumpy, the stuff I'm taking doesn't bother me. 

 

And if anyone is susceptible to regular sinus infections and have been told that surgery is an option but doesn't like the idea of anything invasive, balloon sinuplasty worked really well for me and my sinuses are way better.

 

Anyway, I'm just glad to be able to be outside and not suffer like I used to.

Allergies? What are those?  :P

 

I don't normally suffer from allergies, but the last couple of mornings I've even woken up with an irritated throat and runny nose -- Very annoying. So I know the folks that normally suffer are probably wishing Spring never existed right now.

Glad you're alive!

I usually don't have allergies but I could barely breathe yesterday.

 

hehe, thanks! I knew someone would miss me if not ;)

This year is by far the worst I've had from them. I usually take Claritin year-round, or mostly year-round. And never have any need to take more than that. But the past few days have been bad. Yesterday was terrible, made even worse with the wind. I'll get through it, just need rain.

 

I feel for my kid, as it seems she has allergies too. Runny nose, itchy eyes, sneezing. And her poor face is so dry (she's always had really sensitive skin, cannot apply enough lotion on her in the winter). This week is tough because daycare is closed, so we've been home with her, and she wants to be outside playing. So that just compounds both the allergies and the dry skin. 

 

Good times in the Mappy household haha

I never had allergies (or they were mild at worst) until I hit my 40's. Now every year they are a little worse. This is the first year I've had to take allegra every day and I've suffered from burning nose and throat with some bloody noses. I don't think this year is any different pollen wise. I think getting older is the real issue.

The human body can be weird. Like you, I went 60 years without ever being allergiuc to anything. Now three years later, I take Claritin every day and seem to have a constant runny nose. And since I have been in my house for 30 years, and golfing at the same club for 20 plus years, it is not like there is anything new in my enviroment.

Yea they have hit my oldest daughter hard this time. She keeps saying she has a sore throat. Though it was strep but it is just raw from all the drainage. May need to start putting her back on something. 

 

yup, thats me. hope she feels better soon!
