Monitoring My Blood Pressure (From Reading Court Filings)
I bought a blood pressure monitor after reading particularly stressful court filings. Got the Bronze. Should have spent $12 more for the Silver.
Read the full storyThe Great Shampoo Experiment (Selsun Blue vs. Nizoral)
I bought both. Selsun Blue is the brute force option. Nizoral is the smart play. I use Nizoral 2x/week and regular shampoo the rest of the time.
