I need a cheaper makeup remover. All I use it for is taking off the adhesive from the bandages from the IV. Total waste of Clinique, but it's the most effective thing I have in the house right now.

Jojoba oil. Best thing ever.

I know when I'm downloading someone's IP that it could go away any time now, and I'm not really asking for general sympathy in the case of its loss.

Yeah. I mean, it's kind of stupid that there's no way to access stuff worldwide legally when it's released, but I do at least recognize the implications of what I'm doing when I ahem. I'm fairly judicious, for the most part.

I do at least recognize the implications of what I'm doing when I ahem

I swear, I've read more people complaining about a loss of access to copyrighted materials than complaining about the loss of a tool for legal filesharing (and most of the legal complaints were here).

Jilli, is there a particular jojoba oil, or can I just swing by the Vitamin Shoppe and pick up whatever?

I think I have an excuse for new jeans now...but I do so hate jeans shopping. I wish the cut I like came in black or dark wash, but not so Lucky.

Just pick up whatever. I think the bottle I currently have is Desert Essence, but I've used various brands.

Also, I'm startled by the number of people saying "But how will I violate copyright now??" with some sort of air of innocence, like they were owed free TV somehow.

It's the young generation that tends to think that.

I pick up Jojoba oil at Trader Joe's sometimes - a little bottle lasts me a long time so I haven't done it recently, but it seems to me they had a nice low price.

Eta: but when I look at the bottle I have now, it's Desert Essence.

GRRRRR. I applied for a position at a company an ex-manager works at. It's basically doing what I was doing before I took my current position. He pointed out that it's a hard job, but if I was interested, he totally thought it would work. I sent in my resume, someone emailed me to set up a phone interview...and the woman on the phone interview was basically like "Well, are you currently doing X, Y, and Z (kind of presentations)?" and I was like "Um, no, not in my current job. But in my previous positions, I did X, Y, and although I didn't do Z, I was on the other side of it, and have seen and critiqued a number of them. Note that in the position, I STILL wouldn't be doing Z, but would be present for it. Maybe doing a small portion of it. She was like "Well, I'm sorry, that's not good enough. We only hire people with experience with X, Y, and Z, or internal candidates. You could apply for (my current job) and hope to get the position later". I was like "Do your people in (my current job) do X, Y, and Z??" (NOBODY in my current job does X, Y, and Z), and she was like 'Well, sometimes. Maybe." GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

So I emailed ex manager and was like "Thanks, but no thanks, don't want to take the same job I have and hope for an opening some years in the future, they don't seem to think I"m qualified" (I might as well do that at my CURRENT job, where I already have years in and people who think I'm awesome!). Hrmph.

than complaining about the loss of a tool for legal filesharing

I don't have a legal filesharing tool. At least not at work. If I need to send someone a file larger than 5MB, I have to burn a CD.

I am pretty loyal to Proactive. I've tried other things, but they don't keep the acne at bay like Proactive does. And, yes, I am 44 and still have acne-prone skin. I like to think that means I won't get dry skin and wrinkles.

I have acne and wrinkles, which I consider totally unfair.
