    Sounds like a possibility, but I need more information.

    We have very few Japanese School Girls in Ankeny, Iowa so I am at somewhat of a loss as to what I am looking for.

    Does this back pack come complete with a Japanese School Girl or do you have to provide your own? :confused:

    Do they have Japanese Grandmother backpacks?
    That's more my speed.:tongue:

    Anyone know why the foamies are yellow? Are there collectors who collect them? What happens if you stick some in a microwave?

    If someone wants to do the microwave thing, please remove them from your ears first.

    This looks about right. Is that a self portrait with your "friend"? :heh:

    but it says "purse" on the package, what does that say about the buyer

    1. That the buyer is confident enough in his masculinity to not care what it says on the package.

    2. That the buyer has enough intelligence to take it out of the package before use.:biggrin:

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    I think they're yellow so a supevisor/rangemaster can see if you've got them in.

    I use an Altoids tin for a first-aid kit I keep on the bike; bandaids, alcohol swabs, liquid bandage, stuff like that. Very handy at times.

    My favorite brand of earplugs, Moldex Rockets, comes in a nice little plastic box. It's round and fits nicely in my sleeve pocket.

    One issue I've always had is that it's hard to get a good fit with most earplugs (too large of diameter, I think). I compress and roll them up, but they still don't fit deep enough to seal well, and pop out easily. I haven't found any that I can reliably get in my ears, and stay there when I put on my helmet. (Yes, my helmet is a small, and I nearly went with an XS...)

    I have been trying earplugs when riding as well, found that they make ear plugs for different db levels. The first pair I tryed were worked too good and I could not hear anything which did not work for me, so I switched to a lower db plug and its working great so far. Also keeping them in my pocket works fine.....

    Sandwich bag in my ventura bag, one in my tank bag and about a dozen [pairs in a small sandwich bag in my jacket pocket - I get them from work and have lost count of how many I have handed out when people say (and there's a lot of them) "why do you have earplugs in?"... Hand over a couple of pairs and always get positive feedback...
