Nice analogy.
Two head lice for a dime? Now that's a bargain!

...."the survivor" of hair splitting arguments, or perhaps more simply
"das Ubermensch" (the overman).

Delousing will be arranged.... and we'll do it the old fashioned way.

Yes, but only if the head lice allow the little louse to do so.
The trouble it that when you have more than one, as in two or more head
lice, it's government by means of committee. That's what led to the
tartan booties. It all happened when the socks were dunked into the
Scotch whisky by mistake. They all came out tartan.
No, but I could warm up to a tart in booties!

Who's this Eli...
Whitney?
Wallach?
Lilly?
I was in Mexico (a couple of times) over a year ago, training news
editors at TV Azteca. I could not possibly pass up the opportunity to
see Teotihuacan. I climbed the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of
the Moon with great difficulty, as I was recovering from a bout with
pneumonia. It was well worth the effort, as the view of the Moon
Pyramid and the mountains from the top of the Sun Pyramid inspired me to
draw what I saw onto a hand made postal card bound for the US.
I enjoyed walking down the Avenue of the Dead and absorbing the
archituctural and sculptural surprises found there. Here ther be
dragons. I tried very hard to imagine the site in its full glory of
blazing color.
It's much too hot there though... I pulled constantly at my giant sized
bottle o' water.
Most striking is the huge number of people eking out a living selling
"authentic" reproductions, toys, and otherwise questionable gewgews to
the touristas. One of them browbeat me into buying a crude obsidian
carving, which I gave to my sister.
Guilt can be an effective marketing tool.
