Shampoo once, rather than twice in each shower session?

LMAO !! Never have fallen for that "repeat" crap...and as time has
passed it is becoming moot :)

LOL. I never fell for that one.

Sis-Misc used to buy the cheap stuff and then mix it 50/50 with water.
I use to think it was because she was so amazingly cheap (and she was!).
but then I remembered that she had amazingly thick hair (even AFTER
chemo, was thicker than most 20 yr olds start with). After I started
using it (just trying to empty the bottles), I realized that, for
thinning-hair guys like me, you really CAN stretch hardly-any shampoo
quite a long ways...

There was a kiddo science column in the paper here for a few years and
one episode showed how one can shampoo effectively w/ about 4 drops of
shampoo.... the water is doing most of the clean part.... the shampoo
is a detergent... ditto w/ laundry and dishes. "a little dab'll do ya"

More OT - has anyone tried the thing where you open a 2 liter bottle of
diet coke and using a funnel, quickly dump in 16 mentos mints? It's a
terrific fountain of foam - and it works (do this outside).... saw it
done at a park here and the coke appeared to shoot 30 or 40' in the
air. Expending energy instead of conserving it can be fun. <g>
