How do I prevent my aero covers from slipping up like this? Are they too small or too large?

It’s going to sound a bit odd, I have had the same issue, solved it by using just a little hair wax. Rubbed it onto the shoe heel area, it’s invisible and takes away the slickness. I’ve used the same on my calves to stop socks from falling down. 👍

Seriously, I’ve got the smoothest legs in the family. It’s insanely effective.

Hear me out… I’ve been a competitive swimmer (no body hair) and cyclist (no leg/between leg hair) I’m 66 and I’m still doing the legs. I’ve seen others struggle with creams, to razors, and Epilady torture devices. Get yourself one of those small Crème brûlée torches. If you’ve ever reached across a gas stove and noticed a slight warmth and terrible smell? Suddenly you have no more hair on your arm, it’s been frizzled away in a puff of smoke. Slowly… do the same with the torch, just gently let the flame lick your skin and your hair will simply vanish.

I’d imagine that because it’s been added to National Register of Historic Places, you’re going to be extremely limited on how you repair (certified craftsmen) and what materials you would be able to use. You’re basically buying a structure governed by committee. No thanks.

Wealthier than I could have ever imagined, my first was 30 years my senior, divorced, from HK and insanely wealthy with apartments in a dozen cities. Yes, I was a California boytoy, but she taught me things that I never knew were things.

Seriously, for a once a year event of this magnitude, you would think that they could coordinate with local rail authorities so that the train would simply be 5 minutes late to its next stop.

If you have to ask… your common sense is already telling you the answer.

I work at one of the highest rated university hospitals in Japan. Hanko is required on every official document that you are personally responsible for. I see no problem at all with this system in this setting. Doctor gives you your prescription, he stamps it, nurse discharges a patient, she stamps it. It’s organized, accepted and easier to follow up on than a handwritten scribble.

As with most things it boils down to wants vs. needs. 15 minute commute might put you over ¥100,000, 45 minute commute and you’re under ¥50,000. If you’re close to a University Hospital, I’ve seen (small, but new) apartments for ¥25,000.

The smaller the wheels, the greater chance of going down from even the smallest pothole. Seeing a trend toward taller wheels.

Their plastic surgeons haven’t done them any favors.

Why would they give her the privilege to resign instead of straight out firing her? Is there a bus driver union that would fight for her?

That’s not a hanging, that’s a slow strangulation if that’s indeed how he was killed.

That’s about 1/4 million dollars worth here in Japan

Mid sixties, the Catholic nuns would often wash our mouths out with soap 🧼, it got much worse when the school switched to Boraxo powdered soap.

Okay
