Mass media, America’s nasty Chlamydia, a V.D., an S.T.D. called Network TV. You bet; the wet nurses, coercers and disbursers of news and views to the nation, or a confused interpretation thereof; the Corporations’ representation, as released for general dissemination to the beast, as Alexander Hamilton, was pleased to describe us. He ascribed to the line of thought, that proscribed and sought to, exclude, all those considered crude, and untutored, which effectively, even back then, neutered ninety percent of the white male complement. But that’s all changed; now a range of, activities are in place, to keep the real proclivities and face of America invisible; so much for indivisible. We have now, rabid consumers and avid assumers; a non-thinking population. Yet another generation, which accepts, unblinking, the precepts of reality, as defined, by a refined, and elite ideology, sponsored by the Captains of Industry; what they perceive, we’re supposed to believe, and take for truth. It’s a ruse, make-believe, designed to deceive us, and at the same time relieve us of, any responsibility, for planning, or manning our own destiny; it’s all serendipity say the few. Their one sided view, right on cue, causes refraction, and pauses the action of the many. Weapons of mass distraction; fixing our attention in another dimension thus, switching our focus to another locus, to further muddy our perception. A perfect deception, a standard joke; to be candid, a yoke. Like the myth of the liberal media, the wish of the ignorant, and more belligerent whose, core is blinded by the right; sightless drones who don’t even know the media’s been owned and cloned by Corporate America, since their advent, which event, brought to the forefront their insatiable greed, and the need to plant a seed and prevent a thinking agent - indeed their main intent - was to reinvent the wheel, so they could say what’s good and what’s real; what’s hot, and what’s not; reality V for all to see. And we all trot along, with our little patriot songs; they got us, led us, dead to right or wrong, we’re on the side of the strong, all night long. The polls showed the incumbent ahead, although I read and heard the word on the street was, hell no, he’s got to go. More than a few refused to choose between the War on Terror, and the flaw of economic error.

Many people may not realize it but skin care has been an issue for thousands and thousands of years. It was the ancient Egyptians who were actually the first ones to use many 0f the beauty regimens which we use today.

As long ago as the fourth millennium BC, Egyptians have been taking their skin care very seriously. Egyptians were already using natural skin conditioners to treat skin conditions. These Egyptians used ingredients such as jajoba, safflower oil, rose hip oil, shea butter, witch hazel, tea tree oil, chamomile, and aloe vera. Many of these ingredients are used in many of the skin products that we use today.

The ancient Egyptians also had the idea of combining several skin care products to create one product which can cure many skin conditions. One recipe which was used by the Egyptians consists of bullock’s bile, whipped ostrich eggs, olive oil, dough, and resin mixed with milk.

It is the ancient Egyptians who we can thank for the invention of soap. It has been said that the ancient Egyptians extracted soap from a soapwort plant. This soap would then be mixed with fragrance and animal oil to create soap. More about the bascis of skin care here
