Default George is in trouble

synopsis for the lazy:

Another reason to worry about global warming: more and itchier poison ivy.The noxious vine grows faster and bigger as carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere rise, researchers report Monday.
And a CO2-driven vine also produces more of its rash-causing chemical, urushiol, conclude experiments conducted in a forest at Duke University where scientists increased carbon-dioxide levels to those expected in 2050.

Sheet, me too. I got some on my face for the first time ever. I hate this evil weed. I think the arabs planted it here.

We were remarking on how big and healthy it was this weekend.

I saw it and made a mental note of where it is on the course during that pre-ride.

As soon as I read this in the Register I thought of George.
Not good!

I'm still suffering from that sheet. I'm determined to make it go away though. Tonight, I Tecnu'd my flip flops because I put them on immedietely after the ride. I think I got some re-contact from them last weekend when I wore them all Saturday. Nice little blister patch on my left foot. I also threw away my MTB gear duffle bag, and washed ALL my gear on HOT with a warm rinse. I'm coming out of my MTB'ing slumber next week to waste the competition with my 2.5 week rested legs. Booyaa!!

My cube partner at work got it REALLY bad in Holy Jim Canyon about 6 months ago shooting a feature truck. He came to work every freakin day with it covering and oozing all over his arms. Im not a complainer but I had to say something and worked from home for the next week.

Also, I did some shopping at REI today and picked up some TECNU outdoor skin cleaner for Poison Oak and Ivy. Get some!

What a wuss you are. I had oozing blisters all over my legs, and my wife would still sleep in the same bed as me. Were you two making out, and the ooze was sticking to your pelvic area? C'mon, tell us the truth!
