My bet is for Noon. On a side note, i turned in my proposed changes to the lice policy to my principal, and although she "understood" what i was saying, I got the feeling it may take a few years in small baby steps to get a true no nit policy in place.

But, you have initiated the process. That is a giant baby step.

My guess for the little buggers expiration will be....ooooh well heck. I'm not gonna guess, because we know that OldDude will make sure that we all get a trophy anyway!!

Guessing dead by 11am.

New lice policy just sent out for our schools. Can't find anything new there, still the same... send 'em home with live lice or nits! There is a new form in the packet for SW, but really that is all I see different.

In my area, the "super lice" story circulating again on the local news. It makes it sound like the lice have grown into 6 foot tall monsters with 2 heads instead of just becoming resistant to treatment. Resistance because you just keep throwing bottles of it on their head but NEVER COMB. It is all about the comb, the comb, the comb!!

CURSE YOU LESTER HOLT!!! Tonight's NATIONAL news on NBC had the "super lice" story. It's gonna be pandalerium tomorrow at school :***:PS love the comb!

This almost makes me wish for an active case. I love me some good scientific data gathering :)

It's 3:15 and I'm wondering about the louse.

oh the things that keep you up, Far! I think we need a full study with a control louse. one being played soft music. one being played thrash metal. and see which one dies first. maybe we can create a whole new treatment method.

Was it a super louse? Did it have a little golden "S" on it's chest and a red cape?

When you got to school this morning was there a hole in the baggie where it had busted out??

Resistance is futile! :borg:

Sorry, I saw the word resistance and I've always wanted to use the Borg looking smiley. Saw my chance.

Oh happy day! I just got a call from one of my schools. I just might get to collect a live specimen!! I am gonna stick a Ziploc bag in my pocket to have...just in case. Here I go to find out. Hope its not a Super Lice! :sarcastic: :blink:
