Get the kind you buy for use before injecting insulin rather than the overpriced scented bits of fluff sold as handwipes - every pharmacy stocks them and they're guaranteed to kill loads of germy cooties! After years of temping, usually covering sick leave for someone with a hacking cough of dose of the flu, I use wipes to clean office phones, keyboards, ATM machines, cart handles, and sometimes my hands after touching something particularly nasty. Sounds paranoid maybe, but I've just don't catch colds anymore like I used to. :) Which is why I always always carry alcohol wipes in my handbag!

I Purell my fingers after using any of those. PPS: I'm still not Howard Hughes. PS: no mention of public telephones (buttons, receiver) or ATM machine buttons or Direct Pay buttons?

I found you in the blogroll at Blog From A Broad. You can easily see by the suffix on my email addy that I am Canadian, too. Fascinating stuff. It's funny that your post about public germs is the first one I read here... cuz I have this thing about germs too, though not in a Michael Jackson or Howard Hughes way, and I recently heard on the radio that grocery carts are the most infested and more often than not, the least-often cleaned/disinfected. YUCK! I will bookmark you, read some archives, and be back. Love from the Laurentians, LG. Hi CG! I found you in the blogroll at Blog From A Broad.
