VICKS VAPO RUB - INTERESTING
During a lecture on Essential Oils, they told us how the foot soles can
absorb oils. Their example: Put garlic on your feet and within 20 minutes
you can 'taste' it.
Some of us have used Vicks Vapo rub for years for everything from chapped
lips to sore toes and many body parts in between. But I've never heard of
this. And don't laugh, it works 100% of the time, although the scientists
who discovered it aren't sure why. To stop night time coughing in a child
(or adult as we found out personally), put Vicks Vapo rub generously on the
soles of your feet, cover with socks, and the heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief. Works 100% of the time
and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines.
In addition it is extremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly.
Just happened to tune in A.M. Radio and picked up this guy talking about why
cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good, due to the chemicals
in them. This method of using Vicks vapo rub on the soles of the feet was
found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children at bed time. In addition it seems to have a soothing and calming effect on sick children who then
went on to sleep soundly.
My wife tried it on herself when she had a very deep constant and persistent
cough a few weeks ago and it worked 100%! She said that it felt like a warm
blanket had enveloped her, coughing stopped in a few minutes and believe me,
this was a deep, and incredibly annoying! every few seconds uncontrollable
cough, and she slept cough-free for hours every night that she used it.
If you have grandchildren, pass this on. If you end up sick, try it yourself
and you will be absolutely amazed at how it works.
DON'T SHUN THIS ONE.. TRY IT THE NEXT TIME YOU GET A BAD COLD.
THE ONLY THING YOU CAN LOSE IS YOUR COUGH..

I meant "new shoes" because your old ones smell like garlic... Guess you hadda be there... 
Actually, your cerebral tinkering makes more sense. In that light, a pair of slipons might be in order.
