Not your mother's botulism by Lank
June 9th, 2007 3:11 AM / Location: 34.073315,-118.2936It was the "look 10 years younger" part that threw me. I assumed that looking 10 years younger was a natural by-product of "burning something from your wallet". Because only young people burn things from their wallet, right?
That wasn't good enough for me. I wanted this task to be more exciting than just burning something from my wallet. I wanted to actually look 10 years younger in the course of completing this task. So I had a little safety meeting and set to work.
What did I find in my wallet? Business card from the job I'm soon leaving? No. Post-It with an ex-girlfriend's contact info? No. (We're friends, okay?) Cash? Hmmm... no. Wait!
I found a ticket for an Electric Six show I've had stashed in my wallet since last year. I think that this band, above any other, would appreciate fire treatment.
As for looking 10 years younger? For that, I solicited the assistance of Mr. Remington.

In case you're curious, the ten years younger part of the task came from
http://sf0.org/spl/taskDetail/?id=782
where Jackie H made a comment saying
"sean looks like 10 years younger while burning something from his wallet. a coincidence? or a feat that can be achieved by anyone?
perhaps i will post a task called "better than botox: look 10 years younger while burning something from your wallet.""
I get a sense of panic just looking at that second to last photo..
Wow, that DANGER! picture is AMAZING.
Incidentally, I was about to comment that "no, sometimes it's his left eyebrow that's raised" when I realized that the camera taking the picture was...in the picture. Oh.
As someone who has taken task photos of myself holding something on fire, I know you deserve a vote. And you do look younger
I love the literal translation of the metaphorical. I'm inspired.
Way to go...this is just leaps and bounds beyond walking and chewing gum at the same time! Astonishing.
yes you do always have your right eyebrow raised.
