Keeping the PARS away

I work at a university. We are starting our 5th week of school, and people are dropping like flies. Students, faculty, you name it. It is a giant petri dish around here, and everyone is passing around one of several colds. We sometimes refer to this phenomenon as PARS (Purnell Acute Respiratory Syndrome - I work at the Purnell Center for the Arts).

The other night, I started to feel the beginnings of a backed up sinus. It was time to spring into action. I started to use a remedy that I have previously only used to get rid of a cold. So far it is doing a good job of keeping the cold from taking hold.

As a bonus, it's fun to gross out Mrs. Bob. She can't usually look in my direction when I use my neti pot. Aren't you lucky that she relented to take the video?

Enjoy. Yours in health.

It Worked!

I am happy to report that by midweek, I was no longer feeling the any of the head cold that was coming my way, and by now, on I feeel completely healthy.

I kept the PARS at bay, with a little nose pot full of salted water.
