Oldiesmann: Interesting to see they're bring Wilbur Wilkin back from the dead again. I remember them making a big deal of it when they suddenly decided he was Jughead's cousin years ago - only for him to vanish again, much like Jellybean

Oldiesmann: I miss the days of floppies with there or four new stories each. I'll take that over digests any day

Tuxedo Mark: How absolutely pathetic. Five items, three of which are entirely reprints. Only two new 5-page stories for the entire month. Only two of the four "main" digests. And the story in the girls' digest features Bingo and Pureheart.

I'm hoping there's a member here who fancies him or herself a "soap expert" and can enlighten me on all eighteen possible uses for this product.  Thank you in advance.


No real expertise required, Steve -- just about a minute to google it.

I have succeeded in creating a discussion about body wash, which I now love. I am happy beyond belief!  :smitten:

I don't know much about this, but I've heard some people don't like it because they think Google collects data on them or is tracking them somehow (something like that, I'm not exactly clear on the specifics). All I know is that it seems to get more relevant results than other search engines I've used. In this case, after I'd typed in "Brommer's soap", one of the half-dozen suggested searches was "18 uses", so I went with that, and sure enough, found the info in the first result that I clicked on.

I still remember when Yahoo was all the rage. Those were the days! :D

Not too many Archie related bath/shower themed covers that I know of.

Singin' in the bathtub
Sitting all alone
Tearing out a tonsil
Just like a baritone

Never take a shower
It's an awful pain
Singing in the shower
Is like singing in the rain

Oh, there's dirt to be abolished
But don't forget one thing
While the body's washed and polished
Sing, brother, sing!

You can yodel opera (yodel-ay-dee-oh!)
Even while you scrub
Everybody's happy while singin' in the tub

I'm forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air

You can be Sinatra
Soakin' as you croon (shoo-bee doo-bee doo)
Hitting all the high notes
Never out of tune

Singin' every number
From your favorite show (Oklahoma!)
Droppin' down from forte
To pianissimo

I'm singing in the bathtub
Happy once again
Watching all my troubles
Go swimming down the drain

Singing through the soap suds
Life is full of hope
You can sing with feeling
While feeling for the soap

Oh! A ring around the bathtub
It isn't so nice to see
But a ring around the bathtub
Is a rainbow to me

Reaching for a towel
Ready for a rub
Everybody's happy
While singing in the tub

I just found this

I have seen a story or 2 where Betty doesn't get any hot water in the shower because she running out to get the phone. Which makes her mad.

I guess I read the story when she didn't hear the phone ring.

Not sure what type of soap Veronica's using here. 

From a 1946 daily:

A boy and his dog.   :smitten:

Here Jughead is apparently using a Dove Pink Beauty Bar.

That's odd, since most of the gags seem to involve how difficult it is for Jughead to get Hot Dog to take a bath!

Yeah, it's backwards.  Maybe Hot Dog was swayed by the prospect of sitting in the People's tub and using a fresh scented, invigorating body wash?

Here Betty introduces "Bath Crystals".  Adding a new wrinkle to one's bathing experience.

Clean body, dirty mind. She hasn't even gotten into the bath yet, and she's already thinking about SIN:o
