Chelsea,

I think [i]Merle Norman[i] must be a franchise. Where I live they are mostly gone, too. I did go to one here about a year or so ago, and the person working there was some surly kid. I don't know why people invest in businesses and then leave them in the hands of people who don't know what they are doing.

Not only was the advice good at the one in TV, I really had fun. They were talking about how they needed to get different mirrors because the ones they had were on stands that were too short. (Women of a certain age do not want to look DOWN into a mirror. That's for sure.) I hope they replaced those short-stand mirrors. They were planning to do so immediately. The owners were so nice - from the Midwest, I think. :bigthumbsup:

(Oh, no. I just looked at Preview and realized this whole damned thing is in italics. I don't even care anymore. I am not going to try to fix it. I am going to bed.)
