13 years of toenail clippings

[Soccerman06]

Anyone remember the Jay Leno episode where this kid came on and got brought a bunch of nails and asked for Leno's clippings? Seems familiar.

It's just keratin.

Cool! You could use them to make jello!! A little processing, add some sugar, add some artificial cherry flavoring, and bammm. Cherry Jello.

Haven't had jelly in years. Not quite what I was thinking of, to be honest. But yeah, you could...I guess.

I actually meant, it's only keratin, as in, why the hell would anyone want to buy something so plentiful and patently valueless, but hey. One man's trash, right?

IIRC, she tried to sell them a jarful of clippings and they turned her down.

Yep BUT they bought some of the completed art.....

I have washed every clipping as soon as it was clipped, and have put the larger ones in their own small baggie (Similar to the baggies you buy crack in).

:hmm:

Don't think I want to know what his other "too many collections" are.
