The area code appears to be 623. Two of the NNX codes (first three digits ) appear to be 975 and 583...but there are many many more.

I found this out by checking online info for J smith in surprise arizona I figured every town has a smith. Surprise! They only have 2!

but when you check for SMith you get lots of NNX's.

Try HERE to see some of them.

I went a different route, and looked up the area code for Surprise, AZ. And I got This result. Haven't been able to find a list of prefixes yet though.

I didn't have any luck with the bottle, but I did find this out:

If you enjoy porn-star secrets, however, you might find it interesting to learn that in the "early days" of modern explicit films -- the 1970s -- Tame Creme Rinse was often splashed on the chests of eager, squirming partners who were busily acting out their excitement over the male sexual prowess this fluid was supposed to represent.

Who: to order your rpessure-reducing pillow, Miles Kimball has it in stock. If the link doesn't work, click here and enter Item Number 699637.

Julie: Surprise, AZ is in Maricopa County, and according to The White pages the Area Code is 623. Prefixes for Surprise, include, but are not limited to: 214, 215, 266, 322, 528, 544, 546, 556, 566, 583, 584, 584, 594, 694, 695, 815, 875, 939, 972, 974, 975, and 977

KayKay: The original Tame Creme Rinse was sold in a white, urn shaped bottle, like this one:

Kaykay: So, what are we having for lunch?

Who: Your pillow was easier, I must admit. I was leafing through the Miles Kiball catalog, and there it was.

As for Google, I have become very good at finding information with the program. But remember, I was trained to research and ferret out information.

I have a dumb question. When I first started using a keyboard instead of a typewriter, I was shocked...shocked I tell you!...to find that there was no way to make the cents sign.

Does anyone know why they left off the cents sign when they made keyboards?

Mary, I'm not sure why it was left off the keyboard as a standard key. There are ways to access it since they do have the symbol in the extended character set. Try holding the Alt key and type 0162 on your keypad. Then release the Alt key. You should see this: ¢ displayed.

I imagine it was a senseless centsless oversight?

I've heard of anger management, pain management, etc. Is there any such thing as grief management?

I've heard of grief counseling, not sure if that would be the same thing.

I just googled "grief management" and there is such a thing. I hope you can find the support you need, Twinkie.

Thanks, Mak. I'm going to start looking in this area to see if there is such a thing here. I'll also ask my doctor. She should know. Thanks again!

Well, here I go again asking dumb questions.......

About 20 or so years ago, there was a product to help stop nail biting. It was in a bottle like nail polish, and it was bitter to the taste. I used it myself to stop biting back then (after biting my nails for the first 20-some-odd years of my life). Now, for some reason, I've recently taken it up again. All I need is that stuff to put on my fingers to gently remind me not to put my fingers in my mouth again. Once the nails grow out again, I'll be fine. But, the last couple of weeks, I seem to not be able to do it.

I Googled variations of "nail biting" and cures and stuff, and came up with a cream in a jar that's 12$. That's pretty darn steep for me. Can't find the nail polish version in the stores. Did they stop making it?

Anyone have a home remedy?

I'm so embarrassed!
