OK,
I have made my hair pink, my shoes are pink, I wear pink clothes and now my nails are pink. Just how much more do I have to do to get the judges to notice our team spirit?!?!? NO!!! I am not donning the pink underwear! A man has to do what a man has to do!

Wrong one. That's the OTHER Billfred-is-Working-Way-Too-Much Rule. I think this is just repeated application of the Billfred-is-Working-Way-Too-Much Rule.

Holy cow, I screwed up. The whole thing slipped my mind entirely after last week and this week. (And nary a PM. I'm crushed. ;))

This will be done first thing when I wake up in the morning. We'll fix it up somehow.

I actually think it would make a great teambuilder. Let's see how many teams show up with fingernails painted in their team colors. And when someone asks you why your fingernails are pink, red, blue, green, purple, whatever, it gives yet one more opportunity to explain FIRST! :)

I would thing a different color for each nail would give a tie-dye effect, but here is an official tie-dye nail polish technique...

To create a "swirly, tie-dye" effect when painting, put one drop of a contrasting color of nail polish on wet polish and use the corner of a polish brush to swirl it. Be sure to wash the brush with nail polish remover before replacing it, or the first color will run into the other bottle.

Do you think this works for camo too? :rolleyes:

You can get creative, Al - paint the nails multiple stripes or alternate colors.
It's fun. Kind of like wearing rainbow-colored wigs..*cough*

absolutely for camo, Cynette, absolutely!
