It’s always nice to learn new things. Today I learned that Tiger Balm smells like Vicks Vapor rub and that’s kinda spiffy. I love that smell. The other thing I learned is if you sneeze while rubbing Tiger Balm on your shoulder, a few minutes later you will realize that you rubbed your eyes after that wonderful sneeze. Brilliant!
