I don't know. I don't have to worry about it, though.

One of the joys of being devastatingly good looking.

They're not, AFAIK. (Ask a doctor) But I have a goal of keeping liquids out of my nose, not pouring them in. It makes my eyes water just to think about it.

Or it could be my allergies/cold. But still.

A word of advice: don't ever share a small condo with someone who does it on a regular basis. There is no escape from the sound of someone else clearing out his snotways.


As far as the original question...Fraternity men like food. Could you bake him some cookies and stuff that he could share around? Also, depending on your campus traditions, maybe you could get him something like a cap with your letters.

I'd stay away from stuff like photo albums and shit like that...boys don't care about that stuff. Surprise.com is a great site to browse for gift ideas.

My doctor actually gave me one last year after two sinus infections. She said she didn't want me on antibiotics again, and handed me a lovely red neti.

For two days, I used it and swore at it. Now I swear by it.

That said, I've never met a man who couldn't use a personal hair trimmer.

Slight hijack, but neti pots are fantastic. I use them anytime I have a sinus issue and they work like a champ. I used to get sinus infections several times a year, now when I feel one coming on, I just bring out the neti and use it several times a day and the infection goes away on its own.
