• oxygen bars

  Because my grass allergy sometimes causes breathing problems when I run in the grass field, I cherish every breath that I take. Imagine paying for oxygen. Scented oxygen, to be exact. It's supposedly cleaner oxygen, but who knows. What a scam.

  This machine kind of looks like a kids' experiment.

  

  Basically, at your run-of-the-mill oxygen bar, you see several different tubes of brightly colored liquids and gases which are (I guess) oxygen gas and scents but look like diluted Kool-Aid (okay, this is far from ordinary). You pay for a certain amount of oxygen and then stick a tube against your nose (or up your nose? I don't want to know). Then, you breathe.

  These machines have been bothering me ever since I visited Vegas a couple of years back and saw these things everywhere. I guess some people dig this stuff, but I don't really see the point. Health benefits? I doubt it. Look at that stuff!
