I've got psoriasis on my hands. Wearing rubber gloves when washing the dishes and disposable vinyl gloves when cleaning helps -- up to a point. I still need to moisturize. I sometimes use a prescription moisturizer called Lac-Hydrin. It's actually the most effective moisturize I've ever used...

Hi Steve, I'm in Hoboken. I've been here all of my life, so the City has literally always been part of my life. In my younger days, we went there with my mom. (Don't tell anyone, but my friends and I started sneaking into the City when we were 10 years old. We took the PATH trains, because...

The JC Penny on 33rd street opened where Gimbel's used to be. (I miss Gimbel's, but I digress.) Gimbel's morphed into Manhattan Mall, which was anchored by A&S and then by Stern's. When Stern's closed, the mall was reconfigured and became much smaller. JC Penny occupies the lower levels of the mall.
