was at bed bath and beyond looking for foot balm and two girls were trying to help me and suggested "bag balm" and the other nodded. they had no idea what it was and I told them it's for men and "sports" activities ... but I didn't get into details. they were cute though I would have loved to if we were in a bar

The last thing I want is a "rubbery saddle...."

I've been battling saddle soreness for a bit and have noticed that, when using "taint butter" (I should call it margerine...because it taint butter....), most of it ends up softening the leather on my San Marco Rolls. This didn't happen back in the days when I could afford a real chamois. The new "breathable" and absorbant chamois just suck up buttloob, no matter where you apply it...skin or chamois. Maybe I should get my crotch coated with Teflon.....
I think I'll try a new saddle instead.

I have to look for Bag balm when I'm @ B,B,&B next time.
Saw a product called Monkey/Munkey Butt @ the local Pharmacy. It's just glorified Baby powder/Talc powder.

Every pharmacy has it, its lanolin, used on farms to reduce soreness of the "utter? (sp) used by people as suntan lotion, chamois butter (like down under) etc...stuff is good and cheap.
Probably a great cream to use on these pesky leather saddles( brooks) to break them in

I see what you did there, and you're right. Bag balm is for cows udders.
