On a humorous note for chapped lips, a joke I heard:
A salesmen was driving through the countryside and stopped to relieve himself by a tree. While there he noticed a farmer plowing with a mule on a hot Summers day. Every now and then the farmer would stop the mule, wipes its arse with his hand and then run his finger over his lips. The salesmens curiosity would not let him leave without finding out why? He approached and asked the farmer, who replied: "keeps my lips from getting chapped". The salesman asked if there was some medicinal quality to be found in the sweat on a mules arse, the farmer replied: "Nope but it cuts down on lickin' your lips!"
In the time before industrial revolution, we lived simple but somewhat short lives. Now we live much more complex and longer lives. Our deaths have also become longer and more complex...
