Need to De-tattoo? Get Some Credit in the Straight World

There's no shame in having a punk-rock past (or present, actually). But unkempt dreadlocks, body art, and piercings may stop being so cool when it's time to get out and find gainful employment. If you're thinking of suiting up to pay some bills, here are a few ways to look more Mad Men, less Warped Tour.

Concerned about that tattoo of the unicorn smoking a hookah on your shoulder? Look no further than The Wrecking Balm Tattoo Removal System ($149.95), which promises to fade away your ink or your money back.
For those who thought those rubber ear spacers were a good idea, the EarLift Invisible Lobe Support Solution ($7.80) can help. A hypoallergenic gel disc sits on the back of your earlobe to provide support and erase the evidence. (I saw Ms. Jay use these on an episode of Tyra, and it totally worked.)
While neat dreadlocks (think Whoopi Goldberg) look professional and cool, the bead-adorned, I-am-a-Korn-groupie dreads might not fly in an office setting. But the Knotty Boy Emergency Dreadlock Remover Kit ($25) detangles even rock hard 'locks using - you guessed it - hempseed oil.

It might be time to send a care package to those members of the class of '08 who are just getting back from Burning Man and need their looks to be as polished as their resumes.

Last year we had the Grey's Anatomy musical episode, and this season it's the alternate-reality episode. That's right: as Meredith ponders on the veracity of the phrase "meant to be," we get to see what could have been - or in this case, what was always destined to be. Though this is a filler episode if I ever saw one, it's still pretty fun to see the characters go down different paths (well, except for Jackson, who pretty much stays the same).

What we're treated to is a preppy-pink Meredith, a geeky Karev, and an even edgier Yang just to name a few. There are also plenty of shout-outs to characters from past seasons, like Izzie, George, and Burke. Ready to break down all of the differences? Just
