I can usually get a few months of shaving from one blade. Try it. You’ll be surprised.

Does that mean I won't need the pyramid any more?

My ex-wife keeps a note pad by the phone and writes down the conversation of phone calls. There are reasons she’s my ex.

A sure cure for the hiccups:

Pinch your nose and drink a glass of water.

I works every time for me.

LOL

I’m guessing “check” or “money order”?

My wife would put toothpaste on the brush, run it under the faucet, then start brushing with the now-diluted toothpaste. That’s backwards. Rinse the brush first to get rid of anything it may have picked up, put the toothpaste on it,then brush.

If you have dogs or cats, leave their dry food in the foil lined bags it came in. In other words, don’t store in Ziploc bags or Tupperware. The foil lining keeps the food fresh and helps keep the intended oil in the food.

My dog’s vet told me that. I never even thought about why their food was in a foil lined bag but it made sense.

Ignore the whole stupid “life hack” thing. Really most of them involve hoarding trash on the off chance you might reuse it some day.

Dunno. I recommend it. Anybody got a Chuckles candy bar?

Squirt some lemon juice on cut avocado slices to keep them from turning brown.

I’m sure she did it just to vex you.

If you have heart burn at night, try sleeping on your left side. The way we are plumbed, sleeping on the right side puts acid at the valve that may be leaking.

It’s only stupid for those who are too young to have lived through the Great Depression.

No. It would still be stupid. Saving trash cause maybe it’ll be useful someday is dumb across the board.

After reading this I immediately went out and clipped a few sprigs of rosemary. They’re in the fruit bowl now. Haha! Thanks. House smells great, too.

I don’t understand how you can go opposite and not shave your arm, but sounds good as far as finding a way to make blades last.

Awhile back someone on FR advised using the rough white ceramic ring on the bottom of a ceramic coffee mug to hone your cutting knives. I tried it and it works great!

Oh, wait, I just figured out how to go the opposite direction without shaving.
