Laughter is the best medicine - so if you are in need of a pick-me-up tonic then prepare for a fit of the giggles. I wish I could say I wrote this but 'fraid not. They were sent to me by e-mail. I just had to share with ye' all...
Amazingly Simple Home Remedies & Household Hints!
If you're choking on an ice cube, simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat and hey presto! The blockage will instantly remove itself
Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold the veggies while you chop away
Avoid arguments with females about lifting the toilet seat - use the sink
For high blood pressure sufferers - simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in you veins, (remember to use a timer)
A mouse trap placed on top of your alarm clock will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button
If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you'll be afraid to cough
You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and duct tape, If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
Remember - everyone seems normal until you get to know them
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem
And finally a thought for the day...Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs
Breaking News in Blogland!!!!: Angie, my techno-phobe sister, has just left her first independant post on her own blog, "The Old Schoolhouse" on sidebar right hand side....I have been ghostwriting her blog for months and I'm knackered!) It is also a bellylaugher. Please, please leave a comment to encourage her to more hilarious ramblings, I know the stories she has to tell ...and they are well worth reading....but don't tell her I sent ye'...Pam (technophonic sis of technophobic Angie)
That was great! I happen to live by the WD-40 and duct tape rule. I just thought everyone did.
