AIR BAG ALERT!

Here’s a driver’s precaution. If you have a car with air bags, make sure you drive with your hands on the RIM of the steering wheel, not in the center of the wheel. Severe injuries have occurred when air bags deploy knocking your hands into your face. For more safety info, check the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website nhtsa.gov.




A FOG-FREE BATHROOM?

Everyone likes a nice warm shower. But it can be annoying when you look into your bathroom mirror and you feel like you’ve been time-warped into foggy old London!

So here’s a handy tip to keep that annoying fog off your bathroom mirror. Simply moisten the corner end of a bar of soap, and rub the soap on your mirror. After the soap has been applied, wipe the mirror with a dry cotton towel. Presto! No more foggy mirrors.

EASY ENERGY SAVING TIPS

If you have Venetian or other horizontal blinds in your home, did you know that the direction of the blinds can directly affect the heat and energy loss?

Believe it or not, there is a right way and a wrong way to slant the blinds during the colder months.

During cold months, the horizontal blind’s slats should be slanted from the indoors to the outdoors (up). Plus, make sure your horizontal blinds are fully lowered so they touch the windowsill. Slanting the blinds this way will trap the cool air between the window and the blinds and will keep your room warmer.

Do just the opposite for warm months. Slant the blinds from the outdoors to the indoors (down).




“The history of our race, and each individual's experience, are sown thick with evidence that a truth is not hard to kill and that a lie told well is immortal.” (Mark Twain)

A THOUGHT FOR THE MONTH...

“What life means to us is determined not so much by what life brings us as by the attitude we bring to life; not so much by what happens to us as by our reaction to what happens.”
Lewis Dunning




ARE TWO REALLY BETTER THAN ONE?

“How was your golf game dear?” asked Jack’s wife. “Well, I was hitting it pretty well, but my eyesight’s gotten so bad that I couldn’t see where the ball went.”

“You’re 75-years-old,” admonished his wife, “why don’t you take your brother Scott along?” “He’s 85 and doesn’t even play golf,” protested Jack. “But he’s got perfect eyesight and can tell you where the ball went,” his wife pointed out.

So the next day Jack teed-off with Scott watching. Jack swung and the ball disappeared down the fairway. “Did you see it?” asked Jack. “Yep,” answered Scott. “Well, where is it?” yelled Jack peering off into the distance. “I forgot!”
