Home remedies

AMAZING, SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES:

1. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE
ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP.

... 2. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY
USING THE SINK.

3. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR
A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE
A TIMER.

4. 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.

5. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL
BE AFRAID TO COUGH.

6. 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.

7. IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

THOUGHT for the day: SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES - NOT REALLY GOOD FOR
ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN THEY'RE PUSHED DOWN
THE STAIRS

SOME ADDITIONAL ADVICE:
NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, TAKE A LAXATIVE AND SLEEPING PILLS ON
THE SAME NIGHT


MERRY CHRISTMAS!

"6. 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."

The motto I live by, how did you know?

Thanks for the giggle today.

I used to have a t shirt the front said, "I am MALE and I can fix anything"
The back said " Where's the Duct tape"

So funny! But I'd add the word "maybe" to the end. We've all hit something electrical (like a motor or a TV) and somehow got it working!

Item#2 sounds interesting but the plumbing under there looks like only 1 1/2" or so...

The use of a hammer seems to be very prevelant. I have been told by no less than 2 "rv repairmen" that when step is not working take a hammer and tap on the motor. (so i'm supposed to jump out get the hammer out of basement, crawl my petit body under the rig and tap on motor. Being careful not to hit wrong thing or bust knuckles. then crawl back out and try the step. if it works great if not...................

I guess you are all of the "Modern RV'er" types. No one mentioned "baling wire"

Be carfull it maybe pot medal.

If you hit just about anything on your R.V. with a hamer it will crack or break.
The motor under the step is pot medal and so is the arm that pushes it out and in.
Believe me I had to replace one my self.
Just a thought.
