Driving Tips

Of all the things I've ever learned from my dad... I think his driving tips have been most useful. At least at the moment.

Tip 1:
If there is an Off Ramp... There is probably an On Ramp... and If there's an On Ramp... There's probably a Cop.

Tip 2:
Never drive a Red car... If you do... make sure you're not doing ANYTHING wrong.


Sooo the other day I was going to lunch. And as I pull onto the freeway. There's a cop in the little space between the pillar of the overpass and the lanes merging. He turns on his lights as I pass him and I'm like... "Crap.. what did I do?" then I see him pulling over the red car who was actually on the freeway and just passed both of us.

I never knew...

You learn something new everyday... Mostly it's that you're completely oblivious...

So I got this email today and decided to share.

I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Whoever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.

Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end. Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up.

I'm sharing this with my friends. I hope I'm not the only "dummy" that didn't know about this.
