How to get out of speeding tickets:

By keeping your car in park and taking a pic of the startup gauge sweep sequence?
 
Hang up your jeans by the back belt loop.

Ikea sells rails and hooks. Install rail on wall, hooks attach on back of belt loop and hank from rail.

1. Easy to rehang/reuse jeans
2. Easy to see all your jeans (may not be a problem for everyone.. but between adhd and having a lot of pairs I tend to forget what i have)
3. hanging them means no folding

I also have a rail with hooks for hats, scarves, gloves, sweaters.. basically things that I wear often and reuse between washes.

Was a good tip. Made a post to the lincoln forum that's gone unanswered now for a couple days. Might have to try this heh.
 
I'm going to get heckled by all the resident (cough) fitness experts here at WF, but I use this routine for my workouts.

15 minute, high intensity workouts. Even has a basic diet plan if you need. Works great for me. I workout on lunch 3x a week, med level cardio on some off days. First chapter, which is the philosophy so to speak, really stuck with me. End story I'm in the best shape of my life at 41 years old. Its a realistic, long term plan to not be a fatty.

Also if you are going to buy a clipper, upgrade to the WAHL Eclipse Sterling. Cordless + salon quality. I just replaced the battery and blades on mine after 4 years of heavy use. $75

I read about an article where a guy would take Sunday afternoons to do all of the housework, laundry, dishes, pay bills, and cook meals for the week, basically all of the knick knack shit that we spread out during the normal week. Another thing I do is use a slow cooker to have roasts or stews cooking while I do other shit.

That's pretty much what I do minus dishes, can't stand a sink full of dishes. Pay bills, clean house, laundry and cook for the week every Sunday.

Another one: Lay out whatever you need over the course of your day the day before. In the evening I put a pan and a pot with water on the stove to rock the morning oatmeal and eggs, lay out the plate, eggs, bowl, honey etc. so it's ready to go when I wake up and don't feel like groping for shit. Before I walk away from my desktop I lay out whatever windows I'll need first thing the next day. etc.

Get a sick juicer and forget about anything else for breakfast and lunch during the week. I wake up, throw about 4 different veggies and 4 different fruits into the juicer and I have breakfast and lunch done.

Lost about 5lbs from doing this for the past two weeks. I definitely don't go to the gym as much during the winter, so this is a big plus for me.

Shit, I thought everyone did this. Is everyone pussy enough not to wear their jeans a week straight, before washing?
 
If you need that check engine light cleared, hit me up. Got a reader bro.

Serious life hack [ame="http://www.amazon.com/INNOVA-3140-Diagnostic-Scanner-Vehicles/dp/B000R3SNJU/ref=pd_sbs_auto_22"]here[/ame].

$200 to never get fucked by a mechanic again. There's also one that just does OBI II + ABS stuff but I like running the diagnostics on old carbureted stuff and tuning myself so I bought the combo. It's awesome taking cars to dealership and being like, "it pulled these codes, here's the problem, don't run a diagnostics ($150+), just fix exactly this and nothing else". They hate me.

Agree that everyone should have a OBDII scanner, but you can get them for much less.

This one works great, and it's cheap. [ame=http://www.amazon.com/INNOVA-3030-Diagnostic-Reader-Vehicles/dp/B000EVYGQY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1354983177&sr=8-3&keywords=obdII]INNOVA 3030 Diagnostic Code Reader for OBDII Vehicles : Amazon.com : Automotive[/ame]
