    Car maintenance...have the tire shop change over your tires to winter air in the fall. Winter air is denser than summer air and will give you better traction in the snow.

    As long as you're bringing the car in, anyway, you should have them check your directional fluid.

    Rapidly blinking turn signals indicate low blinker fluid levels.

    If you can sprinkle salt on a bird it will not fly away and you can pick it up.

    My mom told me this when I was little (specifically to sprinkle the salt on the tail) and I believed it. I can't recall if I tried it though.

    I had a co-worker once tell me that she planned to stay in shape by doing eye yoga. I totally went along with it.

    "Oh, swim out there and take one of the goose's eggs. They won't mind!"


    ^My stepfather actually told that to my stepbrother when he was about ten. For those of you that don't know... geese do mind.

    When meeting a woman for the 1st time, show interest in her. 1st thing you should do is ask her if she can touch her elbows behind her back.

    When lifting heavy objects, be sure to use your back like a crane, and always lift in a jerking, turning motion.

    No carbs after 4:57pm bro or you will get fat literally over night. Oh and if you don't neck a protein shake within 32.5 seconds of finishing a workout, your muscle will all turn into fat and all your friends will hate you.

    @brita22 how is that bad advice? I do that at least once a week :blush:

    Do you also check headlight fluid level? If so, which fluid do you reccomend? I hear halogen is the best...

    Halogens don't use fluid, they use a dihydronous gel.

    For the record - I do most maintenance on my own car...

    Good for you for doing maintenance yourself, that is a rare commodity these days. I ran a specialty shop (classic mustangs) for 13 yrs and always took the time to share with and educate anyone interested.

    Now if I can only find that missing "710" cap that goes in the valve cover...

    Most muffler shops are rip-offs. They always try to sell you a new muffler when all you need is new muffler bearings.

    Losing 3 engines on an airliner while in flight is no big deal, the black box will let the mechanics know where to find the plane and fix it in flight

    Chicks dig long facial hair. So let your nose hair grown until you can braid it.

    If someone calls you with a free vacation, make sure to have your bank card ready for the refundable deposit. How often do you get a chance to go to Mexico???
