– Funny, I don’t remember being absent minded.
– All reports are in. Life is now officially unfair.

Finally…Tips Rejected by Martha Stewart

Old telephone books make ideal personal address books. Simply cross out the names and addresses of the people you don’t know.

Avoid parking tickets by leaving your windshield wipers turned to fast whenever you leave your car parked illegally.

No time for a bath? Wrap yourself in masking tape and remove the dirt by simply peeling it off. Apply red nail polish to your nails before clipping them. The red nails will be easier to spot on your bathroom carpet.

Forget planting flowers – buy silk ones and avoid watering them.

To remember your family, request that at your death, instead of flowers or memorials, they make a monthly payment on one of your credit cards.
