Amazingly simple home remedies

This was one of those emails that just tickled me with its simple brilliance and I decided to post it here rather than send it around.

1. If you're choking on an ice cube, simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat. Presto! the blockage will instantly remove itself.


2. Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold the vegetables while you chop.


3. Avoid arguments with the females about lifting the toilet seat ~ use the sink.


4. 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.


5. 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 ~ Jamie needs to do this. He forgot to set his alarm for work on Friday morning and even insomniac Me did not wake until 5:30 something when he had to be at work at 5:45!


6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives ~then you'll be afraid to cough.


7. 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.


8. Remember ~ everyone seems normal until you get to know them.


9. 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 pushed down the stairs.
