Grape Kool-Aid tastes like grape and will clean just about anything because it contains methyl anthranilate, which is a benzene derivative. It's also used as a metal erosion inhibitor in jet engine lubricants.

It looks like this, if anyone's sad enough to care ;)

Make sure you're wearing clean knickers. You never know when you'll be run over by a bus.

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

1. Budweiser beer conditions the hair

My grandma, in her days, already knew about the beer (its cosmetic use ;) )

I think it's well researched that beer can make people look better :lol:

hahahahaha :lol::lol: :thumbs:

Got paint stuck in your hair? Gasoline will take it out. I can speak from experience with that one.

NO SMOKING!!! :whistle:

Is there another ingredient in there? Otherwise it would just be a bunch of sugar and dry koolaid! Unless you mean use already made up koolaid......

20. Peanut butter - will get scratches out of CD's! Wipe off with a coffee filter paper

and if you use Peanut butter on a cd, get other cd and have a Peanut butter and CD Sandwich :lol::lol::lol:

Jiff mother's serve only the best Peanut butter and Cd sandwich :lol::lol:

I'd rather not smell like WD-40 ... I'll continue with my regular arthritis medication

YUMMY the great fresh smell of BEN GAY :dance::dance::lol::lol:

Another tip i learned working in the jewelry business: Got rings that are too tight to take off?? spray a little windex and the rings will loosen up!

Yes that is true. it is the silicon in the windex that makes them lose.

Bee stings/bug bites can be soothed by mixing spit (or water) and a little tobacco, and applying to the affected area.

(All good tips there brother!)
