2006aug28. And now, my favorite part about writing this thing ... HOUSEHOLD TIPS!
I sometimes have a problem with stuck jar lids. I don’t like the hot water solution, it takes forever to get hot water out of my sink and it seems, in general, like a waste of water. So. There is this solution which I’ve never tried. I didn’t know about it at the time, so what I did was take my trusty tape gun, pulled off a piece roughly the size of the circumference of the jar lid, and taped it all around on the side so there was a bit of tape sticking over the top, sticky side on the lid. It was like magic, I tell you, then I got my household hints show that ran for three years in most major cities until the accident. You’ve probably seen it on youtube. The lawyers tell me it’s “fair use” because it’s educational, but you know people are just watching it to see the carnage and the pretty ambulance lights.
Also there is a feed now. It is here. It is “provisional” because the URLs have a problem sharing space with the rest of the text. I will get back to fixing it sometime soon. Wait, I mean it’s in “beta.” There. Now you cannot complain. If you don’t know what I’m talking about go to bloglines and sign up, it makes keeping up with your favorite websites much easier. I mean, those with feeds ... [looks down nose at non-feed websites] But if you think about it, really hard, Cardhouse has probably set a record for the weblog that has been around the longest without a feed. And this record will never be broken! HUZZAH!
