| FUN THINGS TO DO IN AN ELEVATOR |
|
Fun things to pass the time in an elevator : |
| |
Make race car noises when anyone gets on or off.
Whistle the first seven notes of "It's a Small World" incessantly.
Sell Girl Scout cookies.
Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask: "Got enough air in there?"
Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator. Wear yours upside-down.

Mosquito spray
I can't wait to try this in the summer!
I was at a deck party awhile back, and the bugs were having a ball biting everyone. A man at the party sprayed the lawn and deck floor with Listerine, and the little demons
disappeared. The next year I filled a 4-ounce spray bottle and used it around my seat whenever I saw mosquitoes. And voila! That worked as well. It worked at a picnic where we sprayed
the area around the food table, the children's swing area, and the standing water nearby.
 Hang a vinyl shoe bag on the back of your child's door to hold Barbies, Beanie Babies, toy cars or any small toy that has a habit of piling up in their room.
Clearing the dishes from your dinner table? Do it restaurant-style...Load everything into a big dishpan so that everything is cleared in one shot.
Hang a squeegee in your shower and teach your children and husband to wipe down the walls after they shower to prevent soap scum build-up.
When you break a light bulb in its socket, it can be very difficult to unscrew it for replacement. Try jamming a bar of soap, a large cork or a piece of raw potato in to the base of the bulb and then twisting it. The broken bulb should come out with no problem.
For hands covered with grease or paint, sawdust can work magic. While your hands are still wet, rub them with sawdust and watch them come clean before your eyes. It's safer and more economical than using a solvent or commercial cleaner.

NEVER TAP: |
A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters from a shop window.
For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said, “Look mate, don’t ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!”
The passenger apologized and said, “I didn’t realize that a little tap would scare you so much. ”
The driver replied, “Sorry, it’s not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver. I’ve been driving a funeral van for the last 25 years."
