Whatever happened to Dristan?

I was hoping for Nick Nolte.

Closets, under the bed, an attic, the garage... That’s what self-storage places are for, and why people end up forgetting about them. Just be careful not to park things in spaces that aren’t healthy for them, e.g. don’t leave boxes of books in the basement, garage, or barn. However, I’ve found that the purgatory…

A safer way is to let it cool a bit and then pour it into a clean, dry metal can. Keep the can out of the way until the grease solidifies.

Me too! And The Three Lives of Thomasina!

If you have a spare bed you can cover it with the extra blankets, quilts, and bedspreads, like a reverse Princess and the Pea.

Road Warrior! 

Squirrelling away some cash, like prepping in general, isn’t brain surgery and doesn’t have to be a drain on your ordinary money flow. You can do it $20 at a time; just have a designated place where you ‘ll remember where you put it. It’s advisable to use smaller bills rather than in hundreds, because even a merchant…

Helpful hint: do not watch Fritz the Cat while tripping.
