But the sting of aftershave feels so good...

Then again, I only give myself a full shave every 1 to 2 weeks, so drying out my skin isn't a problem. I prefer just to grow a thin beard.

Know when not to do a job yourself. If it's a matter of getting a buddy to help you turn a 6 hour job by yourself into a 2 man one hour job; or if it's hiring the right person to do the job right, it's usually worth it.

Also, know when not to cheap out. For example, if you are building a fence don't buy the $2.50 regular boards instead of the $3.25 PT boards; because a few years down the road you'll be taking out the regular boards and replacing them anyways.

Yep Ken....I hate it when my boss thinks going the cheapest way possible will work in the long run.

It might not cost you more money at the moment...but down the road you'll probably be forking over some more dough just to fix it again.

You oughta know that when your wife finally tells you to get the F out of her life forever, that posting a message on your facebook profile lying about why it happened is going to get back to her and her friends, and you will be laughed at for hours.

OUCH sorry to hear that.

Umm. . . Now what can I tell people?

If you're starting to learn to swim I'd suggest getting in the habit of breathing every three strokes. It's hard to change after always doing two.

Just because you have a pirated copy of Photoshop and Illustrator on your computer, it does not mean you are a graphic designer.

Anti-perspirant works very well as Afterbite.

They are also great for removing bad smells/odors in your vehicle.
