    Dash cams

    I've pretty much decided to get one, but my head is swimming from reading details & user comments - mostly 4 wheelers. Anyone have advice on brands, features, installation? I don't want all the bells & whistles, but not the el cheapo version, either - midrange would be about right, I think...

    Frozen locks

    The round locks are prone to holding water, which makes them tough to open when frozen. Wilson to the rescue! Just cut a slice in a tennis ball, it slips over the lock and keeps the water out. Plus, it looks a bit silly, and I like that too. ;)

    Blame it on Leo

    If you pay for a prescription,

    This site is a blessing: About GoodRx I found it awhile ago, but didn't want to share if I hadn't checked it myself. Today, my $76 prescription cost $55, so I can vouch for it. Even if you only pay a few dollars copay, think about comparison shopping your prescription, and filling it at the...

    If you like things clean, but cleaning them, not so much

    Then you will just love Jeff Campbell! About Us! I've been a fan for many years, and the thing I like best is how unusual it is to find a book that sells products, but also explains how to make your own, if you would rather. IOW, the book wasn't written to sell products, but to help solve...

    Unknown laws are everywhere!

    A recent post mentioned using hazard lights to warn of slowing traffic ahead. That's something I've never felt right doing, for reasons cited in the article linked, so I've always 'flashed' the brake lights instead by tapping them. I had no idea one could be ticketed for using flashers in a...
