Kudos to you for finding the strength to still stare at your screen. Doing so certainly doesn't help migraines any! Lots of rest is really the only surefire remedy for a killer headache.

If sprays don't work, you could always buy a fashionable cover for your backseat in lieu of the expense of replacing the whole fabric. You may even be able to find ones that match your car's interior closely.

Ugh, my hubby rarely if ever cleans our car, and it drives me nuts! I can understand not needing a car wash every single week, but every once in awhile would be nice. He is also oblivious to the dust that has accumulated on the dash and the dirt and other debris on the carpet. He wouldn't...

That doesn't sound like a good idea. You don't need to have access to Facebook in your car! Needless distractions are one of the top causes of accidents.

An old boyfriend of mine tried to teach me to drive stick once; it didn't work out so well! I imagine they are more "fun" to drive, but I prefer the safety to having one less thing to worry about while driving with an automatic.

I think certain breakfast foods are just better at a restaurant. Besides pancakes, waffles, coffee and bagels also come to mind as tasting better using professional equipment.

Motorcycles seem very impractical to me. Not only are you at a much great risk of death just for driving the darn thing, you have weather to contend with and a lack of space to carry any goods! I guess if you were a single bachelor without a lot of distance to cover, one would be okay...

That's ridiculous. You'd think they would be rewarding people for using electric, not punishing the public at large! Gas is a limited resource; using electric makes sense.

Does anyone else agree that the recommendation of "every three months or 3000 miles" when it comes to changing your oil is overkill? We change ours about once a year, and our car runs great.

We always buy used, so our cars are always kind of "old"! Our current car is a 2003 and runs great. It's never given us any problems. I've had a lot of issues with vehicles from '96.

How do you manage the dog hair that accumulates when your pet travels with you in the car? We have a blanket that we keep in the backseat that we vacuum and wash from time to time.

We often take our laptop when we travel and utilize the WiFi at airports and hotels, but for the most part, this device is a homebody.

Whether you're speeding in the first place is what is going to make you prone to speeding tickets. A red car may or may not catch a policeman's eye more readily. Radar guns are colorblind, though!

I suppose this is good news for the economy, but my household certainly isn't doing anything to contribute. We always buy used, and our current car is from 2003!

If you can't identify the problem as stemming from a pest, it sounds like it's time to switch to a better brand of backyard pool. Standalone pools are supposed to be convenient!
