Defying Gravity


Do you think four people can lift another with each of them using only two fingers to lift with? It can be done if you know how to defy gravity. The next time there are a bunch of you sitting around the living room bored to tears and can't possibly think of a thing to do you might try this. Have the dummy, errrum I mean the one to be lifted, sit in a straight backed kitched chair. The four smarter ones, errrumm I mean lifters stand two to each side of the dummy, errumm I mean liftee. All clasp your hands to gether with your fingers entwined and your two index fingers together and pointed straight out to show the lifting method. The two people at the dummy's back will insert their index fingers under the dummy's armpits and the other two insert their index fingers under the dummy's knee's. On the count of three everyone lift and you'll see it is not possible to lift the dummy. Ahhh but wait and I'll teach you how to defy gravity and make it possible. One person place their hand on top of the dummy's head palm down, the person next to him place one of his hands on top of the first peron's hand, the third person places one of his hands on top of the second persons hand and the fourth person places his hand on top of the third persons hand, then everyone repeats the procedure with the remaining hand. Rest your hands on the dummy's head, don't push down but don't try to hold your hand up either. Just let gravity control the amound of force your collective hands put pressure on top of the dummy's head. Prechoose a group leader and while your hands are resting on the dummy's head have the group leader look at a clock and time the hand resting event for two minutes and saying aloud, "When I say go we WILL all immediately go to our assigned lifting spots and we WILL lift this turkey off the chair with our fingers." When the two minutes are up and everyone quickly goes to their assigned lifting spots and everyone lifts at the same time you will find you have in fact defied gravity and the turkey will come right out of the chair!


ANT SPRAY
SAFEST~CHEAPEST~MOST EFFECTIVE


Take an empty spray bottle and add 6-8 drops (that will work fine, the more you put the quicker it works) of ANY liquid dishwashing soap and fill the rest up with ordinary tap water. You have just concocted the safest, cheapest, most effective ant killer you can find. When ants stream on your kitchen counter and you spray commercial ant sprays you not only have poison but a gasoline based spray to have to clean up. Give those pesky little suckers a couple of squirts of ogie's ant spray and watch them die before they have a chance to scream! No dangerous residue to clean up. Can be used anywhere even on people! Just please have the good sense not to spray it on electrical appliances!


ANT BAIT
SAFEST~CHEAPEST~MOST EFFECTIVE


The safest ant bait is grits. Yes grits, just like us Texas rednecks have for breakfast lunch and dinner. Pour some in a jar lid and set it under your kitchen sink or in a cupboard and let them come get all they want. In the yard just sprinkle some on the mounds, about a half to a full cup will do nicely. They carry it in the mound and they all eat it and the moisture in their bodys makes them swell up and explode at the seams. he he he he It's he safest thing for wildlife to keep birds from eating commercial bait and getting sick. Do your part, go natural.


ANT REPELLANT
In A/C Electrical Contacts


In Texas and some southern states we have problems with fire ants getting in the electrical contacts of well pumps and our air conditioners. They are attracted to the electomagnetic fields they generate. The fire ants get inside them and get fried and the contacts will burn out.

Take any regular dog flea repellant collar and MAKE CERTIAN you cut ALL the metal parts off of it and lay it right below the contacts. The fire ants won't cross it and will save you many $$$ for new contacts. A new one should be put in before spring starts and the ants start emerging. Another around August is a good idea too as they lose their strength with time.


RAT AND MICE BAIT
Safe and Economical


If you have mice or rat problems in the house, sheds or barns share your favorite soda pop with them, be nice.:) Take a small jar lid and fill it with Coca Cola or any carbonated soft drink and put it benind a couch along a wall or under the hot water heater in the bath room. Any where against a wall and under or behind something. Preferably where its dark. Mice dont travel in the center of rooms they always travel along the walls.

You must replace it daily. Its safe if pets or children get in it it won't harm them. Rodents don't have the ability to belch like other animals and the carbonation makes them swell up with gas and puts so much pressure on their internal organs they die.


Keeping Milk Fresh Hint


The best way to keep milk from turning sour and keep it fresh is to keep it in the cow. :-)
