| * Leak stain on ceiling.
Cut a piece of plywood into a square. Nail it over the stain.
Put a handle on it. Tell everyone it's the door to your attic.
(Not recommended for basement apartments).
* Ant invasion.
In a four-litre pail mix together two litres of water,
500 grams of abrasive cleanser and two tablespoons of dish
detergent. Find the spot where the ants are getting into
the house, pick them up one-by-one and drown them in your
pail. Or simply squoosh them with your shoes and use
the mixture to clean up the mess.
* Crayon marks on wall.
Grasp in right hand one paint scraper about 30cm long. With
left hand, grab rotten offspring who made the marks and
threaten to apply scraper to his video game collection if this
happens again. Break all his crayons.
* Doggie-doo on lawn.
Carefully measure one litre of unleaded gasoline into metal
container. Place container under coat and follow offending
dog and owner home. Burn down their house.
* Crabgrass.
In one corner of your lawn, assemble your mower, rake, shovel
and weed killer. Using right index finger, dial any asphalt
company. Have them come over and pave your lawn -- mower,
rake, shovel and weed killer included.
* Cigarette burn on rug.
Cut one lemon in half. Squeeze juice into large glass of gin
mixed 50-50 with tonic. Add ice. Drink enough glasses of this
solution until burn becomes blurry. Move couch over mark.
* Dirty paint brushes.
Soak brushes in pail of paint remover. Read paint remover
directions carefully. Notice they say solvent should not be
inhaled. Move brushes and can to airy place -- like the
backyard. Notice that solvent can kill grass. Move can and
brushes up off lawn onto suitable surface like, say, barbecue.
Now notice that solvent is highly flammable ...
* Annoying drips.
Don't invite them over anymore. |
