  • Sometimes it's best to lie

    Posted by Party Marty

    Be careful about asking your boyfriend or husband, "Does this make my butt look big?"  Because, unfortunately for BOTH of you, he's probably going to give you an honest answer. 

    --In a new survey, only 35% of men say they'd LIE.  The other two-thirds say they WOULD give an honest answer . . . although a lot of them would try to change the subject first.

     

    If you tell the truth it will be a long night!

     

     

  • Making Monday Better

    Four Ways to Make Mondays Suck Less

     

    #1.)  Dress Up.  You probably can't do anything about what you've got on TODAY.  But wearing your best outfit makes you more confident.  And just looking like you're ready for work tends to make you FEEL more ready for work.

     

    #2.)  Do Something Nice for Someone.  Or do something nice for the whole office, like bringing donuts to work.  Research has shown that one of the best ways to improve your mood is to make someone ELSE happy.

     

    #3.)  Prepare for Monday on Friday.  If there's something at work that you dread doing on Mondays, get a head start on Friday if you can.

    --That way you'll lighten your workload.  And you'll be able to relax all weekend, because you'll know you have an easier Monday than usual ahead of you.

     

    #4.)  Make a List of Things You're Excited for This Week.  It doesn't even have to be work-related.  Just write down three things you're looking forward to . . . like your favorite TV show, or having drinks with friends.

     

     

    --That way, you'll remind yourself of some GOOD stuff that's coming up, and you won't just concentrate on how awful Mondays are.

  • Things we have to explain to our kids

    Posted by Party Marty

    #1.)  Smoking and non-smoking sections in restaurants.

     

    #2.)  Why we used to buy maps, and how they were so hard to re-fold.

     

    #3.)  Taking a photo and not getting to see how it came out instantly.

     

    #4.)  Dialing star-69.

     

    #5.)  Taping a song off the radio so you could hear it whenever you want.

     

    #6.)  How the only way to get song lyrics was to hope the band or artist printed them inside the tape or CD liner notes.

     

    #7.)  How you used to have your friends' phone numbers MEMORIZED . . . and why you used to have to talk to their parents sometimes when you called them.

     

  • Save 105,000 dollars

    Posted by Party Marty

    According to a new survey, the average worker spends $11.84 every day on coffee, lunch, and snacks.  That comes out to about $2,800 a year, or almost $131,000 over the course of your career.  If you bring your lunch every day and drink free coffee, you'll save more than $105,000 in your career. If I saved $105,000, my wife and daughter would want to buy something that cost $106,000.

  • Get rid of the clutter

    Posted by Party Marty

    Here's an interesting technique you can use to DE-CLUTTER your place.  Just get rid of 10 things a DAY, for an entire year.  Throw them out, sell them, donate them, whatever . . . just get rid of them.  By the end of the year, you'll have 3,650 fewer pieces of useless junk in your house. I could probably do 15 a day.
