The bobbleheads of The Stones wash up nice and clean in soapy water and a good rinse. Mine keep getting dusty. Oh yeah, they're not in the boxes.

Also, boat shoes (Topsiders, Dock Sides, etc.) clean up nicely with Lemon Pledge. They'll look like new and smell like lemons.

What's yours?

Get an extra tension-type shower curtain rods, then when you need to do some hand washing or things that shouldn't go in the dryer, put the curtain rod in the middle of your bathtub wall so you can hang your clothes from coat hangers and the water stays in the tub. It also stores away in a corner, not taking up a lot of room like those clothes drying racks.

keep your pet chinchillas' water bowl under the bed - that way they keep the dust bunnies under control
(it is Stones related because everyone names at least one of their pet chinchillas Bianca)

Ladies..

if youve got a couple of useless "Beatles" Cds lying around, make a small hole in the outer edge, attach a paper clip, and hey presto - a set of shiny Pat Butcher style earings...

and the inner layer paper \ booklets can be used as "emergency toilet roll" in case you run out...

I have a freind who makes bowls/ash trays out of old records. you put them in the oven and it starts to melt. you fold the edges of it to make a bowl shape. you can use as ash tray. Or dish to keep candy in, or chips, pretzels, pop corn. I have one I use to store my wallet, keys ect. and another one that I keep filled with ludes.

"nice ashtray there - oh its an old original accetate of the stones from early 60s...worth about 50 grand..

Here's one for the ladies.

When you can't open up your bottle of nail polish, wrap a rubber band around it, that gives your hand something to grip on to (insert "i'll give you something to grip on to" comments here)

Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.

dish to keep candy in, <Sweet LPs>
use to store my wallet, <Bread LPs>
and another one that I keep filled with ludes <Motorhead LPs>

nice suggestions! I forgot to mention that the records are used are ones that are old, scratched up ones.

When you stash your dope, limit your hiding places to just one or two places. That way you don't spend hours looking for your stash you hid the night before when you were too wasted to remember. Keep it simple. Also it's best to hide the stuff somewhere up high, like in the ceiling for example, it's harder for dogs to smell it.........I mean, if you know anyone stupid enough to mess with dope in the first place.....I certainly don't condone it.....

Thanks, Lukester! To paraphrase Keith Richards - words of wonder!

Don't worry about clearing the grate out. You can always explain you're sniffing your father's ashes.

Not a good tip if speaking to your not yet deceased father I suppose...

Sure it does! I don't have to listen to my wife or son nag me!

Here's a household tip. Get a carbon monoxide detector. They are not required by law like smoke detectors (im my state anyway) so a lot of people might not have one. They can be bought for less than fifty bucks and may save your life one day. If you have a good relationship with your landlord like I have ask them if they will pay for it. My landlord did even though she wasn't required by law to do so.
