How Can We Cut Costs Without Bleeding?

November 21st, 2008 by kphirst | No Comments | Filed in Humor

One way to cut the cost of living is to cut the amount of electricity we use. A brick, the box that’s attached to a power cord, consumes electricity even when the laptop, cell phone or other piece of electronics isn’t plugged into it. Televisions and cable boxes use power even when they are turned off and a big screen TV can use as much power as a refrigerator. Then there’s that innocent-looking, electric toothbrush. Leaving that plugged in uses two watts of electricity. That may not seem like much, but it could be more than is used by the bathroom lights. To plug in on electricity savings we have to unplug.

July 9th, 2008 by DuncanGelby | No Comments | Filed in Parenting

So many parents today mistakenly believe that disposable diapers are the best, indeed the only, diapering choice for their baby. But, not too long ago cloth diapers were the only option. Parents used them with no problem. Here is a look at why cloth diapers are a better choice than disposable diapers.

Disposable diapers have chemicals in them. They are treated to make them super absorbent, but these chemicals against your baby’s skin 24 hours a day for the first two and a half years of their life cannot be good. Cloth diapers are made of fabric that is not treated with chemicals that could be harmful. This makes them a healthier choice.

Is It Murphy’s Law Or Me?

April 9th, 2008 by kphirst | No Comments | Filed in Humor

I admit it. I’m mechanically challenged. What I know about cars is you start them with a key and stop them with breaks. One of the first cars I drove was my mother’s Thunderbird. Today’s cars have mechanized voices that tell you what to do. My mother’s Thunderbird had dashboard lights that were meant to tell me what to do. It was a much simpler system, but a much more expensive one. It cost over $5,000 to change a burnt-out, oil light. Of course, that included the cost of replacing the engine I’d burned out.
