ASCI around the house

43 folders found an old ASCI file, with helpful tips for around the house.
The file comes from an old BBS. Remember those? Pre-internet. I remember spending hours surfing various BBS’s in the Dallas area on my 24k dail-up.
Oh the memories.

  • A Tea Party for Windows – Leftover tea makes a super window and mirror cleaner–the stronger the tea the better.
  • Silence! – A squeaky floor is usually caused by two or more boards rubbing against each other. Silence the noise by sprinkling talcum powder over the boards and sweeping it into the cracks.
  • Make Your Own Cleaner – Here’s a homemade formula for window cleaner that cleans away stubborn spots. Mix two cups of kerosene into a gallon of warm water. When you wipe the glass, the kerosene leaves an invisible film.

    My friend, Tim, from UMHB has put together a new website to keep people updated on his plans to go to India this year.
    It’s not mentioned on the site, but he’s plugging a new t-shirt he designed on myspace.

    Hey guys, I’ll make this quick…I’m going to India this summer and I’m not good at asking for money so I thought, well people buy clothing anyways, so why not combine a natural event of shopping for clothes with helping someone go on a Mission Adventure Course thing to India. So here’s what I did, I designed this shirt and am selling them for $15. So if you want one, go to www.helptimgo.com and click on India on the map, then go to donation and scroll down to make a donation. Simply do a paypal donation of $15 (or more if you so choose) then shoot me an email at timothyivey@yahoo.com with your size and address and the shirts should be in in a couple weeks. I know that’s kind a long process but since I don’t have an online store that’s the only way I could do it…thanks guys…

    So check it out, it’s a cool looking shirt for a good cause.
    And don’t forget, revenue from all the advertising on this site goes towards my trip to Nigeria in October, including revenue from all shirts purchased at Randomshirts.com (as long as you follow the links from this site).

    My Bright Idea – Scrubs

    Hey, I’m very interested in finding out what the final song on tonight’s episode of, NBC’s sitcom Scrubs was.
    The show was My Bright Idea where Turk finds out about Carla’s pregnancy before he did.
    I think I’ve heard it before but didn’t recognize it. It mentioned Jesus and said something about lifing up my hands.
    Any ideas?

    EDIT: Just found this cool website: http://scrubs-tv.com/music.html. Apparently it was a song by Kutless. Sweet. Gotta love Christian artists getting some love on secular TV.

    Complete Restoration

    National Community Church recently completed the complete rehabilitation of an old diner in D.C. for a new coffee house and church location.
    They’re getting great word of mouth advertising, but are also running the above ad in the April issue of the Hill Rag. The Hill Rag is the Capitol Hill newspaper.
    I love this idea, I love the concept and I love the design and rehabilitation.
