    Why worry only about your horrible hallway, how about your horrible house and horrible lawn? I say, some gasoline, matches, and a good insurance policy can set you on your way to a whole new non-horrible existance.

    What the government food pyramid does not show is that cannibalism is actually one of the healthiest diets around, as well as one of the tastiest, so I would suggest starting with that annoying neighbor whose dog craps on your lawn every morning.

    How do I lower my cholesterol?

    Through concentration, like Dwight Schrute does.

    What should I do about Amazon taking forever to deposit payments into my checking account?

    Threaten to burn more of their rain forests if they don't hurry up!

    What would be the best way for me to actually win in a tournament?

    Create your own tournament, post it on Fred with preregistration only being available between 2:00am and 2:59am on the spring date of daylight saving change, and make sure to register yourself when you create the event. Voila - instant winner!

    How do I get from here to eternity?

    That would depend on the durability of the woodchucks teeth now, wouldn't it? I'd say 5 cubic metres, give or take.


    What would it take to have a certain e-mail replied to?

    Threats and stalking behavior are a good option.

    What do you say when you meet someone in person for the first time, when you've only talked to them online before?

    Well, I would start by packing your bag, then your car, then making sure you have enough gas, getting in the car, driving to the competition, then making sure you are registered, and getting dressed and warming up.

    Oh wait, what if you aren't driving? ......... I have no clue then.



    How do I get out of the stupid "pool party" my wife's organization is throwing tonight, and stay home and watch preseason football?

    Break all the cues, hide all the balls, rip the felt, and stuff dirty socks into the pockets.

    How will I manage to keep up on f.net when school starts up and I actually have things to do during the day?

    Skive off going to classes, and sleep in for work shifts.

    Oh, wait, that's advice for me.


    How should I deal with having to write 15+ page papers this term?
    (I assume my psychology courses will be that intense.)

    Talk to Elon1990 on AIM and use him as your psychological profile person, I'm sure it would be terribly interesting!

    How am I going to deal with having to give up 16, SIXTEEN, of my Saturdays in a row, teaching a high level computer graphics class... At 9 in the flippin morning!??? *whimper* It's gonna put a strain on my competition attendence.

    I would suggest subcontracting the local Kinko's front desk clerk to teach it for you. Their technical expertise is second to none.

    How do I keep my tee shots from slicing?

    Develop a hook... or give up golf to spend more time fencing.....

    How do I quit going to work, but maintain my current standard of living?
    Why sabre? Because you don't take heads with the point.

    Give up golf? Are you kidding? What else do I do between summer nationals and the first tournament of the year? You've never been addicted to anything, have you? Oh wait, this is f.net.....

    Ok - you just have to buy lots and lots of the "work from home and make millions in real estate" tapes that you can find on infomercials. Buy as many as you can, because you need to develop your own system based off of all the others. Synthesize your idea from the masses you have bought, sit back, let the millions roll in, and then sell your idea on your own informercial. Its foolproof, and only takes 30 to 90 days, YMMV.

    How do I fit both my golf clubs and my fencing bag into the trunk of a new Ferrari?

    Steal your boss's savings.

    Errr edit: Donate your new Ferrari to me and buy a bigger car.

    How do I get the perfect job after I graduate?

    Give up on your hopes and dreams and realize that you're destined to become a manager at Starbuck's before you leave this earth.

    How do I move up in the company, without having to put in a lot of time?

    Go out tonight, get really drunk, get caught DWI, then call and tell them you can't come because you can't drive for six months....

    How do I find the semi-perfect lover?
