I still am amazed by user comments and find them worth mentioning more than the news they're commenting on.  Here's a guy who was trapped in the Hotel Montana in Haiti. He used his iPhone first aid app to treat his fractured leg.  

Pocket First Aid & CPR

My husband's favorite joke these days is to blame it on the bear. Did someone fart? That was a bear. And so forth (it goes over big with the under 12 set, don't knock it! But in case you were wondering if the bear really did do it, check the bearcam!

Comment of the day for    Ex Officio boxer briefs.

titled “Heaven for the boys”:

“I sweat more than pretty much anyone I know. I’m fit, young, and active, but I sweat like a 1000lb man on the treadmill. I used to always get so annoyed that I couldn’t find boxers that didn’t get soaked after the first ten minutes of a car ride (yes, I sweat even from driving). These boxers are everything everyone says they are. Not only do they keep you dry for days on end, but they are extremely comfortable. Some people have said that the crotch is too big. I disagree. It is tight in the right areas, but they leave a loose “pouch,” if you will, so your can have a comfortable resting place for your boys. I wish I could offer some constructive criticism for the construction of these boxer briefs, but I can’t. They’re really that perfect.”

Mary Moppins Mop Head

Floors: Rinse a hand size towel under the faucet. Use heavy weight terry cloth towels for floors. Wring out excess moisture. If cleaning a large floor area two towels speeds cleaning. Place the towel over the mop head then press it down. As you lower the mop to the floor, pull the handle back just a bit so the towel swings under the mop head.

Hot water only, no cleaners. It’s just a hard foam tube with velcro on it; swivel base. It works really really well. Better than my McGyvered Broom with Towel and Rubber Bands, and I thought that was pretty good too.

How easy is that?
