Slurpees

     There are more than one ways to skin a cat, but there is only one proper way to get a slurpee from a gas station.  Slurpees contain air, which makes the slurpee less dense.  To get the most out of your slurpee you must expel this air leaving you in a flavored fizzy awesomeness.  First, put the lid on your cup to maximize your slurpee volume.  After filling your slurpee, let your slurpee sit for roughly 20 seconds.  Then, tap the bottom of the cup on the counter a few times.  This presses the slurpee down farther into the cup.  You will see that about half your cup is empty now because you compressed the slurpee.  Now, fill your cup again and repeat the steps.  Congratulations, you just got the most out of your slurpee.  Be aware of ugly stares from the 7 Eleven staff.

The Art of Digital Thievery

     Driving a Westy Bus is basically driving a house, but way better.  For instance, there is no homeowner's insurance.  And no lawn to mow.  And no little kids riding their bikes down your driveway.  But, by far, the best part of having a Westy is the free internet.  All that is needed is a laptop and a group of maybe four houses.  You can bet your bottom dollar that you can connect to an unsecured wireless network leaving you with free wifi.  Sure you look you creepy in a VW Bus sitting outside of someone's house stalking someone on facebook, but it's all in good humor.  Just a heads up- take off your mask when lurking for internet in a semi-stalker bus because sometimes grown-ups find that creepy. -VGT
