Another Miraculous Product

I've been an advocate of vinegar as multi-use product for some time. The applications for vinegar around the house are numerous. This article from because you value your body lists 62 interesting uses.


Some of these which I particularly like are --

  • Remove stubborn coffee stains from cups and pots. Fill the cup with vinegar overnight, then rinse with hot soapy water.
  • Keep a garbage disposal clean and smelling fresh. Mix one cup of vinegar in enough water to fill an ice cube tray, freeze the mixture, grind the cubes through the disposal, and flush with cold water.
  • Prevent ice from forming on a car windshield overnight. Coat the window with a solution of three parts vinegar to one part water.
  • Prevent lint from clinging to clothes. Add one cup vinegar to each wash load.

Yokohama Tires

Yokohama Piece-of-Crap Tires

Eight months and 10,200 miles ago, I bought a new Suzuki Aerio SX AWD equipped with a set of P195/55R15 Yokohama Geolander tires.

Today (reminder: 8 months, 10K miles) I had to replace all four because they were worn nearly smooth.

I advise you, in my opinion, to never buy these tires. If you want an Aerio (by the way, a terrific little car), be sure to get some other sort of tire on it.
