PERSONAL HYGIENE Unlike clothes and shoes, a toothbrush should never be a hand- me-down item. If you have to vacuum the bed, it's time to change the sheets. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this is a job that should be done in private using one's OWN truck keys. Plucking unwanted nose hair is time-consuming work. A cigarette lighter and a high tolerance for pain can accomplish the same goal and save hours. Its a good idea to keep a bucket of water handy when using this method.
