FORGETTING SOMETHING IMPORTANT
When leaving someplace you've stayed overnight (such as a hotel or relatives house) anything important you could possibly lose can be found by looking under the bed.

THE TWO READING RULE
Any rule of thumb that can't be easily understood in just two reading passes is useless.

House and Home
WHEN TO PACK IT?
If you use it every day, pack it on the last day before the movers come. A corkscrew/bottle opener, a screw driver, a hammer, a box cutter, and box tape go in the "don't let it out of your sight" bag, rather than in a box.

Hiking
PLANNING A HIKE
Plan on one hour for every three miles of hiking plus 1/2 hour for every 1,000 foot increase in elevation. For example, a six mile hike up a 2,000 foot mountain would take three hours.

Movies and Film
MIXING FILM GENRES
Be careful including a dramatic subplot to a comedic film. Audiences don't laugh for a full five to ten minutes after the word "cancer" is mentioned, according to research conducted by producers of the film Fanboys.

FINDING SATISFACTION AT A HOTEL OR RESTAURANT
If the bar at a hotel is well laid-out, well-stocked, and the bartender is able to be both professional and friendly, I can look forward to my stay. The same can be said of restaurants.
