USING WHO OF WHOM
if you can answer the question being asked with him, then use whom, and it's easy to remember because they both end with m. For example, if you're trying to ask, "Who (or whom) do you love?" The answer would be "I love him." Him ends with an m, so you know to use whom. But if you are trying to ask, "Who (or whom) stepped on Squiggly?" the answer would be "He stepped on Squiggly." There's no m, so you know to use who. So that's the quick and dirty trick: if you can't remember that you use whom when you are referring to the object of the sentence réplique montres, just remember that him equals whom.

SCRIPTING THINGS
If you've had to do the same thing three times you should have scripted a way to do it because you will surely have to do it a fourth time.

IF YOUR FEET ARE COLD AT NIGHT
If your feet are cold at night, put on a hat. Most body heat is lost through an uncovered head. Too much clothing inside of a sleeping bag restricts blood flow. Well made sleeping bags will keep you warm without excess clothing - too much clothing interferes with that.

BUYING A USED CAR
Check Consumer Reports and decide what car you want. Then go to a dealer of that brand and pick a used car that is 2-3 years old. A happy owner will trade in for a new car of the same brand; an unhappy owner will trade for another brand.
