This blog is dedicated to useful hints for within your home.
Example 1: Amy advises that the average American household can hold a number of unanticipated challenges and eye openers. Mike's house in San Diego looks like any other that you would see in Aus. However, did you know that the toilets and sinks truly do send their water down the pipes in the opposite rotational direction to Aus??? It is also advisable to check walls for light 
switches, despite the light looking like a lamp, so that you do not have to try a number of other methods first (NB ineffective methods include: pulling the plug out of the wall, pressing the knob in - which has 'press' written next to it, twisting the knob until it falls off and the globe becomes loose).

Example 2: Today we decided to help Mike's dad for a few hours at a Habitat for Humanity project in Glendale, LA (see picture at top). Our primary task was to assist with the painting (cutting in & rolling) of some of the walls. Following our experience, my advice to all budding painters is to ensure that you know what's behind you. When I stood up after painting and took a step back to admire the artwork, I walked straight into the freshly painted wall. Ooops!!

Al, are you making a habit of getting random marks on the seat of your pants and blaming it on whatever's convenient?...
