Hey, now! Stuffing a paper towel tube full of dryer sheets and exhaling marijuana smoke into it does indeed make it very difficult to detect any odor in the room, even to nonsmokers! And rubbing a dryer sheet on the cat does reduce static in her fur. I don’t think I’m familiar with any other uses, except, y’know, in your dryer.

Actually, if you rub a dryer sheet on your legs (or pantyhose) or the inside of your skirt (coat, whatever), it will prevent static from forming and your clothes from gluing themselves to you.

In fact, it’s something you have GOT to take with you if you’re in a bridal party, because you’ll be the only one who did and somebody will really need it. Thank me later.
You can also place a dryer sheet across your furnace filter/air conditioner filter/air intake filter/whatever the hell that thing is called, to make your whole house smell April fresh.
When I was very young, my father told me that sheep manure would cure chapped lips. Fortunately, I was at least old enough to realize that was way too gross to contemplate.
My brother once told me that the best cure for hiccups is to lie down at the top of a hill, roll down it, and take a bite of grass everytime your face is on the ground. I tried this once, got filthy, green teeth and a bloody nose. My mom found out why I rolled down the hill attempting to eat grass, and she gave my brother what for. More evidence that hiccup “cures” exist solely for the purpose of amusing the person without hiccups.

I had heard this, too, except it was chicken manure. The reasoning given was that it would prevent you from licking your lips, which tends to dry them out more.
I was kind of interested in the cell-phone numbers. For the first time yesterday noticed that Nokia recommended that I enter a string of numbers like that when I updated minutes (400 minutes/365 yay).
