One day several years ago, while watching a cooking show in which the host advised viewers to bake a dish on a baking sheet “because you don’t want it to boil over and end up on the bottom of your oven,” my college roommate, Sara, and I both ruefully laughed out loud. And then Sara [...]

How to Clean Stuffed Animals
March 29, 2010 – 5:14 pm
Stuffed animals or plush toys can mean a lot to kids. In fact, I still have one of the stuffed animals I had when I was a kid—Snoopy. My Snoopy spends a lot of time in a box in the closet. I don’t want to put him out, and I don’t want him to go [...]

How to Clean Cymbals
December 15, 2009 – 11:54 pm
First of all, cymbal cleaning is completely a matter of preference. Many great drummers are content to let their cymbals develop a deep, dark tarnish. This happens to cymbals when they are exposed to air or moisture. Tarnish actually protects metal. Some percussionists get rid of the tarnish for cosmetic reasons. They want to [...]

If you want to learn how to clean a bowl, you’re either pretty new to smoking pot or you’ve been smoking joints and eating brownies.

How to Clean Your System
October 23, 2009 – 12:19 am
I have a bad habit of doing bad things to my body. I smoke cigars (among other things), drink beer and bourbon, eat red met, eat chips and other processed crap, drink soda, and love it. My body, however, does not. And every now and then it lets me know it’s time to take a [...]
How to Clean Your Ears
August 26, 2009 – 12:53 am
When I was little, my mother doted on me. One good-intentioned, loving thing she did was clean my ears. She would call me over to sit on her lap while she slammed Q-tips through my eardrum and into my temporal lobe. So what if I lost the ability to recognize speech and button my [...]
How to Clean Fish
August 26, 2009 – 12:35 am
Kids today are not being taught how to clean fish or any other fresh game. Never in human history have people been so far removed from the food they consume. Where does it come from? What (or who) is in it? Who catches and prepares it? With eyes glazed over and mouths stuffed with [...]
How to Clean a Glass Pipe
June 29, 2009 – 11:10 pm
Passing around a dirty glass pipe is kind of like setting the table with soiled dishes. Sure, you may not mind eating your dinner with a fork that is caked with month-old Spagettios, but you may lose friends if you expect them to do the same. People let their glass pipes fall into a [...]
