The set up establishes the premise of the story by providing your audience with the necessary background information and details. Your set up should be as tight and to the point as possible. It should focus on one theme or idea, as you want the story to be brief, but entertaining and easy to understand. The punchline or laugh line is the heart of the story. It should lead the audience in one direction and then surprise them by suddenly escalating into a more interesting climax or going off into a completely different direction than was suggested by the set up. A twist in the story, or element of surprise, usually makes for a good punchline. Determining your punchline will help you pair down any extra details and tailor the set up so it works up to a big laugh. Read your first draft of the story out loud to determine which points are funny and which points in the set up could be tightened or edited out. Remove any extraneous words and only use adjectives when necessary. If you do use adjectives, make them interesting and attention grabbing; don't use "big" when you could use "hulking" "gigantic" or "astronomical". Watch your body language as you tell the story. You should be relaxed, friendly, and appear confident. If you are telling a story with different characters, alter and vary your voice to match a character as they talk. Avoid being monotone or mumbling in a low voice. Try to tell the story like you are telling it to a good friend. Don't be too formal or stiff. It's important to appear like you believe in the story you are telling. Make it your own and make it believable to your listener. Pause before the punchline to signal to the listener that they should pay attention. This will ensure they hear the punchline and hopefully, be ready for a big laugh. Once you have practiced the story a few times, you may start to get comfortable with the material and start to add tags, or additional punchlines. Your tags may build on the original punchline, or they may twist the punchline further into a new, funnier direction. Tags will help you capitalize on the momentum of the original punchline and extend the laugh or create an even bigger laugh so don't be afraid to use them.

One-sentence summary -- Determine your set up. Figure out your punchline. Write the story down. Practice telling the story in the mirror. Add tags to the story.

While most razors you see in the store are considered safety razors, many of them are disposable, meaning you throw the whole razor away. Instead of buying disposables, look for one where you just replace the blade. You'll have a lot less waste overall. This type of razor is more expensive in the beginning. However, replacing blades is usually less expensive than replacing the whole razor. Other razors use a cartridge system, where you just replace the head instead of the whole razor. After you're done shaving, dry off the blade. Put a little baby oil on the blade. The baby oil will help keep it rust-free, making your blade last longer. That reduces the number of blades you're throwing away or recycling. This step can also help keep the blades sharp. The blades on electric razors typically need to be changed less often than safety razors. Plus, even though electric razors use electricity, you generally use less energy overall. That's because when you shave with a safety razor, you typically use a significant amount of hot water, which also takes energy.

One-sentence summary -- Use safety razors with replaceable blades. Keep your blades rust-free by putting baby oil on the blade. Switch to an electric razor to reduce waste.

Building a positive home for your child depends on consistency and predictability. Children require set times to wake, sleep, eat, and do other activities to feel safe and secure. Having erratic schedules can lead to cranky, confused children that act out. Research shows that even though kids may hate bedtime, it's good for helping them regulate emotion, fight impulses, and manage time. Help your child learn self-discipline by creating a predictable schedule for activities like waking up, eating breakfast, eating snack after school, attending extracurricular practice, doing homework, completing chores, and preparing for bed. Limit-setting is another necessary aspect of establishing structure in your home environment. Creating a set of rules to follow in your household lets your children understand the parameters of behaviorwhat's off-limits and what's acceptable. This builds a foundation for other environments your child may enter, such as daycare, relative's homes, or school. Sit down with your partner, if you have one, and devise a set of rules that are clear and easy to understand. Post the rules somewhere they can be seen regularly like on a memo board or clipped to a magnet on the fridge. Your rules might include, for instance, "No running through the house," "No jumping on furniture," "No telling lies," and "No hitting or teasing your siblings." Once you have established ground rules and shared them with your children, be sure to follow through with any consequences for rule-breaking. Consequences should also be clear to your children on the outset. For example, if you have a rule that everyone needs to remove all their belongings from the living room by bedtime, a consequence may be to take anything that's left behind for a period of time or require that they complete a chore in order to retrieve the items. Make sure you follow through on consequences every time as failing to do so presents an opportunity for a power struggle between you and your child. You may even consider getting your children involved in making the rules and coming up with consequences that they think are fair. This will help them to feel appreciated and increase the chances that they will comply with the rules. It's beneficial that children are allowed to contribute to the household in whatever way they can. This helps them develop a strong work ethic, recognize how they can positively contribute to their environment, and appreciate cleanliness and organization. It can be helpful to create a chore chart to place in your kitchen or other common area that clearly states each child's responsibilities.

Because fluid can expand when heated, it's important that you do not overfill the reservoir. When the fluid warms due to the high engine temperatures under the hood, the pressure could cause the reservoir to crack and leak if there is too much fluid in it. Use a turkey baster to suck extra fluid back out of the reservoir in the event you over fill it.

One-sentence summary --
Avoid over filling the reservoir.
