Three tips on petrol economy.

  1. Keep your windows closed at high speeds—drag from open windows can reduce a car’s fuel efficiency by 10 percent.
  2. Cleaning 100 pounds of junk from your car will get you up to 2 percent more miles per gallon.
  3. Tighten your gas cap—a leaking or missing cap can release 30 gallons of fuel per year into the atmosphere.

Hello

Most folks who visit random notes seem to hang around for about 9.156 minutes on average.

My name is and I just learned that the hash sign is also known as an octothorp. It's exactly this kind of unnecessary information works its way into conversations that scares people away from me. Not that I am really complaining though…
