I used a spray bottle cleaner that had bleach in it. Sprayed just the armpits, let it sit for a few minutes, threw it in the wash alone. Came out totally white without the bleach messing up the logos on the rest of the shirt.

ha, no you stfu ... i never said it didnt do anything, but it doesnt do what it is advertised to do, it wears your carpets out way before they should be worn out, and it DOES blow bacteria and dust all around the air when you turn it on.. unless its a brand new bag every time , how about you dont know what you are talking about

yes i would like to see some data showing that all vacuums are scams and the only legit thing is the airwave3000 or whatever you said before.

Vacuum salesmen have moved to the Internet apparently.

"not only does your vacuum not clean, it actually makes things dirtier! Buy the airwave3000, it actually cleans"

That will give you email addresses which send texts to someone's cell phone.

You need to know their carrier. You can look up here. Not accurate if they changed carriers and moved their number but otherwise good. http://www.fonefinder.net/

Does anyone have a good trick for removing tags completely from clothing without ripping a shirt/blouse or how to stop that tiny little piece of tag left from itching the hell out of you?

When you close a app on either the iPhone &/or iPad, the app does not completely close which drains the battery. To completely close the app, do the following:

Double click the "Home" button to bring up a screen at the bottom of the screen.
You will see all the apps which are still open.
Press one of the icons so the icons wiggle & show the red minus symbol.
Next press the minus symbol to completely close the app(s).

For serious articles, you can't beat the aggregation that the real clear sites do (realclearmarkets.com, sports, world, politics, science). Also a few others, but I don't check them as often.

I have a pair of small scissors that I use to cut the threads on the threaded part of the tag to remove it. If you don't want to cut the threads just slowly cut the tag up and clean it out of there. You'll need a good pair of small scissors though.
