Quick and Simple life hacks: FOIL EDITION!
1. Need to scrape off the grill but can’t find that wire brush? Ball up the foil, get it deep between the grates and go to town.
2. Want to save some serious time ironing your clothes? Put a long strip of foil on top of the ironing board and replace the cover. Go to town. With all that heat reflection you can take care of both sides at once.
3. Can’t find the correct sized battery? Easily make up the difference with a little well placed foil goodness. We’ve covered this one before but its definitely worth repeating.
4. Hate struggling to move large pieces of furniture? No need to buy pricey sliders. Put a little foil on the bottom of the legs and glide on through.
5. Love bacon but hate getting rid of the grease? Dump it into a makeshift foil bowl. Once it hardens, ball it up and toss it out.
6. And finally, if you can’t find a funnel. Roll one out of foil instead. Transferring fluids has never been so easy.

That’s what I’m talking about!
Batman fanatic Chris Weir is so besotted with the Batman the Dark Knight that he invested $120,000 (£78,000) in the bat man character – including his very own batcave in his basement.
Batman comic books, Batman action figures and Batman posters are essential in any superhero fans’ collections, but for dad Chris it wasn’t enough. The married 38-year-old owns all of the above – but with an added Bat secret lair of his own.
Amazingly, the man-made Styrofoam bat cave can only be accessed in the same way Bruce Wayne opens the Batcave in the classic 60s Batman series starring Adam West. Chris went to painstaking lengths to install a replica of the William Shakespeare bust seen in Wayne Manor.
Flipping the bust open reveals a concealed red button, which activates a hidden door in a display case for Chris’ favourite Batman collectibles. Inside the cave is a life-size Batman suit used by the Caped Crusader in the latest Chrisopher Nolan films.
A home cinema inside the bat cave features a huge 100-inch TV screen where Chris watches Batman movies, shows and cartoons with wife Joanna, 36, and sons Zachary, 9 and Daniel, 13.
There’s also rows of cinema seats for guests, table football, and even a functioning bar. Chris, from Middletown, Delaware, said: “I wanted the room to look like something Batman himself would operate in, but its all for entertainment purposes.”
The batcave was so important to Chris, that while shopping for a home, the deciding factor was whether or not it had room for the batcave he dreamed of building. Chris’ wife Joanna was given two options, one being their current home.
“She was a little apprehensive at first,” he said. “But then she came around and said as long as I could pay the mortgage, I could do it,” Chris said. Chris’ infatuation with Batman began age three when he played “Batman and Robin” in his yard with his uncle.
Through his childhood his mum bought him figurines of the characters from Batman comic book, including Batman himself, Robin, the Joker, and the Bat-mobile. Around age 14, he bought his first comic book, “The Legends of The Dark Knight, and paid for a monthly subscription using pocket-money.

An Irishman, a Mexican, and a redneck were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building. They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, “Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch, I’m going to jump off this building.”
The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, “Burritos again! If I get burritos one more time, I’m going to jump off, too.”
The redneck opened his lunch and said, “Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I’m jumping, too.”
The next day, the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned beef and cabbage, and jumped to his death. The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito, and jumped too. The redneck opened his lunch, saw the bologna, and jumped to his death also.
At the funeral, the Irishman’s wife was weeping. She said, “If I’d known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!”
The Mexican’s wife also wept and said, “I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn’t realize he hated burritos so much.” Everyone turned and stared at the redneck’s wife.
“Hey, don’t look at me,” she said. “He made his own lunch!”
