Hints from Heloise

Has anyone else ever glanced at the Hints from Heloise column in the newspaper? It’s hard one to miss… it’s the one with the helpful household hints like “A great way to use an old photo album that’s lost its luster is to use it for hold recipe clippings from the newspaper!” (that one is made up, incidentally).

I’d like to harness the creativity of the loyal Pingers—what would your hint be if you were to submit one to Heloise? Take a look here for an idea of what you’d find in the column if you’ve never seen it. -ram

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
