So you know how some chip bags won't easily rip along the intended seam, and if you
try to exert too much force you risk it being blown wide open and potentially shower you

So to avoid that you place two coins on the opposite sides of the bag (close together)
and squeeze the bag with your thumbs, as seen in the picture above. Then when you try
to rip open the bag, the coins will work as makeshift scissors and neatly cut it open.

Brianna Priddy, a waitress at an Applebee's in
Lakewood, Colorado, lost her wallet one night. She began
the laborious process of replacing its contents and
ensuring that her identity wasn't stolen. Alas, someone
used it to write hundreds of dollars in bad checks in
Priddy's name.
Fortunately, her driver's license came back to her when
she asked a customer who wanted to buy an alcoholic
drink to show a photo ID. The patron handed Priddy her
own missing driver's license:
"But I didn't say anything. I handed it back to her and said sure I'll be right back with your
margarita. [I] went straight to the phone, called the cops," Priddy said.
Priddy acted like nothing was wrong.
"I put on my server smile and tried to take care of them, but I was shaking like crazy,"
Priddy said.
Lakewood police arrived in minutes. [...]
The woman accused of using Priddy's stolen ID faces felony charges including theft,
identity theft, and criminal impersonation.

2. “Oversight is the noun form of two verbs with contrary

3. Left can mean either remaining or departed. If the gentlemen have

gentlemen have left and the ladies are left.)
4. Dust is a noun turned into a verb meaning either to add or to remove the

are you applying dust or removing it? It depends whether you‟re dusting

Sending un-purchased properties to auction has a number of benefits.
Firstly, it speeds up the game, as it enables the quicker collection of a matched set of streets (and
remember that it’s only when players have collected sets, and can start building houses, that the
game moves into its final phase).
Secondly, it makes the game much more interesting by massively increasing the interaction
between players. Bluff appropriately and you could end up buying a property you really want for
way below the market price - or trick another player into buying a property you don’t want for way
more than the market price.
Thirdly, it makes the game much more skilful, since it is now less dependent on luck, and more
dependent on your ability to trick, bluff and manage the other players.
