Board Game Tip of the Day
You should keep pens and paper in any box that requires score keeping or answer writing. A bag of popcorn wouldn't be a bad idea either

Post-Run Tip of the Day
This is a tip for those who might run where giant swarms of gnats sometimes loiter by the side of the road. This tip stems from a run on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, but I've encountered swarms of gnats in Virginia and Kentucky as well. After your run, always stop and look in a mirror before going into public. Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.
Blu-Ray Tip of the Day

Well it's official . Now that Wal-Mart & Warner Brothers have both agreed to exclusively support Blu-Ray, there is no longer a big question mark as to what will be the disc type for watching High Definition movies at home. The other competitor was "HD DVD", not to be confused with regular "DVD" that we know and love. This whole deal was just what would be the new standard for HD movies. Regular old DVD will still be with us for many years to come for sure, but if you want to watch the latest movies on your big widescreen TV, then you might want to consider Blu-Ray as it will take advantage of every last pixel.

P.S. Great series of tips BTW
I'll add a name to the list. I knew a mom whose kids referred to anyone they didn't like as "stinky lady", which is endlessly funny in any application.
(See? HEE-larious.)
I will however, point out that this is Jason's topic. I only get in trouble for commenting on eye brows.
Is this bad? I've only ever heard "white" and "black" used as terms - both which are normal and not taboo. i.e. "black babies are so cute," "white people can't dance"
Example: in the seventh grade, I about got the crap kicked out of me. In the locker room after gym some other kids were being loud. I said in passing, "I wish those girls would shut up". However, when the offending party thought I said, "I wish those (black) girls would shut up" - WOW - major drama. And I can see why. If I had really said what they thought I had, I would have been insinuating that their whole race was a nuisance and should adapt its behavior to fit whatever restrictions my race preferred. Luckily, a friend came to my defense and affirmed that I was not, in fact, a bigoted creep but merely a kid with a headache. Tragedy averted.
They used to laugh about how they were always featured in Taylor's admissions material.
