CHEAP HOOKERS

The Governor of New York just got caught with one. Jerry Springer's been known to pay for a few. Now it's your turn to buy a cheap hooker to spruce up your home life! In an effort to mix things up a bit in our home, I recently cruised by an area in town where all of the hookers hang out...the mall. To organize our linen closet, bathroom closet, bedroom closet and kitchen pantry I bobbed into Restoration Hardware where I found "vintage hooks" for $6/piece. Instead of throwing your clothes on the floor, hang them on hooks tastefully placed in your closet. In the kitchen, place them next to your sink for dish towels and in the laundry room, use them to air your dirty laundry. Hookers, you'll see, are not only inexpensive but can be a very good thing!

TIME TO COMPLETE TASK: thirty mintues
