Saving Time in the Daylight. Or in the Dark Night.

© Saint David Hartman
     Daylight Savings Time means we spring forward next week.
     I've been thinking about the whole time saving concept in conjunction with Daylight Savings Time, and remembered something I read online years ago from a website offering practical tips on saving your valuable time. I don't remember the website, but what I'm about to share with you was the only time-saving tip there worth remembering, anyway.
     The tip is on how to take off your shirt faster, and it can easily save 1-2 seconds every time time you take off a shirt. Since I started employing this method years ago, I've probably saved 3-5 minutes of my valuable time. It's a wonder I ever managed to undress without it. But it's not just the time saved. Through the years I've probably saved gallons of water by stepping into a running shower a couple of second faster every morning. So it's environmentally friendly as well.
     One caveat though....this seems to work best with t-shirts or stretchy shirts. I wouldn't try it with a dress shirt or something that had a lot of buttons. I know, I know....some of you are just naturally curious and will want to learn from your own mistakes rather than learning from Saint Hartman's, so do what you gotta do. Just don't say I didn't warn ya if something bad happens.
     Using the wonderful technology of the HTC EVO's dual cameras, I'll show you how to go from zero to shirtless in no more than a second, after you get the hang of it. If you have a weak stomach, a couple of the images might scare you shirtless too, but it's a risk I'm willing to take here at Spam on Wry to make your lives more time efficient.
     So much easier than raising the shirt up from the bottom. Start at the top and let gravity work for ya.
     Remember, at Spam on Wry, we love reader feedback, so please feel free to share other important time-saving tips you've come across!
1. Reach behind your back
and grab the shirt from the
collar. Hold your thumb
against the tag for a good
grip.
2. From the back, pull the
collar straight over your head
until the tail of the shirt
is over your head as well.
















3. Keep pullin' till the
shirt slides off the
shoulders...

4. Then straight down
the arms. Done!
