How I did it: e-bay, baby! I live in a large town or small city (about 50,000 people) and listed my car on ebay Motors as a classified ad. I got a call later that day.I really thought I had the title to the car but, as it turns out, the guy I bought it from never gave it to me--he just sent me the paperwork. How was I supposed to know? I felt bad about it, but I got in touch with the guy who bought my car and told him he'd have … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I had been smoking since I was about 12, but I only smoked on a regular basis for about nine years. In the last few months, I've noticed I've been smoking almost two full packs a day. So, once the new cigarette tax in my state took effect, I knew it was simply too expensive to keep doing this to myself.

I don’t want to be a millionaire. I don’t want to have nine-hundred kids. I don’t want to own fancy cars. But, someday, when I finish grad school and have a good job living in a coastal region, I am pretty serious about wanting to live on a houseboat.
Religion is a threat to reason. Reason is the most empowering tool to master, the foundation of an educated polity is reason. Empowering people to live healthy, happy, autonomous lives is what gets me out of bed in the morning. It is my civic responsibility to be an atheist, and it’s yours, too.
It’s not about efficiency. It’s about living within – and under – my means. I am truly fortunate to have the opportunities that I do, and I need to get rid of the barriers that other people must overcome in order to have the opportunities that I do. In doing this, I must curb my consumption.
