Whiteboard Life Saver
Raise your hand if you've felt that sinking feeling that hits just after realizing you've written on a whiteboard with a permanent marker. There ought to be a law. No sane person should ever leave a permanent marker within ten feet of a whiteboard. (Okay, you can put your hands down.)
Do you know what to do if you write on a whiteboard with a permanent marker? Back in college, I decided to doodle on the whiteboard next to a friend's phone. Unfortunately I grabbed a permanet marker cleverly disguised to look just like the erasable markers next to it. I was not thrilled with the idea of my inane little drawing being forever immortalized in my friend's kitchen. While I pondered whether to fake a seizure of offer to buy a new whiteboard, my friend explained it wasn't a big deal. Did you know that if you write over the permanent marker ink with an erasable marker you can get rid of most of the ink? Now you do.
