Summertime can only mean one thing -cut off jean shorts

Summer time, bros! Time to take the T-tops off, and the put your denim shorts on!

Don't have any shorts? Not a problem, mang! Just like a chiropractor, Dirt Rodder has got your back ...

How to Make Denim Shorts:


Things You'll Need

• Old jeans
• Regular bleach
• Scissors
• Steak knife
• Pocket knife
• Dryer




Warnings

• Be safe around the bleach. Don't let it get on other clothes or on
your skin.

• Be careful when using sharp knives.

Steps

1.) Put a pair of old jeans into a bathtub full of water with the amount of bleach you desire in it. This amount depends on how light or dark you want your cut-offs.

2.) Let the jeans soak for about a half hour to an hour (once again,depends on how much bleach you put in).


3.) Take the jeans out and throw them in the dryer for about one hour. If they're a little damp, don't worry, you can work fine with them.

4.) Use tough scissors to cut off the legs until you get to your desired length.

5.) Fray the bottom edges and around the sides and the front and back pocket openings with scissors or a pocket knife.

6.) Fray the actual fabric up and down fast and hard to get a rough look, using sandpaper.

Tips

• To keep the stringy fray, you may want to freshen them up every now and then by running the knife across the cut-offs.

• When you are cutting your jeans down to shorts, be sure to try them on every few cuts! Remember, you can always cut off more, but you can't always add back on easily.

• If you get bleach on your skin, wash the area immediately for 15-20 minutes in warm water.

• If you already have a favorite pair of shorts, fold them in half the same way you folded your jeans (do this before you cut) and lay the shorts on top of the jeans lining up the seams, use the shorts as a loose guideline for length.

• If your shorts are too tight around the thigh, snip about two inches up the outside seam, and fold. (Looks better with jeans that are lighter on the inside.)

There you have it... Stay cool, bros. DR

Sometimes you gotta be a little healthy, bro

I think the easiest breakfast option in the world is a bowl of cereal. But just because it is an easy option, doesn't mean it has to be unhealthy. I like starting my day off with a cereal that is high in fiber; it helps keep me full and helps me reach the recommended 30 gram mark for daily intake of fiber. When shopping for cereal, go for ones made with whole grains that contain at least three grams of fiber per serving. Here are some great options:

  • Kashi Go Lean (10 g)
  • Kashi Go Lean Crunch (8 g)
  • Nature's Path Optimum Power (10 g)
  • Barbara's Shredded Oats (4 g)
  • Barbara's Puffins (6.7 g)
  • Barbara's Ultima (16 g)
  • Fiber One (28.8 g)
  • Bear Naked Peanut Butter Granola (3 g)
  • Bear Naked Apple Cinnamon Granola (3 g)
  • Bear Naked Fit Triple Berry Crunch Granola (3 g)
  • Kashi Mountain Medley Granola (3 g)
  • Kashi Orchard Spice Granola (3 g)

Fit Tip: Increase the fiber content of your cereal by adding nuts and fresh, frozen, or dried fruit.

jackpot.


Who could even put a price on this box of music?
Well, the guy selling them at the rummage sale did:
$0.50 per tape, or the whole box for less than ten bucks!
score!
not jealous? Well, this should do the trick:
A Dirt Rodder staff member purchased a starter from the same rummage for a lousy $1.00.

Wait, what!?
...you didn't really ask that, did you? ....Of course it was for a Small Block Chevy....

Happy 4-20, bros

By Kurt, DirtRodder staff

My bro, Jake, asked me to say a few words here given today's date, which i feel more than honored and qualified to do.

Dirt Rodder's editor doesn't smoke refer...which i totally don't get. I mean, fuck an A man, some Deep Purple turned up to 11 and a freshly rolled bone with a couple of bros? Hey, i'll even pick out the beaners if you'd give it try, man.

Anyhow, gimme a call after work...i should still have a little bit of this 1/4 I bought leftover...i spent 25 bucks on it, so you know it's the real deal.
Happy 4/20 bros.

here's a photo of last year's 4/20 burnout during a burnout:

How to Get a Job - My cousin with the Camaro


Times are tough for a bro out there... Adam (pictured at right), a cuz' and long time Dirt Rodder, recently applied for a job on craigslist. Think you know how to write a cover letter with your resume- think again...

Here's Adam's email, EXACTLY as he submitted it for employment:


Subject: Driving instructor at your service


Offensive (I mean defensive) driving
instructor available for duty.


My name is Adam, and I am writing in response to the "defensive driver
instructors" ad that is currently running on Craigslist Milwaukee.
Looking for the best? Here I am. Seriously, "hands down" one of the
finest drivers you will ever find is at your service. Are you kidding?
No I am not. Started driving at the age of 10 or 11 (cannot remember
exactly what age). First car driven was a hobby stock race car. First
direction driven, sideways. Thats right, I said sideways. Was in a
hayfield, could not even see out the windscreen. Learned how to
control a spin and how to purposely throw a cars' ass end around in a
controlled manner. Before the age of 15 would "steal" (I like to say
borrowed) Mothers' Pontiac for 100 M.P.H. joy rides. In high school,
the only kid in Drivers Ed that could successively do a "Rockford" on
city streets. First speeding ticket was at the age of 16, one week
into having a license. That first
speeding ticket was for going 80 in
a 55. Lifetime (to date) highest M.P.H clocked on police radar was 130
(that was going around a corner by the way=2
0and in a Super Sport
Chevrolet!). Speeding tickets are not the only traffic citations
accumulated over the years by this "Habitual Traffic Offender".
Operating while intoxicated, reckless driving, disorderly conduct with
a motor vehicle, "racing", "cruising", exhaust excessively loud,
excessive acceleration, failure to stop for a red light, failure to
where a seatbelt (12 times), no rearview mirror, windows excessively
dirty, expired registration, "weaving", "tailgating", failure to pay
toll, wrong license plates for vehicle, operating after revoked,
speeding (at least 30 times), the list goes on. Why are you telling me
this?! Here's why. One word. Experience. Drove race cars for 7
years. Have outrun police on numerous occasions. (Those Fords that
they drive are pathetic, I love a good Chevrolet). Been "involved" in
no less than 10 automobile accidents (none life threatening). Have
also been "involved" with no less than 100 street races (going 145
M.P.H. smokin a Cobra through town was a great race). Great skills at
expressway merging, "muscling" into tight lanes of traffic, evasive
maneuvering, "scanning" the road ahead, "predicting" potential
accidents, "reacting" to real instances. Also great at high speed
driving, launching a "manual shift" car or truck, launching an
"automatic" car or truck, power sh
ifting, double clutching, "drifting",
the this goes on.


Available most anytime weekdays for a real life demonstration. We can
use your bosses car! (kidding)


Great experience with "classroom" instruction. Computer literate.
Excellent written/verbal/ presentation skills. Amazing coach/leader
attitude. Will work with ALL students until they pass. Nobody fails
when I teach them something. Also, have passed two driving safety
courses in the past (court ordered).


If you think I am joking, you're wrong. I am a small business owner
looking for extra income. Real life experience is the key to success
at anything. Please do not hire somebody else for this position until
you have at least been in contact with me first. You wont find anyone
who can drive like me. Thank you.


Sincerely,

Adam
