8. Mr Blandings builds his Dream House

9. Apollo 13

Facts of Life

No not those, but ideas that I have found to be 95% true and usable as practical methods of living your life.

Corollary: That once in a lifetime offer isn't. Your life may or may not change but you should not have any guilt about passing something up.
