How to change a tire
THe Chatterbox shares three sets of steps that everyone should know
1. Pull onto the side on a straight part of the road, so that passing traffic can see you from a distance.

2. Retrieve the lug-wrench, jack and spare tire. 3. Use the lug wrench to loosen the lug nuts holding the wheel to the axle, but do not unthread.
1. Place the bow tie around your neck, under your collar, with one side ‘A’ approximately 1.5 inches longer than the other end ‘B.’
9. Tighten and straighten. 3/25/2014

2. Cross end ‘A’ over end ‘B.’ 3. Bring ‘A’ under and tuck in hole between neck and tie to form half of the knot.
5. Raise the car so the tire is approximately two inches off the ground. 6. Finish loosening the lug nuts and remove the lug nuts.

7. Hold the wheel and pull it off the car. 8. Align the holes of the spare tire with the bolts on the car, lift it up and position it on the threaded nuts.
4. Let ‘A’ rest. Hold ‘B’ at the indent and fold it backward on itself while you use your thumbs and forefingers of both hands to hold ‘B’ at the widest part and create a bow shape.
7. Fold ‘A’ backwards upon itself. 6. Loop ‘A’ under bow and out the top between tie and neck.
4. Place the jack on the proper location on the chassis.
9. Push the tire onto the car until it cannot go any further. 10. Replace and tighten the lug nuts on the bolts; tighten just enough to hold it in place.
5. Bring ‘A’ down in indent.

11. Lower the jack until the car is on all four tires. 12. Tighten the lug nuts, starting with the top one in a star pattern evenly. 13. Ensure the lug nuts are snug and tight but NOT over tightened.

How to turn this paper into a paper hat Place a copy of the Chatterbox horizontally on the table in front of you.
Take one full sheet of the paper and fold it in half, down the paper’s crease so it looks like a page in a book
Fold the upper corners down from the crease end to meet in the middle of the page about two inches above the bottom; this should look like a triangle with an extra rectangular border on the bottom.
Fold one sheet of the border over the triangle on one side, and the other sheet on the other side.
Tuck one sheet’s corner under the triangle and fold the other sheet’s corner on top; do the same for the other side.
