In all seriousness, here's what slowed down the leaks for me:

Install a good carb kit. Set float level slightly lower than what is called for. This can help to keep fuel level from sitting right at the airhorn gasket. Bush the throttle shafts, this helps reduce fuel and vacuum leaks around the shaft. Don't overtighten the air horn, stagger tighten the screws like you would a head gasket. Use carb insulator to reduce fuel percolation. Use a good fuel filter to keep trash from sticking the main needle & seat.
