Uhhh....

Yeah...nevermind...

Guess it was better than to say "I suck as a man... :lol:

Oh yeah...

Never done CPR or cleaned a rifle. I've never hooked up an HDTV either but I installed a dual monitor video card and got it working on my computer at work today. Does that count?

Damn, I've done most of them...with a couple exceptions. I carry a spare rad hose, I drive a 40 year old car. How many of you know that cinnamon can fix a pin hole in a rad? As for the wall framing instructions - has this guy ever framed. There were two problems - first up, when I did this for a living, everyone used a framing hammer that was 16" from head to handle end. Make a mark 1.5 inches from the start of the tape, put the X on the left hand side of the mark...then mark at 16" and put the mark on the right, then follow the marks on the tape. That will give you 16" on centre. They don't build tapes with the 16" marked so that you mark at 15.25"

That's why it takes me so damn long to do anything. No shortcuts... :cry:
