I don’t see anything about killing undesirable animals and insects. That’s a must, I think.

I’ve done all but 1, 3 and 12. I know how, but I have just not had the opportunity.

Filleting a fish I can do, but I’m not proficient at it.

That list should include some gardening, animal husbandry and hunting skills. Too weighted toward computer skills

I have driven for months on a repaired hose. The holes are frequently near one end, many times you can cut off a couple of inches and still run the engine.

I’m a redneck and we carry duct tape in the pickup tool box just in case of this kind of emergency

I’ve conquered all those!

The skill that’s consistantly eluded me is how to stop 12:00 from flashing on my dangblasted VCR.

Reminds me of the following quote:

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, and die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." (Robert Heinlen)

Horse Hockey!

Every REAL man knows that you only need to know how to use the two most important things in your toolbox.

Duct Tape and WD-40

So listen up and learn something.

If it moves, and it ain't supposed to - use the Duct Tape.
If it don't move, and its supposed to - use the WD-40.

Don't take no rocket scientist to learn that.
