I agree, although the list is specific to men, and that is a life skill every man, woman, and child should have. I could do it in the womb. Really. Mom was really ticked off about it, too.

Lessee - I could add a few. Knowing how to decouple the neighbor's dog from yours in a moment of passion using only a rolled-up newspaper and a garden hose. Knowing the use, maintenance, and repair of a Shop-Vac, an electric drill, and a moving dolly. Being able to judge the quality of a fine wine by reading the alcohol percentage from the label and sniffing the twist cap. The ability to belch and/or fart a Puccini aria from a combination of pork rinds and cheap beer. How to tie a four-in-hand or a Half Windsor knot for yourself and in reverse for somebody else. Range rules. Football rules. How to blow a stump with kitchen ingredients.

More as I think of them...
