He was also fond of repeating.... Dishwashers are always needed.
One can only wonder how many unemployed could get a job a the kitchen washing dishes if they only would go look
Sure do. I haven't bought a retail shirt in 10 years. Get all mine at the Salvation Army. $75 to $100 shirts for $2.50 to $5. Dang near new and a good percentage are missing a button. Often still have the replacement buttons down at the hem still attached.
How to trap critters. With a couple of conibears or even some snare wire, you will never go hungry for long.
Probably already said, but shoot a gun, fish, and hunt

Their stupidty or laziness is your gain! I buy lots of things at Salvation Army and Goodwill , too. They are good sources for yard/auto/house work or vacation clothes, not dress or “nice” work stuff as often, but sometimes a really nice item will be found there.
With no road or no building, ME’s are out in the cold
CE’s are the lathe of engineers
All disciples are worthless without the others.
The best Engineers I have met are simply smart and have a good overlap.
I am also pinging an EE as they are the real problem.
Really?
I never click on a blog and am now glad I didn’t.
As I heard it told, Mechanical Engineers build weapons.
Civil Engineers build targets.
I love that quote, too! Have you ever looked at your life to see how close you are to ‘Heinlein’s Perfection’? Do it! You’ll be surprised at what you’ve already accomplished! :)
A human being should be able to:
Change a diaper: Literally, HUNDREDS. Raised three boys.
Plan an invasion: 20 years in the Army? Yep. I can do that. :)
Butcher a hog: Never did a hog, but did plenty of deer and chickens.
Conn a ship: That means to stock it for voyage, right? If so, my ‘ship,’ while still in harbor, is fully stocked!
Design a building: I’ve designed gardens, but not buildings.
Write a sonnet: Written poetry, never attempted a Sonnet - Yet!
Balance accounts: Daily!
Build a wall: Planted a ‘living wall’ of trees; never from brick or stone. Yet.
Set a bone: Never had to yet. Hope I never do, but I’ve taken care of stitching people up and cleaning wounds if that counts?
Comfort the dying: Yep. My best girlfriend died of cancer seven years ago. I was with her ‘til the bitter end. Miss you, Cathy Jo! Every damn day, Girl. :)
Take orders: Again, 20 years in the Army!
Give orders: Again, 20 years int he Army!
Cooperate: I have an EVIL Little Sister, so I’ve learned that lesson, thanks to Dear Old Mom, LOL!
Act alone: Always! I live in ‘The People’s Republik of Madistan.’ I do all sorts of subversive stuff under cover of darkness...
Solve equations: Math was never my strong suit, though I’m REALLY good with money.
Analyze a new problem: Problems? Not me, LOL!
Pitch manure: Does chicken manure count?
Program a computer: Beyond me. This will not happen in my lifetime.
Cook a tasty meal: I totally ROCK at this!
Fight efficiently: The only person I’ve ever come to blows with has been that Sister noted above that I was ‘supposed’ to be ‘cooperating’ with! :)
Die gallantly: When the time comes I will, but I’ll be taking a few down with me if need be, LOL! :)
“Satisfy a woman...”
Um...THAT needs to be NUMBER ONE Guys, LOL! Your life would be SO much easier if you’d learn that ONE little skill, LOL!
However, we women ALL want different things from our men and ‘satisfaction’ is pretty subjective, so you’re pretty much scr3wd, LOL!
You’d think, wouldn’t ya? I mean, guns are all-around handy to have on hand!
I hate to tell you, but that WAS a pig...
“No offense, but this could be the lamest list of important things to know how to do ever published.”
None taken. I knew Freepers would have fun with this. :)
“Like the fistfight.. now get real.. why do a fist fight when you can take out your gun & not mess up your hair?”
Or break a nail! Or lose an earlobe when that beotch goes for your dangling earing! Yeesh! Who made up this list?
I’ll bet it was a bunch of male geeks who have never even SEEN a woman naked, sitting around in the Break Room, DOODLING, while the women were doing all of the WORK!
Those B@stards! :)
Thanks
Bought a very nice pair of Cole Haan shoes at Goodwill a few months ago. All leather, and hardly worn for $9.95. Just has to redye the leather heel and they look brand new.
I can fly a plane.
Drive a semi.
Build a gun - from anything from old parts, to stuff I found in the park. Taught my kids how to find nitre, charcoal, and sulfer inside the beltway, in the public parks.
But I can’t sing.
And nobody has ever satisfied a woman.
