    I'll call my plumber and ask hows business, Then he tells me how busy he is, no time to stop. Then he asks, ok, what you got. Then I start with, I have a girl, that's having problems....He tells me it's always an attractive girl, so he drops his other calls and gets to my friends problems. Such a great guy. Good to have friends like that.

    here is the "breaker switch" stir the pot a little: example : Person of the year should be Bo Wallace : why ? He lead a good at best Ole Miss team and Beat Mighty Bama. The doctors are not person of the year. I know that is a weak example , I may try the mojo stir this bowl season just to see if it needs a little tweeting Ohio State LOL may not be enough in the stir stick . OS and Myers will need 20+ points I am trying to get OS + 30 no luck yet , but I am sure I will find the "right " Person. .Bama fans are bored now .. I know Myers is ready and wants to prove he is a SEC " " coach . It is not that he could not beat the SEC coaches , it was his team .they would not follow his " Follow His Instructions " After all the only reason a player is at OS IS they are not good enough to play on a Nick Saban coached team, even Myers knows that . Bowl season sure is fun .

    Guido should show the helpless female the circuit box and explain it. I have tenants who ask me to call the plumber when the kitchen faucet starts dripping or the toilet flapper starts failing and I have to tell them to go to Walmart and buy a $4 flapper or a 50¢ washer and put it in themselves. I can't tell you how many times I have had to talk some dimwit over the phone on how to find her circuit box and flip a damn switch. You can't blame electricians and plumbers for people being stupid.

    It's hard for me to understand how people can get twelve years of public education and learn languages and algebra and not learn standard household maintenance. Do fathers never show their kids these things growing up anymore?

    No, because they don't know it themselves.

    in '92 I had just moved to Ft Riley. We got everything situated and my wife says "The dryer won't heat" so I took a look at it and said wtf, called the appliance guy. This dick shows up, takes a look around and says "just moving in huh"? I said yep. He gets his little flashlight, lays it on the ground, tilts the dryer back and reaches under and plugs in the wire that has come loose during the move.
    I don't remember what the charge was but I wanted to kick his ass for it and then I wanted to kick my own ass for being too dumb to figure that out before calling him.
