My grandfather warned my dad and my dad warned me about being too “handy” at fixing stuff. At first the wife is impressed but before long she expects you to be able to fix anything and everything. Then comes the day when something comes along that you are unable to fix and the wife figures you won’t fix it because you’re being an a-hole.
Grandpa and dad were absolutely correct.
To your point. I put the dishes in the washer only once!

You would think the act of buying a phone, computer, printer, automobile, camera, cultivator or a myriad of other items, designated you as the exclusive and rightful proprietor, but in today’s world, you will soon learn that is not even close to the truth of the matter. All at the thralldom of security and service.

Yes, its true ('It's no joke.' or 'Let me be very clear.') Apple has this list of people that need harassment, for one reason or the other, and they send problems to these people just for giggles.
Yes I sat at a kids table at all family functions growing up. We had large families. My Mother was one of 14. My Father one of 8 and I was one of 8 (4 boys and 4 girls). Thanksgiving and Christmas was a wonderful time for us. At some meals there would be 45 total mouths to feed...all related to each other. One table could not hold all of us. The food, brought by each family (pot-luck style), was placed on a group of tables and we lined up to pass by and select what we wanted to eat. Second passes were permitted and welcome. After selecting your food you then went to the adult or kids tables, based on your age. We had to rent the tables and chairs to have enough.

Sorry. I read it as: "The capabilities of the human brain is quite amazing!"
My bad!

As kids we always used the bands from Grandpa's cigars when we enacted weddings.
One time we married our cat to our dog this way. It didn’t last!

He was only a ‘half baked’ kid when he took out these student loans.
His parents and the collage and banking counselors/advisers share some of the blame, along with the government, that made it too easy to get these loans without consideration for the ROI.

He is young....he'll live thru it. I did not have or require medical insurance until I was about 30.
