Thought for the Day

Ladies and gentlemen, what you see here is all a homeowner needs to keep things up and running:

  • WD-40
  • Velcro
  • Expanding foam spray
  • 550 cord
  • Duct tape
  • Multitool
Only other things I need is a six pack of something cold, a radio with a baseball or football game, and solitude, and I can fix just about anything around here.  Might not be pretty, but it’ll be ‘fixed’.

    Paracord. There's no paracord. How else are you and Boo gonna make bracelets and belts when he's a Cub Scout?

    Excellent tool kit. Mine is similar, with the addition of a roll of black electrical tape, and a staple gun.

    I'd rather not find out if duct tape is an insulator.

    And, sometimes I don't have time to get the velcro in place. Just staple that bad boy up, and let's get back to it.

    You forgot to include a hammer and a pair of vice grips.

    So, “hook” half of velcro on 550 cord, but how do you get it down the hair-clogged drain?

    Free advice:

    If it moves, and shouldn't, duct tape.

    If it doesn't move, and should, WD-40.

    You're welcome.
