Today's Question(s):

Lest see how handy our QOTD family is,which of the following can you do:
Change a tire ? - Change it to what?
Jump start a vehicle ? - I jumped on the hood of my car once, but it never started..
Change the oil in a vehicle ? - I do that every 4,000 miles... by taking it to Midas..
Install a ceiling fan ? - I'm not a big fan of fan installations..
Change out a light switch ? - Hmmm... I can turn it on and off... that's a change, right?
Install a garbage disposal ? - Nah, I'll use the redneck garbage disposal, put the garbage in the dumpster..
Properly fold a fitted sheet ? - A sheet of paper? Sure, I can do that!
Plan & prepare dinner for 12 ? - Hmmm.. If I get a party of 12 to feed, I'll plan and prepare to take them to Burger King, or McDonald's.. or Denny's for the super special occasions.. like weddings..
Edge & weed whack the lawn ? - No lawn in my yards, a lot of weeds though, and I whack them.. with weed killers..
Format a Hard Drive ? - A hard drive... is that driving on a rough road?
I've done most of the above, including formatting IDE and SATA disk drives, but I've never done the plan and prepare dinner for 12.

Bonus Question:

Extra Credit Question:

When my oldest was just little he used to watch "Dora the Explorer" quite a bit. Once when she was looking for one of the landmarks she had to pass, he was standing in front of the TV and pointing out where it was to her, when he turns around and exclaimed. "Dora isn't an Explorer, she is an Idiot." He was 3 if I recall correctly. That was also the last time he wanted to watch that show... Thank God!

Today's Question(s):

Lest see how handy our QOTD family is,which of the following can you do:
Change a tire ?
Never have, and doubt I'd be strong enough to lift the tyre now
Jump start a vehicle ?
Never have, but believe I could do it
Change the oil in a vehicle ?
Never have... would only attempt if desperate!
Install a ceiling fan ?
I don't think we're allowed to in Aus (some electrical and plumbing jobs must be done by a licensed tradesman) - either way, I wouldn't have a clue!
Change out a light switch ?
No clue how to do this either
Install a garbage disposal ?
Guessing this would need to be done by licensed tradesman too
Properly fold a fitted sheet ?
I could if I cared enough!
Plan & prepare dinner for 12 ?
I could if I had to - fortunately most of my friends enjoy cooking much more than me... so they'd probably take over!
Edge & weed whack the lawn ?
I could, but I wouldn't
Format a Hard Drive ?
If there were step-by-step instructions. I'd rather not, though!


Bonus Question:

Wow I actually know someone who has never
wanted to travel overseas


Extra Credit Question:

Long time ago... living alone is remarkably stress-free!

Too many to mention - the earliest one I recall was when my daughter was about 15 months old (or thereabouts) and was just starting to say the odd word here and there. It had been my habit when driving to mutter "c'mon Charlie" whenever another driver was slow moving on a green light, or scared to get onto a roundabout. One day, as I pulled up at a red light, a few seconds passed, then a little voice from the back called out "c'mon Charlie"!
