    My BF is so not handy. I'm not sure he can even work the can opener. Lucky for me, I like to laugh.

    My unfortunate experience is that a bottle opener - one of those rubber doohickeys that opens bottles and jars - which I've had since college, has been more handy than any guy I've known.

    yeah Zen is our Miss Independent. Give her a break for being so.

    I, on the other hand, am happily married to the man of my dreams- Mr. Leatherman. He can carve a turkey, fix my bike, assemble and disassemble dorm furniture, open up a great wine or beer, and open up a can of whoop ***.

    And here I was afraid of offending V with my Red Green quote.

    Just assume Zen is always writing in the ironic voice and you'll save yourself a lot of energy.

    Though I do want to know what CC meant by coolio. Isn't he a gangsta rapper? Cultural mistakes are easy to make when you only think you speak the same language. I mean, our toilets don't even flush the same way.

    One day whilst complimenting my neighborhood gangster cars hood I made the cultural error of saying "nice bonnet. "

    LOL - that guy has the right idea.
    Now my husband seems to be away with work more than he is here and so I am pretty well sorted at taking care of myself and the tiddly peeps (except I know SK downloading pics is an issue) but would a can opener make me laugh till my sides hurt. Nahh I don't think so.

    Now where can I find someone to rig me up a music machine like that. Hmm but with my speed would it ever play.
    The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
