I also blame my dad. He didn't know shit about cars. And because he didn't, he wouldn't let me work on anything because he assumed I didn't know anything either. He ignored the fact that I drove an old truck and all of my friends drove old shitboxes that we had to work on constantly.

Quoted: My dad had to fix everything. We didn't have a lot of money. I've inherited that trait. I will spend thousands on tools to not have to pay thousands more in labor.

Want me to change the oil in your car?
Little Problem: I've had practice in Jeeps. Same thing when it comes to changing tires. Want me to install Internet in your home? No problem, I do it for a living (almost, since I now work in an AC office. Still Qualified). Want me to do serious work on your Vehicle? Pardon me while I get the Yellow Pages out. A mans got to know his limitations. Soundtrack – Conan the Barbarian – 21 – Funeral Pyre Conan the Barbarian - 22 - Funeral Pyre |

Quoted: I'm pretty good at holding a flashlight. View Quote I also have a strap that has a tiny LED Light on your forehead.

My best friend bought the house I grew up in and then changed a bunch of interior walls.
Kinda weird to see sometimes but I'm glad they're making it work for their family. |
