Those are some good ones Dun. I think it is important that each person has a good understanding of the law but I'm afraid most don't. To give an example of this, you can look on ships, inside EMT vehicles and around pools. Each has those "throw ropes" to rescue people who are drowning or in some other predicament. If these folks used their heads, they would have a set of jumper cables at the ready cause we all know jumper cables are going to catch any and everything within 10 foot of where they are thrown. ;-)

Dunn, about the mechanical work, I think if I would just go ahead and bust a few knuckles,mash a finger or two,get it over with before I start, I would get more done.
I think once I got older my skin became more apt to break,or did I get clumsier. Probably both.

I learned years ago to where a heavy knit cap rolled up with a thick pad at the lower part if I'm crawling under a car. When that stray piece of dirt hits me in the eye I invariably sit up. With the hat/pad it saves headaches, blood and profanity

Shouldn't this be posted under tips and tricks? ;-)

oh, and my favorite immutable law was the Law of Logical Argument....Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.

Had a friend who threw an ice cube on the floor one day when he was in the freezer getting some ice for his drink. I asked why and he said one always falls on the floor - you might as well go ahead and get it over with.
