#17. Make home made beer. That should be #1.

Some of those are pretty weak. I mean, are there really people who can't boost a car, change a flat or replace a faucet washer?

There's only one skill needed, and thats why I start the day with 10 tongue pushups.

#0. Make enough to pay someone to do all these things for you.

Exactly! Where was "slow hand", "clam diggin''", and the all-important "clever language guy?"

And how about "beer chuggin'", "musical burpin'", "tellin' fish tales", "surreptitious boob ogling", and other REAL manly pursuits? Sure, they had fire starting and furniture moving, but "sewing on buttons" doesn't even make my top 1000, never mind 100.

Uh... temptation is great... must resist.... misogynist commentary...

I'm not sayin' I know a representative sample of such people, but I *am* saying that of those people I know, 90% of them are female. Of course, is it smarter to know how to do some of these things, or is it smarter to know how to manipulate a guy into doing them for you?
