Sure you did. The people who lie about their sex skills are the people who lose their virginity with a vaccum cleaner.

You know, knife thrower, with a name like that, you could be a pickerist...

I remember spending hours on a friend's '73 Volvo that the AC compressor kept falling off of. I finally triangulated it with two pieces of 1.5'' by 1/8" strap, drilling and tapping the block. And the damn thing didn't fall off any more. They weren't too familiar with AC in Sweden, and many of their workers sabotaged the Volvos heading for the States, anyway. Oh, I'm pretty good at some of the other skills mentioned also. I was the first person to take a low-volume kayak down the Grand Canyon. Does that count?

I can do anything I feel needs to be done; I also believe I can do any number of things that I have not yet done, and do them well, to boot. B)
I have a pretty good eye also for the things I would be bad at, and the judgement to know not to attempt them. :D

My computor remains a mystery.........

If braindeath was a commodity I'd be wealthy.

But I am mostly good at convincing people I am a Miss-Understood histrionic.

It seems alot of people have had experience with 73 volvos :P
I don't have that car anymore, it was a piece of shit!
I forgot to mention I can cook too :lol:
I probably should have paraphrased my first post a little differently, I didn't mean: Could you do all the things
I can, I meant: this is what I'm good at. Although it would seem @MERLIN-1, you are proficient at firearms too.I can also quick-draw, hunt, and fish, Which reminds me: Have you ever taken the life of an animal, and ate of its flesh? :ph34r:

Well, I have, but it's sort of cheating. I'm so old that keeping chickens and wringing their necks was routine - nothing special. However, I have also shot something and eaten it, if that's more important....

I can assemble a car from pieces.
I can drive that car fairly well.
I can navigate to the grocery store.
I can bypass the hunting/killing part.

Although, if Haagen Daaz had legs and ran around the forest I'd be out there with Ted Nugent slaughtering the little bastards. :D

in response to the animal question, i caught a rabbit a while ago. it was eating the rhubard in my garden, so i caught it with a clothes basket, some lettuce, a twig and some rope
i let it go though, don't fancy eating rabbit much :D
