New Tricks January 5, 2009

I received the book Show Me How from friend Kristin for Christmas.  This book is so me.  It diagrams instructional steps for how to do 500 different things from everyday things like fixing a leaking toilet to how to fight off a shark.  She also gave me the supplies to tackle 6 of the 500 tasks.  One was for fixing a bike tire with a dollar bill (she gave me a dollar bill).  Another was a bottle of champagne and a foam sword to sabrage a bottle of champagne (I’m not really sure how well it will work, but don’t tell her that!).  I also received balloons with which to make balloon animals.  See exhibits A and B of my new-found skill:
