Handy Wednesday, Dec 13, 2006 11:49 am

Scott Adams (the Dilbert guy) writes offensive, political, gross, and sometimes hilarious things in his very own blog.  Yesterday was a hilarious day.  He wrote about his lack of handy-ness when fixing things around the house.  He often uses a hammer and a screwdriver to disassemble delicate things, and he later fixes the broken parts with duct tape or "a process I call 'jamming it in there'".  By far, the best statement in his post was this:  "I go through life like Helen Keller in a room full of Rubic's Cubes."  Genius. 

On the topic of being handy, Wendy works with a guy who has a young son.  The guy was doing color flash cards with his son and he showed him a card with a brown teddy bear on it.  The guy asked, "What's this color?"  His son said, "Yellow."  The guy said, "No, it's brown."  He went through a few more different color flash cards and eventually got back to the brown teddy bear.  He asked, "What's this color?"  His son said, "Yellow."  The guy looked at his wife and said, "Let's hope he's handy." 

On a final note, "Handy" is the name of Satchel's watch in the comic Get Fuzzy
