PM put together a list of the 100 things that a man should be able to do. I heard about this on the radio this morning and the DJs were remarking that they only got about 25%. I'm not too shabby with SOME do it yourself things, so I thought I would at least take the test and see what I got.
Some of them are pretty basic, some are a bit more complicated. A few of the things I've seen, but never done myself (like using a stick welder). I'm pretty sure I could, but I didn't want to count it, since I didn't KNOW I could do it.
I think I can keep my man card, I got an 89%. Not too shabby. I think I'll growl a few times and go rewire a power supply!
