I saw that movie when it hit the theaters. I was immediately in love with Yevette who later on committed suicide. I don't think it was me Mr. Green

I think I see your problem here. You shouldn't be looking in entertainment media for your role models, and if you had to it wouldn't be the likes of John Wayne, who squirmed his way out of WWII where many contemporaries volunteered.

All those guys are talented, but they would know more about pancake makeup than the down and dirty world.

Shocked Shocked


I'm good on all fronts except that there is NO way I am changing the oil on the corvette. I'm a man not a contortionist and I don't have a lift in my garage.

I am also sketchy on electrical wiring, but I will do something simple like fixtures.

Dennis


I've seen a couple of writers comment on the oil change thing, like it's the sole action that defines you as a "car guy" or "real man". I don't change my own oil; the money saved isn't worth the time spent. Plus, when I'm done, I have to deal with the drain oil and the used filter, and I've condemned five plastic bottles with traces of oil in them to the landfill, which is both wasteful and polluting. I have changed the clutch master cylinder and a thermostat housing, done the brakes and the battery, and replaced the valve cover gasket, but changing my own oil's not on the priority list.

It would be nice if more men had some idea what was going on under the hood, if for no other reason than to being able to talk intelligently to the person who is going to do the work. But changing your own oil, no, that's not necessary.

If you ever need to do some wiring, there are books that can tell you all you need to know. Standard household wiring is not difficult. I finished two rooms in my basement and did all the wiring with the exception of installing a breaker box. That I left to a professional. A man's got to know his limitations. Cool

Dennis, this is for you (I agree about Yvette):

Hey now, I'm an engineer... But in all seriousness, you are right, most engineers are "book engineers" and have no practical knowledge about how the real world works. Its quite sad really.

I guess I am in real trouble..............

I do not change my own oil. (I know how.) At over three gallons per change it is not worth the few dollars I could save doing it myself.

Yes, I can put on tire chains but would never be anywhere I would need them. I have never in my life had to shovel sunshine out of my driveway. You can keep the white stuff.

I was an electrical engineer but will not do anything more that change a fixture. Sorry, electricity scares the hell out of me!

And finally, I actually make money with a sewing machine........

As far as I can tell, Yvette Mimieux is still alive. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0590796/bio

I am often surprised at the can do guys, and the can't do guys. Personally, I just can't tell em by the way they look or act anymore.

One of my favorite scenes from a movie is from 6 days 7 nights when Anne Hecht asks Harrison Ford while they are standing helpless in the jungle. "aren't you one of those guys, you know, one of those guys that can build a shopping mall with a paper clip?"
