Posted: 5/6/2008 5:40:24 PM | | Of all the laborious, back-breaking tasks that never go away, taping the ceiling would never have made it on my top billion list. Maybe she's got frequent-painter miles? | |

Posted: 5/6/2008 5:54:34 PM | Sillygoose: I MUST admit that I first laughed out loud when I saw the title of this thread until I read further and understood what you meant. LOL.
I, myself have found that I have learned by trial and error that there are many things that I can fix and do them "proudly" by myself.
I opened up a cabinet the other night and it almost fell off the hinge. I got out my "pink" toolbox...(YES...I said PINK)...took out my Phillips screwdriver, and fixed the cabinet myself. I was quite pleased.
I've been changing a/c filters, lightbulbs, etc. Might sound trivial, but any little thing that I can do by myself is something worth mentioning AND being proud of.
Patting myself on the back....

Posted: 5/6/2008 9:18:57 PM | You thought you needed a man to help you install the door but perhaps you needed one before that to help determine why and if you needed another one.
The door on my Jeep is falling off
Did you hit someone or was it just loose?
and I have a brand new door, But can't find anyone to put it on for me. I could pay a shop sure, but after paying 600.00 dollars for the door
Did you check into a junk yard door? I have some junk cars that don't cost that much. | |

Posted: 5/7/2008 4:17:20 PM | | Fixitfred, no I didn't hit anyone. The door itself dropped down enough to break it. I checked with all the junk yards and they wanted 500.00, so I just got a new one for 100.00 m0re. The door itself wasn't hard to put on but unhooking all the ele wires , and taking off my old lock and the mirror was the hardest. | |

Posted: 5/7/2008 4:26:32 PM | You need a HANDYman now. The kind that does odd jobs and are cheap.
I see that you got your door on. But keep in mind that we guys do have advantages but we do not like to be treated as hired help. | |

Posted: 5/7/2008 5:27:38 PM | | Tex. humm when I was married my husband took care of the car and I helped. If I didn't know how to do something and he did then he did it. When I cooked dinner, cleaned the house , and a thousand more things i didn't feel like hired help. The I need a man now was a joke because I was out fixing my door myself. I don't ask anyone for help and if I did , most likely it would be one of my female friends . | |

This is how the students learn and they are guided by ASE certified mechanics so it will be done correctly. Explain to the teacher what the situtation is and see what happens.
I know your car is fixed, but someone else might need the help. | |

Go straight to the community college and post an ad:

Posted: 5/8/2008 8:17:19 AM | To say you need a man in order to save on repair bills strikes me as mercenary.
I would hate to hear a man say he wants a g/f so he wouldn't have to do laundry anymore or have to pay the high price of a prostitute.
PS. Does FoolishManTool V6.0.2c come with a manual? | |

Your description of the attitude is spot-on. I was trying to think of the nature of her post and you NAILED it! Mercenary. Bingo.
"How utilitarian is our love affair!" What a great title for a romance novel back in the early days of Volkswagen... | |

Posted: 5/8/2008 9:41:36 AM | And here I was only thinking the OP's "Some days I say I miss having someone and other days I say God i'm glad i'm single" was the female equivalent of men just needing a woman around when we decide it's time to get a bedspread with a different design on it...

Posted: 5/8/2008 10:06:54 AM | | 600.00 looks like they would have put it on for you. with a jeep , i would not think it was to hard to put on as they are made to take off when you go off road . if you was close to kilgore,tx i would take a look at it . tom | |

Schady: I would have thought the feminist version would be called a womanual.
PS. And an ardent feminist would never be caught posting in a forum with "I need a man NOW" title! | |
