Hah.
TB — (archived)

I take out the garbage, do the cooking, pick up the house, do the yard work, cut up fallen trees, keep three cars running, and fix plumbing, sprinkler pipes, lights, wall wiring, and appliances (except for the microchip stuff.) I built a cement sidewalk. Last weekend I asphalt-patched a roof leak, on the roof, in the rain.

I've rebuilt an entire bathroom, but it wasn't fun. I've equipped the whole house with handrails. I drive my wife to and from work, and bring her lunch. I keep her motorized chair and car lift running, too. She makes as much money as I do. Many years, it was more.

I also keep six computers running and safely networked, along with all the peripherals and printers.

I am, however, quite pleased that modern VCR clocks reset themselves, and have replaced as many clocks in the house as I can with those "radio" jobs that set themselves. Hey, I'm lazy. What can I say?
