McGyverisms: A post about resourcefulness

I am doing a post about resourcefulness to see how well you think on your feet! I will give you three scenarios and a list of things that you have in each one. then you come up with a way you would get out of that scenario using random items of usefulness. then let me know what you came up with by leaving me a comment!

1. You were going on a camping trip and a punk shot a hole in your carburetor. The only problem is that you are a long way from any town or phone.
You have:

• Duck tape
• Swiss Army Knife
• Eggs
• Foam bed roll
• A small piece of sheet metal

2.  You are locked in old utility room in an old building that is on fire. The lock on the door is old and accessible from both sides of the door via a keyhole, but still very strong.
You have:

• Swiss Army Knife
• A sink that has running water and a drain that can be plugged.
• Drain cleaner
• A Co2 Fire extinguisher
• A nail

3. You are a secret agent trying to sneak important information out of an enemy country. But you were caught and are locked in a room. You have a plan to get out, but the problem with your plan is that your escape route is rather noisy, and the guards in the other room will hear you trying to get away. So you need to make some kind of smoke screen so when the guards come in, they wont be able to see you.
You have:

• A Swiss Army Knife
• Ashes in an old wood stove
• A Co2 fire extinguisher
• Paper
• Matches
• A 5 gallon bucket

Can you get out of these scenarios? Let me know!

Joke of the Week "A Prayin' Man"

Sorry it have slacked off again people. I am running out of jokes!

Two men, that were running from the police, crossed a farmer's field. But in the middle of the field, they were spotted by the farmer's bull. The bull started charging at the men and was quickly gaining on them.
One man said to the other, "Are you a prayin' man?"
"No!" The other man replied.
"Maybe it's time to start. Quick, say a prayer before we get killed by this bull!"
So the other man prayed the prayer that his father had prayed every night at the dinner table. "Lord, we thank Thee for what we are about to receive."

According to the Mayan Calender.........

The World will end in exactly 10 Months. If you believe that sort of thing!

The Problem With Big Brother's Boots

My older brother Chris just started going to police academy. (He is an EMT, Fire-Fighter, and now a Cop, going for them all!)
Well, when he goes to class, he needs to wear this weird looking uniform, ugly hat, a T-shirt that he has to iron, EMS pants and black boots.
Well, last Friday night he was trying  them on. (The boot) Nothing wrong with that. The "Problem" came when he tried to take them off. They were stuck, emphases on the STUCK! He could get one off, but the other wouldn't move! He pushed, pulled, shoved, tugged, it would not move for anything!
Then along came BUFF little brother (a.k.a. Me) and pulled it off just like that. OK, it wasn't just like that, it was more like, I pulled and it came off five minutes later. I pulled so hard on that boot that Holly had to hold Chris to the couch so I didn't pull him off it. So you could say that there was a severe amount of extreme muscular  force concentrated in a certain point for an aloted amount of time. Or, in other words, I pulled for a rerally LOOOOOOONG time!

The boot almost off!

The final tug!

And it's off!

 Unfortunately, there are no good photos of me showing off my incredible buffness

The Victor!

The victim getting up after the amputation.
NOTE: Holly didn't think I could do it!

So I guess that it can be said now and through the age: Lil' buff boy beat big brothers bad boots, bad!

Thanks to my wonderful older sister who made me this cool header and button for my blog! (She dictated this post!)

I was going to put this on my blog....

But my sister put it on hers first. Click here here to see this video from Courageous!

Joke of the Week! "We are all thinners."

A paster wanted to paint his church, but was only able to collect enough money to buy 2 gallons of paint.
In order to help strech it out a little more, he added a lot of water. When he was done painting, he went home.
That night, there was a rain storm and  when the paster went back the next day, all of that paint had washed off the church. then the paster prayed "Lord, what should I do? I have no more money and no more paint." and God answerd, "Repaint and thin no more!"
