Taking the Scenic Route

The problem:  need to put up a pole for a satellite dish.  Do not own a pickup truck and all three of the people that can usually help aren’t available when I need them.  Requires getting an 8 foot fence post and another pipe home.  Must also have two kids in the car seats in the back seats, so inside the car is out.

The solution:  requires 2 shopping bags and a roll of duct tape.  Wrap the duct tape around the pipes to secure them together, then wrap it around the plastic bag repeatedly to make an anchor.  Shut the bags in the door and trunk.  Put on a ’safety line’ around the mirror and the bars that hold the trunk open.  No paint damage or dinging.  WooHoo!

  • If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn’t help the poor, either we’ve got to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are or we’ve got to acknowledge he commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don’t want to do it. — Stephen Colbert
