Handy man
Inexpensive Stud Finder Kit
-One sturdy knuckle
-Power Drill
-Drywall Screws
-Provolone Cheese
Directions: Knock on wall until it sounds like you hit a stud. Drill a hole. Repeat until stud located.
We put up shelves at the apartment, and I realized soon that a screwdriver and power drill are not the only things you need to put up shelves. For one, a stud-finder would have saved us about 34 holes in our walls. Also, measuring the distance between the studs would have been the smart thing to do. However, without the stud finder, I was able to make an ungodly amount of stud finder jokes.
After we mounted the shelves, we discovered why people use levels. And why people who don’t have stud finders buy spackle. Provolone cheese works suprisingly well for filling the old holes.

That picture is mainly funny because you kept saying “A stud finder wouldn’t do any good because it would go off like mad because of me.”
Oh yea, sticky tack works pretty well too, I just tried it.

Steve January 27th, 2003 09:09 am
I think you guys have issues with keeping on topic.
Brad January 27th, 2003 10:04 am
What are you talking about Steve? Maybe in the Alias episode they repaired walls while watching the superbowl. I wouldn’t know, the sad and cheesy previews for Alias is what halted my viewing experience.
peter wilson January 27th, 2003 10:47 am
Dont ever judge a TV show by the preview. The network, seperate from the production company, makes the previews. The production company sends their finished episode to the network and the previews are then made, without any input from the makers of the TV show. Just for a non Alias example. Frasier is a paramount produces show that NBC buys. Friends is a Warner Bros. show purchased by NBC.
Please brad I beg of you, please don’t judge a TV show by its previews, but rather the first 5-10 minutes of the acutal show
I actually have to say that the episode of alias was the best episode of TV I have ever seen.
Brad January 27th, 2003 11:44 am
Please Pete I beg of you, don’t explain stuff. I’m only being sarcastic.
peter wilson January 27th, 2003 12:58 pm
I would not know if you were if fact being sarcastic as the preview was really really cheezy

Based on the commercials last night, it seems that the real thing superbowl viewers want to see more of is boobs.
I just wanted to see Gannon get sacked more. What a poor showing for the Raiders. I told you the buccs would pull it out, Bruce.
oh yeah, stay on topic.
Ryan January 27th, 2003 16:55 pm
Here’s some philosophy for you: If everyone started commenting about being off-topic, would that in itself be off-topic? And by commenting on this, am I being off-topic and inciting others to post off-topic? Wow, that’s deep.
Brad January 27th, 2003 17:07 pm
Ryan, you are so cool.

peter peter what a funny guy. i pray that you are actually kidding about alias. i tried to watch the first 5-10 minutes of it and i guess i can see now why guys dig jen garner. whats really funny/sad is that they actually have a poll on the abc website to determine which lingerie looked better! go figure. and yes, yes, as a member of the raider nation i have to say that was one of the most disgusting performances i have ever seen, we all cried ourselves to sleep at my house, lol. but hey, we can still riot like the best of ‘em!
bruce January 27th, 2003 20:42 pm
i think the lack of sacks on gannon is made up for by the super bowl record of 5 ints.
i wasn’t looking for more boobies. all i cared about was the daredevil, hulk, yao, and chan commercials. even though jen garner is in daredevil, i’m seeing it cuz of ben. sexiest man of the year!

I have sonaths e-mail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
greg January 28th, 2003 08:19 am
Peter, you gotta call him Bruce in public. The ladies dig it.
Marla January 29th, 2003 06:18 am
Let’s be honest here, Peter, what percentage of the time was there a woman wearing her underwear (or less) on the Alias segment that you so enjoyed? During the entire Superbowl I did not see one glimpse of a half-dressed man and yet I lost count at 35 or so of half-dressed women on the show.
When, and if, you see a somewhat naked man on T.V. it is usually someone like Jim Belushi. What a thrill!! No wonder many women find the superbowl boring … don’t even get me started …
Brad January 29th, 2003 10:05 am
booyah!
Marla January 29th, 2003 11:05 am
That’s so easy to say when you’re 1800 miles away.
Steve January 29th, 2003 15:03 pm
Ha! You tell ‘em Marla!
Candi February 10th, 2003 20:17 pm
Greggy,
This reminds me of when you and my bro were doing that wonder bathroom remodeling and you forgot to look for studs in the wall before punching a manly hole in the wall like my macho younger brother… and needless to say you know the rest… how did your hand feel again?
