The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsThis is a true story...
The Lounge or Humor forums are usually the place for jokes, but swear to dog this is true. I remembered it reading another post here about fixing up houses and some owners not knowing tools it may not be exact but it dusted off this memory.
I was fixing or making something in the garage at the old farm. My two older kids, son and daughter who is 5 years younger were helping. I left my mobile toolbox in the chicken coop and I need a cross-hatch screwdriver.
I sent my son to get me a Phillips screwdriver from the toolbox, need a size that was there. Time passed
.and more
I was thinking he got lost as young teens often do so I sent my daughter to see what was up.
Round trip from the coop was about a minute in time so she soon returned with the previously requested screwdriver followed by my son.
I looked at him without a word said. He explained Dad, there is no Phillips screwdrivers in there
only ones named Stanley.
