Sometimes you have to put in a screw in a place that you just can't get
your
hand in there and if you drop the screw you are totally hosed. I was
repairing a broken wire in my boat yesterday and ran into one of those. Of
course it's a stainless steel screw so a mag tip wouldn't work.

I couldn't find any of the screw holder screwdrivers I used to have, and it
was late enough I wasn't confident in finding one at any stores that would
still be open. I considered making one, but thought maybe somebody else
would have a better solution.
I did a search for DIY screw holding screwdriver or something like that and
found a good tip that worked perfectly.

Poke the screw through some cling wrap.
Place the screw on the screw driver.
Wrap the cling wrap around the screw driver to hold the screw firmly
against
the tip.
Start the screw a couple threads.
Pull back the cling wrap and screwdriver to tear the screw through.
Remove the cling wrap.
Tighten the screw the rest of the way.

Its simple, elegant, works very well, and I wish had thought of it.

Much better and more sanitary than the boogers I've been using for decades.

Well, you've never had to worry about running out have you? ;-)

Can you fart at will? (maybe you're the wrong guy to ask)

With the medication I'm on? NO.


Unless of course you're in Church!



Not even then.



How about snoring in Church? Last Christmas a lady in a wheelchair in the handicap
section with her head back and mouth open was about to receive communion from a young
Eucharistic minister and just as he was about to place the Host on her tongue she let
out a good snore. The look on his face was priceless and the three rows behind
couldn't contain their laughter.
