My mom was a master at making these free book covers.Does anyone remember makin book covers outta paper bags?
One of our projects was making an ash tray.Who took shop class back in the day
Shop class – theses courses are needed so bad today
At that time, I was able to type at 80 WPM, with around 2% spelling errors from copy.
Ok, I give up! What are those
Yup, took shop class 'cause I received a D on making an apron in Home Ec classWho took shop class back in the day

I cannot for the life of me sew 
I nearly flunked out of that class cause of that flaw Thank goodness I could bake ! It saved me from an F 
Curb feelers. For parking. So you don't hit your wheels on the curb.Ok, I give up! What are those
I don't remember much of my childhood, but I do remember this....one afternoon I was really hungry, don't recall if mom was asleep (she worked night shifts) or gone. Had a few Mac n cheese in the cabinet, so decided to make some. Oy veh
the first one I totally messed up, in the trash it went, round two, uh oh another in the trash, the third one haha finally I could eat. 
thinking something is wrong with my brain, lol, I can't even cut a straight line on a doted line just imagine trying to sew in a straight line, wasn't happening. To this day, it's the same, lol. This I did give up on that easily.
I think, people still need them !
That's kind of the thing. Sometimes, necessity is not only the mother of invention, but also the teacher of skills. I could sew together a sleeping bad from a comforter, a zipper, and a roll of 80 pound test braided fishing line.I don't remember much of my childhood, but I do remember this....one afternoon I was really hungry, don't recall if mom was asleep (she worked night shifts) or gone.

Yes, as you, I was self taught on how to cook/bake. I don't know how many recipes I goofed up, but I dont give in that easily, do it till I get it right.
Sewing, well, sewing to me sucks
Winner, yup, we always called it the dimmer switch
I know it was a lot easier to hit the beam switch in-order to warn on coming traffic about a cop sitting waiting for a speedster to pass by'em
So you can't record over it
Actually, tapes had little tabs that got broke off after being recorded on. To tape over those recordings, you had to put tape over the holes in the corners. I never got in trouble for listening to Motley Crue and AC/DC on a Barry Manilow tape as long as I was using earphones.
Lmao, that guy had the same haircut for 40 yearsBob Keeshan as “Captain Kangaroo” (also, at times, “Mr. Pennywhistle”, “Mr. Doodle”, “Wally”, and “The Town Clown”), reading ‘Treasure Island’, with, sneaking up from behind, Hugh “Lumpy” Brannum as “Mr. Green Jeans” (and also, at times, “The New Old Folk Singer”, “Percy”, “Uncle Backwards”, “Mr. McGregor”, and “Mr. Bainter the Painter”), on the iconic classic children’s television programme series on the CBS Network “Captain Kangaroo” (1955-1984), that had an incredible 29 years run. Episodes were then reformatted to play as re-runs on PBS until 1993.
When I was young and studied at the Art Students’ League in Midtown Manhattan in New York City in the 1970’s, I used to see Bob Keesham (AKA “Captain Kangaroo”) occasionally on The Harlem Line of the Metro North Railroad heading up into Westchester County. So recognizable with that haircut, you couldn’t miss him. He would always fall fast asleep right after boarding, after what I assume, was a strenuous day of filming in the television studios. Just before his station ‘Crestwood’, the stop just before ‘Scarsdale’, and the stop just after ‘Tuckahoe’, the conductors, who all knew him, would sprint to where he was sitting and wake him up. What I remember so distinctly is how much all the conductors on the railroad completely adored him.
