I've been watching reruns on WGN, and it seems when he has a task he gets it done-and as long as he's not trying to go by one of Dick's how-to manuals:lol:
Torgo 03-17-2009, 06:30 PM :lol: The car would end up over a cliff and anything else would be smashed to bits. :rofl:

At least Balki would read the instructions. Witness this gem from the third season classic, "Pipe Dreams": :lol:
[Larry is installing a shower head]
Balki Bartokomous: Where are the instructions?
Larry Appleton: I threw them out.
Balki Bartokomous: You threw them out?
Larry Appleton: Appletons have never used instructions. My dad completely rewired the house in Denver without instructions.
Balki Bartokomous: Isn't that the house that burned to the ground?
[Larry pauses for a second]
Larry Appleton: [sheepishly] They never proved it was the wiring.

Did we include Howard Borden yet? :lol: I loved him, but still...:lol:
catlover79 05-22-2012, 03:22 PM Did we include Howard Borden yet? :lol: I loved him, but still...:lol:
Yes, we did - or I did to start this thread. :o :lol:
I'll add the Heck kids from The Middle - Axl would be too lazy, Sue would try TOO hard and get it all wrong, and Brick would be too easily distracted. He'd spot printed words, be it in a book, on a billboard, or on the side of the truck - forget it. :eek: :crazy: :lol:
Frankie and Mike, their parents, would be slightly better. Mike works at the quarry and is used to working with his hands - and Frankie, well, I'd feel safer with her around than her kids. :lol:
