Anything Can Be Fixed



I like all three of these. I wouldn't be able to get through the morning without my coffee, so this idea may be a last resort, but heck, I would do this just to have coffee. I never would have thought of the clothesline trick on the windshield wipers, great idea though in an emergency.Note to self: Put some heavy string or clothesline in the trunk of the car for emergencies. And I may use some of the clips I have like these for the cables at my work space.

I really like the last one, with the clips! We've lost a computer to lightning and now we always unplug when it storms. This is a great idea to keep the cords from slipping behind the computer desk.

We use a lot of bungee straps and plastic cable ties. There isn't much that a cable tie can't sort out!

Creativity lives....great pics. I'm with you on doing whatever I have to to get my coffee in the morning.

Great ideas! I don't quite get out the windshield wiper thing works, but I'll definitely use that last one!

The top one looks dangerous, I am unsure about the clothesline on the wipers (but good idea in a pinch) and love the clip tip. I will use that one at my office!

Great first-world survival tips!

The windshield wiper one is hilarious. Though I wouldn't be able to employ that idea—I drive a manual. But, I can sure use the last idea at my workstation. That is great. Nice and organized rather than my usual tangled knots!

That clip idea for computer cables is brilliant. I'm gonna adopt that idea right now. Thanks.

the second one gave me an idea - heavier rope - strap my wife on the roof and have her reach down to move the wiper. - two problems solved in one.
just kidding!

Oh that clip one sure is popular. I always unplug before I head to Frank's for a few days and sometimes have to follow the wire to find them behind the desk. Cool idea. The first too.. head-scratchers.

I wouldn't do the first two, but the last one is great!

That third idea is genius! I just may give it a try at my desk!

Brian Miller said...
