How to make a paper crossbow.

I'm convinced this guy repeated grades in grade school.

1. Here are a few more productive uses of office supplies:

2. So the stuff you learn in grade school does transfer into the working years.

Very reassuring.

3. Everything you need to know you learn in kindergarten.

I had to cut a piece of Pergo flooring to match a really bad hack job someone did to avoid moving the refrigerator (I moved the fridge and finished the flooring). I would have just replaced the hacked piece but the idiot who put the floor in GLUED everything. Pergo snaps together like Lego and should not be glued. It has to float.

Anyway, I had to use a scroll saw to cut the pattern so I made a map by putting a sheet of poster board over the existing piece and using a pencil to make a map, much like you do with a penny. The piece I cut fit perfectly and it was short order to finish the rest of the area.

By the way, Pergo absolutely stinks when you cut it and even with a fresh blade it takes forever. Square cuts aren't so bad if you use a miter saw.

4. Damn. You must have been in an advanced Kindergarten class.

We were still using safety scissors.

6. So did we. Actually I'm pretty sure we either used those primary pencils or crayons for images.

You can use either, but pencils are more accurate.

Then again, I went to kindergarten when they still served frosted lemon cookies and orange juice for snack every day.

5. That's kind of cool.

7. They even have "how to make a paper gun" and AK-47 that shoots paper bullets.

Someone wasn't being supervised during detention, I think.

8. Really?

I don't waste my time looking for crap like that on the intertubes.

9. I forget what I started searching for, but I have a short-attention span issue in the morning,

before the coffee kicks in and I started following the links to the recommended videos.
