    You guys are all missing the point here, at some time in the past,Briank must have fixed something around the house and did a good job. Now she thinks you can do anything she thinks needs doing. The trick here is to screw up so bad that she never asks you to fix anything around the house again, and when you actually offer to do something around the house she tells you no…just go fishing.

    If it was someone else that was doing all of this I’d think that this is the work of a true genius trying to drive his wife so crazy that she’d MAKE him go fishing every day just to get him out of the house!

    But since this is Brian, I think we can safely rule that out.

    Hate to say it BrianK, but you are in a lose/lose situation. If you change the fans (my vote) your wife knows she has you by the short hairs for all future projects and can play the trump card, if you stand you ground, there is no happyness for you for an extended period of time. I say buck up and get the project done. I do have to say, great job on holding off for a while, and letting her know that you will not roll over and let her have her way. In the future, she will realize that it just might not be worth the effort

    Stay strong, but in the end we all cave for the girls

    You know…a good day on the water would give you time to sort out your options, hook up the boat and drop the wife off at Menards to look at fans. She can clean and fry up some fresh fish while you ” read the instructions ” on how to put up fans.

    Briank;

    Have you or your favorite wife set a time limit on this pole? If not then you are in good shape. You can always say that all of the votes haven’t been counted, or Go the Florida way? That should delay it for quite some time. Happy fishing!

    I used your line Fishingbuddy…since I can’t repeat exactly what she said here…just know that I got more than the LOOK!

    I’m alittle surprised that the poll isn’t a little more lopsided…either way. In my book, it’s still pretty close.

    I know I’m going to have to do it…but I thought I would be able to point out that the whole world was on my side…

    So when unwiring, which wire is hot…white, green or black?

    Could be any one of them, color means nothing.

    If I were to guess I’d say the red one……

    Need to be careful with the wires, they are color coded different than in a boat. Green or bare copper is ground, white is hot, black is neutral. To be safe find the breaker and make sure the power is off, heck while you are at the breaker panel, shut off some other “non essential” things of hers and blame it on moving the ceiling fans around, if she starts in , hand her the screwdriver and pliers and say have at it.

    If you really want to get fancy, and your hot and cold water under the sink is hooked up with those nice little flex hoses, switch them and watch the fun begin.

    Just touch all the wires together. It helps you find which breaker it is and the sparks are pretty cool too.

    Nope,never met Putz, kind of fussy on the good looks, AND she has to weigh LESS than my tackle box. Hey maybe we could start a new forum here where singles could meet and the first date has to be a fishin trip !

    Rock…sounds like you know a bit about electricity….

    Does AC work like an electric fence?? If I hold her hand while touching the hot wire…will she get the shock??

    How did I get into this? I can cook, joke, fish, and looks are in the eye of the beholder. But he said gal, Brian, and I ain’t tucking the boys away for anybody.

    Thanks for busting the cartoon bubble in my head guys! The picture of Putz in lipstick and heels just short circuited my imagination.

    I need to dial up the Playboy website to get my thinking back on track!

    Oh yeah I have lots of pliers and screwdrivers with extra slots in them. If I can help in any way let me know.

    Hey Rock I don’t see your permit anywhere
    I’ll send an inspector over to make sure everything is up to code.
