You can call me McGyver. Earlier this evening I fixed a 50 year old bathtub with a combination of parts stripped from odds and ends, sheer determination and a minmal amount of swearing.
I don't care if you are impressed or not, I am. Somehow it worked.
And on a note that is only going to be understood by some, I have an overwhelming urge to shout "Back off man, I am a scientist!"

Good to see that someone got the reference. Love that movie.
I am definitely impressed, Mc.
I couldn't fix a bathtub if I had the best parts and was guided by a professional.
For it to count as a real McGyver fix you need to include duct tape as one of the key resources used. Otherwise it's just impressive. :)
"McGyver."
Awesome! Scientists are creative...it takes a lot of creativity to be resourceful enough to fix a 50-yr old tub with a few odds and ends. :)
Prag,
Don't sell yourself short.
Ric,
You are correct, I bow my head.
Elster,
There is more to the story but I didn't want to brag. ;)
Inky,
I wish that my tub was only ten years old.
Chickadee,
I used my inner child. At heart I am still just a boy.
