Default Dumb and Dumber notebook

My husband keep a notebook of his dumb and dumber incidents. A particularly silly one involved his trying to use the electric drill to make a hole in the stone to mount a decoration at the front door. He couldn't get the drill to penetrate, so he went to the hardware store to get what he felt might be a stronger bit, but that didn't work, so he called a friend over who was a handyman and he took the drill and like magic, he drilled a hole. When Michael asked how he did it, he grinned and said, "it helps to have it off reverse!" Boy did Michael feel sheepish.

Another time, just before we were having a neighbourhood party, he thought he was being very careful as he sprayed the weeds with an herbicide but of course there were brown spots all over the front lawn. On the day of the party, a neighbour called out to him " are you spraying paint on the grass?" as he was covering up the spots with green spray paint. Another entry for the dumb and dumber notebook.
