you tube

You tube will probably never be on a teacher's list of acceptable sources of term papers, but it probably should be.  I don't know who came up with the concept behind it, and while it does have an excessive amount of perverted posters and people who REALLY need to get a life, I LOVE it for being able to learn what I need on just about anything.

Have a leaking toilet and refuse to call the plumber for the third time (not for the same issue) this summer?  Use the search engine on Youtube, type in "how to fix a leaking toilet" and you'll get numerous videos to watch on how to do that very thing. After watching 4 Youtube videos and buying a $5 part at Lowes, I fixed my leaky toilet (yes, with much fear and trepidation). 

Want to get a graft from an old tree?  There are Youtube videos for that.  (can't speak for their success rate, though)

Quilting, exercising, pickling, cooking - it's all there.

So next time you're in a bind and not certain what to do...Youtube.
