Or loosen any fittings.

Confucius say.. if you try to back out of your garage before opening garage door, you will have to call garage door repair man.

Make sure you have the coffee pot in before hitting the brew button. Not only did I make a mess but the coffee pot was broken after that.

Make sure you don't leave eggs boiling in a pan ... makes for one heck of an explosion, and a really messy ceiling!

Unless you really hate money, never put power steering fluid into your car's brake system.

Tet Tea, you and I have a lot in common, besides the garage door mistake.. I've done the "extra hard-boiled" eggs mistake too!

Besides the messy ceiling, it leaves a REALLY bad smell too!

At least it's not as bad as putting power steering fluid in the automatic transmission..
