Which BYC member scares you?

When I was a kid my dad would not allow an a/c in his house. He was a framing contractor (building houses and apartment complexes) and worked along side his crews. He always said the a/c would make it too hard to work in the Alabama heat. So, we always had the exhaust fans in the windows. The house we had was a very big 2 story house built in the 1800’s he had remodeled. I remember it stayed so cool in there especially at night with those fans.

He was right about the a/c ruining you for outside work or at least making it harder on you. I started working on one of his crews at age 11 and followed into the same business for awhile until I decided to go back to school. I of course live with a/c. I don’t think I could go back into that business now. I spend a lot of time outdoors but doing that very hard work all day now I doubt I could or at least it would be very very difficult.
I didn't have ac growing up either. Actually, my parents got it just a few years ago. I remember the exhaust fans in the windows too, good times. I wouldn't live without it now. My husband does building maintenance and is outside all year long. He wouldn't live without ac either. He gets so hot outside during the summer, he refuses to go home and still be hot
 
Let's see, in 7 and 1/2 years of marriage I can remember him using it twice. Once for making Christmas cookies and another time for cinnamon rolls.
He's probably innocent this time.
I would be surprised if my hubby even knew what a rolling pin was!

Hmmm...Maybe he needed to roll some plaster on a wall?
Every rolling pin is an impromptu hammer.
Mhmm. To be wielded with proper authority.
If you heard you say that he would revoke your man card.
He's given me an earful before for using things to hammer with that aren't hammers.
Hey, sometimes when you gotta hammer, you just gotta hammer. ;)

Would you not say that using a rolling pin to crush graham crackers or lumpy brown sugar (which is a v.common use) is using it as a hammer?
