    I think it's a dinosaur.

      Is the Natural History Museum aware? All their models look nothing like that! :laugh:

        It is indeed! The T-rex 🦖 would have been clearer, but I'm not that dangerous. Besides, T-rex went extinct because it couldn't wash its hands, though that shouldn't have been a problem because neither was it able to touch its face.

            Household plumbing and electric. Both are relatively easy as long as you pay attention and do the code research to ensure you're doing it right.

              What about squirrels? Bl**dy tree rats, our cats loved to eat 'em ... except the tail, they left that.

                  Before the T-rex was resized, I figured you might mistake it for a 🐿️. One of my uncles also referred to squirrels as rats "with a bushy tail".

                        Wrong. Evidently OriginalGriff's cats found them to be delicious and nutritious, so they are indirectly useful to at least that subset of humanity that loves cats. And more importantly, squirrel meat was the secret ingredient in a prize-winning chili at one Texas county fair!

                                      To do your own toilette paper. And leaving the jokes behind... To learn by yourself, to think out of the box, to be curious about things, to be humble but to be confident, to think fast and to speak slow, to be nice, to think twice about something if you are not sure about it, to pay attention to the details... And about coding skills... it doesn't matter that much. Whatever you want to do will be good, there is no saint grial and everything is good as long as you feel you can learn it correctly.

                                      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
