'''Don't be shy.''' Can you do something that other people find useful, entertaining, or impressive? Don't hide it under a bushel! Instead, post here. Put your proficiency in parentheses. Add new categories and skills as appropriate.
This page was getting pretty big and hard to navigate/read/edit, so it's broken into categories. Consider this the "Miscellaneous Skills" section.

===Change a Tire===[[Jono Dowse]] barks back at dogs that chase him on runs; they retreat in fear.
[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=06dr David Rodriguez '06] has changed more than his fair share of tires and learned that salt+rust will effectively glue a wheel onto the axle. Solution? Wedge the flat edge of your hubcap-removal tool into the jammed area and whack the crap out of it with a hammer. Eventually, if you're lucky, that wheel will pop right off.==Cat Meow===
===Jumpstart a Car===Alexa Herlach and she does it often.
[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=06dr David Rodriguez '06[Julianne Shelby] has also had his fair share of car jumpstarts and knows not to connect the black plug to red and red plug to black. If you do, you will blow the battery fuse in your fusebox and burn out some expensive component in your car. Through his learning processes, he found ] is probably just how costly it is to replace the stock amp that powers your stereo.actually a cat

Jason Ren (I can do everything listed AND Etc.
