Ok, so i have an assignment for my technical writing class. I need to write a set of instructions on how to do something. Like build something, or teach something etc. I have to demonstrate this 'thing' and show it and instruct it to my class. I have about 12 class mates for this course. Soo, i have to have visual aids as well. But i am stuck on a "HOW TO" idea. So, if any of ya'll have ANY ideas of what I can teach my class, that would be GREAT!! Thanks

heh, that is nice and simple...
you could do changing oil, installing almost any car part (springs, exhaust, intake, body kit, etc), how the tranny shifts gears, I dunno...
my best advice would be write about something you know a lot about so if questions are asked you will be on top of it...

ok, thanks for the ideas..BUT, i have to be able to do it within the classroom...AND one catch, is that later on in the year we have to right a speech on the same topic, and the speech has to be 20-25 minutes long. So in other words, i need a topic that i can blab on and on about for 20minutes. So ya I'm still in the dark as to ideas. The teacher wants somethign prety creative and I am having a hard time thinking of what to do..so just shoot ANY ideas my way..PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! thanks guys/gals:yes:

Wash car...but i can't show people..unless i take pics or draw diagrams
Steps would be something like this
1. Rinse Car
2. Wash off clumps of dirt and dust
3. Use a soap/water mixture and sponge off the car with lots of water
4.Rinse car again.
5. Use a sponge shammy thingy to dry the water drops off of the car
6. Repeat steps 3 -5 if necessary
7. Park car in shady spot
8. Use a quick detailer such as "meguira's quick detail wax spray" and apply to small sectoins of the car
9. Use a terry cloth to buff the wax into the cars paint
10. quickly use a shammy to wipe the wax off, be sure to remove ALL the wax
11. repeat to the entire car
12/ you are left with an incredibly shiny car, now go pick up the hotties
Something like that right??

Have you ever taken a computer apart to put in more RAM or a new disk drive, or taken any piece of electronic equipment apart to troubleshoot/fix?

nope, but i need more RAM so I might have too soon.

Adding RAM is real easy and will only take about 5 minutes, you can also add a network card if you want. Tech Depot online has several online tutorials to help you out.
