Today is the birthday of Richard Dean Anderson who played the mullet wearing Macgyver for all seven seasons. Even though the show is beginning to show it's age, I still love watching them. In fact, I am almost done watching the whole series. I am in the middle of the short seventh season.
His ingenuity and resourcefulness is so fun to watch even though sometimes it true to life, but heh its a TV show. Moreover I love the attitude towards life that it conveys; that you take what you have and make the best of it. Even though his life-threatening situations are common for us, this survivalist attitude should be. I want to appreciate that I have the means to accomplish so much even though it might not be immediately apparent. I might have to step back and look at it from a different angle, something that MacGyver did every time.
It's too easy to say 'I can't.' Think about it next time you do.
This is my favorite Macgyverism. What's yours?
