  • According to Red's DVD biography, Red became the leader of Possum Lodge after gradually becoming more involved with it over time and becoming "the only guy nobody hated." At one point, he borrowed a large sum of money from his brother just before his brother lost his job. In repayment, Red employed his nephew Harold as the producer and director of The Red Green Show. In addition to being a handyman, Red also has several main philosophies in life, some of which are passed on to the Lodge as a whole. Chief among them is the phrase "Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati" (pseudo-Latin for "When all else fails, play dead"). He also concludes each of his Handyman Corner segments with the phrase, "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy." Red owns what is known as the "Possum Van", an early 80s model Dodge Ram cargo van, painted as a grey possum on a pale blue background, and with a license plate reading "POSSUM". It is one of Red's few vehicles that actually runs, and it has played (and donated) many parts in Handyman Corner projects. Red's dry, often sarcastic wit is balanced by a strong sense of camaraderie with his fellow Lodge members, partly because he directs most of his sarcasm toward Harold. Despite this, Harold and the rest of Possum Lodge seem to regard Red with a high level of respect, though occasionally some of the Lodge members will challenge his authority in one way or another. Red is probably best known for his fondness of duct tape ("the handyman's secret weapon"), which he sees as the solution to virtually every problem he faces. This leads to a severe panic on his part when the Lodge temporarily runs out of duct tape. * Debut: The Big Inboard * Final Episode: Do As I Do *
