    $925 ?


    Yeah. In the old days, the pump was under the hood with the engine.
    Now... it's in the stupid fuel tank. The tank has to be drained and
    removed from the vehicle to get the pump out... time and moolah.

    But $925? How many kids is he sending through college?
    And why? They oughta' do what he's doing; more money!

    Headlight
    So, for $925 he did you a favor and put in a -headlight- too?
    WOW, what a deal !

    Too bad it wasn't me he was dealing with, he wouldn't have to
    turn a light on when he squats on the toilet at night...

    Well.... as long as you're back driving and the cars safe, that's
    all that counts.

    The guy that runs the place that works on my diesel knows I have
    colon cancer. He told me that I should have my oil changed every
    500 miles.... haha.. great sense of humor. Figures I won't last
    the 10k... Gotta' laugh 'till it hurts.

    Life' fun, ain't it?


    Stay well.
