Well Bill,
Thanks for sharing that... now, if you happen to have any spare lines on
your Last Will & Testament, or if you need to adopt a 44 year-old
Certified Triumph Nut (44CTN), then give me a holler... or as we say in
Boston, give me a hollah.
Sheesh.
As a method of balancing this post, I'll point out that every time I
think I'm close to getting my car going, I realize another $1k worth of
partZ are needed. So, although my birthday is coming up this weekend, I
realize that I'm not getting any new parts for the racecar as gifts. Most
of family is in worse financial shape than I. I should be putting the
motor in this week, but chances are I'll spend most of my non-existant
spare time working on my club's "award winning" newsletter. Or is that
"award whining"... it's one or the other.
Oh well.
Now back to your regular programming.
