Does everyone think I am an idiot?  Of course I made sure ALL of the bolts
are out.  I will just keep trying, prying, and
pulling......................Oh, well would you look at that, two bolts
hidden under a bunch of sludge.  Let's take those out and..........boy, pops
right off.

Don't I feel stupid!

Thanks to G.L. Grumpy and Dave for stating the obvious and being 100% right.

Thank you
