Bill the cat! That's it!
Cats can be very useful around the garage; one good use is as a shop rag.
One neighbor had a white cat that started hanging around my roadster. Until
it decided to take a rub underneath the roadster. The frame hadn't been
degreased in ages. Can you picture a reverse image of a skunk? The cat
owner freaked and I never saw the cat near my car again.
Another one got stuck under my mom's B110/1200 dash and I had to work an
hour yanking it out by the tail. Cleaned out all the dust and spiderwebs.
Yet another one hitched a ride home in the engine compartment for a 30 mile
ride. As a car horn they're not quite loud enough, as I couldn't hear it
until I pulled into the driveway. Any other good uses for cats?
