[Spridgets] Spridget guys at BHF

[Wm. Severin Thompson]

I resemble that remark.

But I did pull a Healey 100-6 out of a barn yesterday. That was a chore, as
the trans was locked in gear.   And mistakenly thought I was young enough to
ride my old Shovelhead all the way from Princeton to Green Bay and back,
without a windshield, in the rain. (Felt like a constant birdshot in the
face... alternating with tent stakes driven into my forehead...)
