Ladies, Fish, and Gentlemen,

Threw a rod in the car. Major bummer. No warning, just WHAM! Glad it didn't happen in Eugene. So, it's too cold to ride the bike, and my new tires for the truck are on order. Fug it. No Eugene this year.

Coors thirty.

Best regards,

Bonz

sorry to hear that mr bonz

hopefully you have nice bike weather until your truck is repaired!
now i don't feel so bad about not even trying to make eugene this year,
it would take a major effort to vaccuum my truck to ensure snooping noses don't find any "trace particals" in the cab - or any stray roaches long lost under the seat

Mr Bonz
In plain english that sucks. Why don't you have that bag of bones hotwire a new caddy or lincoln and go in style.Seems you are always going out of your way to help that derelict shuffling zombie and I would say payback time has arrived.

Since the newest vehicle I own is a '90, I live in considerable fear of expensive noises myself

Sorry to hear the gremlins picked on you [this time]. I have one on a charger right now, the battery won't even light the dome light

but that's no "biggie" compared to a rod.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, I too would love to go to Eugene, but the flight from Boston to Eugene would eat up any money I had for my favorite toys, I did however send a friend with a wish list, so maybe April will turn out ok for me. Mr. Bonz no trains or other transportation to get you there? Greyhound maybe? Well anyways, hope you have a good mechanic and go easy on that coors light. All the best

Greetings, Mr. Pushbutton-

Ah yes, we're in rare form today, 'eh? Got a succession of lucid moments right in a row, huh? Good one, gramps. At least it shows you still have enough spark in ya' to fill yer bedpan.

Mr. Doofus Emeritus-

Too bad about red's rod. If you are in need of transcendental transportation, perhaps I can come up with some little paper vehicles that you can use to travel through both time and space without leaving your occupied footprints....

AS ever,

Your ol' pal,

Wally J. Corpse

How many "R's" were you taching when the crank became separated from the piston?
