They were giving him a new battery! I asked him how come he hadn't replaced his alternator as it's obviously not charging the no good batteries (this guy was being a real *** to the girl working the counter) he looked at me like I had just walked off the saucer from Mars and said " that wouldn't make the battery light go on! Do you think im that stupid?" I replied "yes!"

LOL dont you just love doing that?? i dont like to open my mouth in situations like that unless i am 100% sure cause i dont wanna be the dumb one... but when it comes to automotive and situations like that i love making people seem stupid when there being completely dumbfounded. and bill at least its not a hard job to do, toughest part is standing the heat.

sure! but it would cost us $$$ to get it done(TSHIRTS that is) and any changes to the logo would need to be voted on by the chapter and then approved by the Admin. but dont let it stop you when i got here there was no chapter logo.

Did you know... the AZ Chapter was the very first state chapter on FTE!

Good Morning Az Peeps! Zack, Monty says he'll take care of you're kitty cat problems! Free of charge! He is a very helpful dog, I don't have any cat problems! (well.... They just learned to keep quiet, & that fat Monty can't fit under the bed, or under anything for that matter!) but regardless, Monty and Ubu can come over for an hour, and it should take care of things!
Jim...& fat Monty & Ubu
