Back when I smoked, I called cigarettes "Thinkin' sticks". Taking one's time and thinking things through, or just breaking the brain away and coming back fresh were the usual root causes of the "aha" moments. I knew it wasn't the smoke, the smoke was just an excuse to break away from the problem for a moment. I have since had to find a new vice to excuse myself for a moment. I tried farting, but I couldn't really do it on command... so I resorted to coffee breaks.

So I realized I forgot to tell you how I fixed the problem. Some dude said to check the 3rd brake light, I did. It was out. I replaced it. No more problems. Nobody knows, he said he read about someone else doing it.

Reminds me that mine has been out for about a year and a half. How does it speed limit you at 45mph?

Something to do with the way they wired the circuit. It messes something up and makes the trans think its supposed to slow down.

i dont remember
