So I get to go back out to Randy's tonight. He is there getting his house packed up and put into a moving truck for the drive back out to Iowa.
Well we arranged it so that all of the vehicles are now out there except his old '77 Buick Skylark. So we get home from the airport last night and I jump in the truck and I'm gone, I had to go get my dog before she chewed up anything else.
At about 10:00 last night he realizes the Buick won't start (bad starter) and today Randy is stuck at his house with no car and no food and I guess he's starving to death. I finally got him to order a pizza so that I don't have to leave work early.
Sorry had to share that. Thought it was funny that he's sitting there, starving to death, waiting for me to show up. And here everyone thinks I rely on him..

My thought is, if you don't know how to spell something when you're posting, just look it up online -- you're already on the internet, just go to dictionary dot com or google it. Just a pet peeve of mine I guess.
Good tip, and I agree. I bagged and labeled some of the important bolts. I do remember that as I was taking it apart, I was being concious to the fact that I was going to have to put everything back together. I have a feeling that once I start putting things back together, most of it will drop right into place. I also have the habit of putting a bolt right back into the hole it came from when a part has been removed, so there's no question of where it goes.

Donuts...not a chance. I didn't say it set me off...just had the thought. Nothing against you at all, kiddo. 
I see I'm not the only one who thought that.
It must just be one of those days. Lisa, I'm sure you've had them too. I've got the TV on in the background right now, as I grab some dinner (BTW Lisa, I'm glad I called you and you told me to fix something or I might have starved. LOL...poor Randy.), and I hear them talking about penetrometers, flesh firmness, and cold showers. I'm like, what the heck are they talking about on the History channel now, and realize it's fruit.
I think I need to go to the garage and work on my truck.

I had a 10 years younger than me brother-in-law that was at a party in California in the 70's. He was the 19th car in a train, which caused me to think of strawberry filled donuts. I don't think he ate any donut that day though.
