NICE! What a "CARD" you are. Money?!? You think you're good enough for mulla? Someone has a VERY HIGH opinion about themselves don't they? I was thinking more like a ratty Ol' pair of socks. [/quote]

With all the rust holes and bent panels!! Maybe I could put the socks in the holes and duct tape over. Wait I already did that...

As soon as the snow melts me has much body work to do to 2 vans. I have all the panels waiting for me...Thanks for the tape though. If they don't find you handsome at least they'll find you handy! LOL

happened to notice young family in car next to Aero, 2 yound kids in back seat.
husband and wife counting cash and going over grocery list. had their WIC kid food coupon book out. looked like maybe $20 in $1 bills total.
long discussion, 10 minutes or more between the husband and wife. both clean cut, not druggers. kids looked to be maybe 18 months and 3 in car seats, clean but lightly dressed for 40 d F cold windy blustery sleet raining day, no coats for kids dad or mom.

after the husband got out of their car, i made my decision. got out and asked him if he was out of work. he said laid off 4 months ago and barely scraping by.

gave him the large bills out of my wallet, enough to fill a grocery cart. he was embarrassed but very thankful.

Aero drove great on the way home, gonna keep it another 13 years.
WTG 96, should be more people in the world like you.
