Looks around and notices the dust on the chairs.

Been pretty slow here at night.

Most of the activity is still in the mornings.

Well, Sean it's slow because of the flashing lights you've got there.

Even if someone is doing 60 in a 65 when they see a cop they slam their brakes and drop to 45. Every single time.

Sorry Don & Sean, but I've been too preoccupied researching the wheel/tire combo and now the differential/RP combo to get around New England to chat.

Hi Dave!
I will go to Stamford tomorrow.
Need to look at a job in CosCob and pick up my mail.
Get a haircut and my laundry.
I do have someone else to meet in Southport. When do you think you'll be done at the hot rod shop?
