What was the name of that little guy in the "L'il Abner" comic strip who
always had that black cloud over his head?

Let's see....
- tractor cluch crapped out: parts $1000, labor 10 unpaid knuckle skinning
hours so far to split it in half . Still waiting on 2 bearings and a
linkage....
- wife totalled her car : out of pocket for new wheels $5,800 (she's
finally recovered from the airbag's roundhouse right ...)
- plumbing flood on first floor and crawlspace: $13,700 Thanks to Chubb
Insurance's "get it fixed, send us the bill and get back to life" zero
hassle claim service. Even so, we're still cooking and washing dishes on
the back deck and the remodeling has eaten about sixty hours of our time
that we really don't have to spare...
- Drag car wouldn't fire up after driving onto the trailer and wasting
nearly a C-note in gas to haul it to the race track and back last Sunday.
Still haven't figured it out (intermittent fuel pressure and spark)
- Shifter kart wadded up a chain during race on Memorial Day and took out a
brand new tire and brake assy.
But today's our anniversary - we spent the whole day at Norfolk's
HarborFest/Parade of Tall Ships - forgot all about the minor
inconveniences that sometimes take the focus away from what's really
important - stuff like cutting and grinding and welding for fun...
