Hey, if all of us who did something stupid were banned from the list, it
would be a REAL quite place! People ask me how I learned to do all the
repairs on my cars and I tell them I work of the two part plan. I buy a
part and break it while trying to install it, that way I learn how to do
it but have to buy another part.
In twenty some years I think I could have had a whole 'nother car! ;-)
