Hate to waste your time on this... but it was to funny not to mention....

The Machine shop I use... used to do auto repairs.. and they had a customer
who was a major Horses ass.... he insisted on getting this ring and pinion
set back that had been destroyed ... 

So Billy and Johnny put that set in his trunk... just like the man told
them to.... and they left it there in the Sun to bake for the afternoon
waiting on him to Pick up the car.... The fella didn't show up for three
days.... I will leave the Smell to your imagination... but I bet that car
still Stinks to High Heaven
Keith
