Scott:

Take your wife out to dinner. Order venison. Have the waiter put 3 forks on
one side of the plate and 4 large nasty looking knives on the other. Make a
sign that says "Revenge is a dish best eaten cold, but hot is good too!" and
put it on the table. There is only one wine to order for this dinner,
"Stag's Leap". She'll feel better and you'll laugh about what was a lucky
escape.

Have fun!

So having had the luxury of 3 working cars (2 Triumphs, 1 old Integra) for a
couple of weeks now . . . I decided last night to tinker with one of the
Triumphs and took it apart for a non mandatory repair.

Around 10:30PM the garage door opens and there's my wife in her Integra,
crying, with the entire side of  car all smashed up.

Some stupid deer on the Dulles Toll road decided to try and push her car off
the road.

Oh and to top things off . .it was her birthday yesterday.

So now I'm down to the old TR4 . . . I had to drive her to work (20+ some
miles) and then me.
Its that time of year where I go to work and return home in the dark.
The TR-4 generator doesn't like to run lights and the heater.
If I leave the windshield wipers on for more than a few minutes It'll blow a
fuse.

Guess I better put that TR6 back together eh?

I guess I'm not going to be able to make it down to VIR for the vintage
races this weekend.

Wahhh!

Okay . . I feel better. 

Anyone have some cheese to go with my whine?
