> Hello All,
> Tom's sense of humor comment got me to thinking about last night..
> My girlfriend and I were working on the car.. I was wrapping my header with
>insulation tape and she was cleaning up the wiring harness... It was warm in
>my garage so I was wearing shorts.. After about ten minutes my hands and legs
>started to ITCH considerably... Gee I thought, I bet this header tape is
>probably made with fiber glass and now I have thousands of microscopic
>splinters on my hands/legs.. Sure would be nice if the directions mentioned
>that you should be covered up......gotta have a sense of humor.
> After that I went to check up on Irene and noticed that she had done a
>good job of cleaning up the connectors and cleaning up the tape wrapped wiring
>bundles.. I notice a smudge on the left front fender.... I look closer... HOLY
>SH*T that's not a smudge it's a series of DEEP squiggly scratches in the paint
>where 'someone' had been resting her full weight on the fender and sliding
>around while she was working........gotta have a sense of
>humor..ARRRRRRGHHHH!!!
> Or how about how I can clean-prep two seemingly similar pieces but when
>I paint one (with the expensive POR-15) it wont stick but the other piece it
>coats as advertised....gotta have a sense of humor...
> Or how I went to just about every hardware store in the city looking
>for a 4.5 inch metric bolt but NONE of them carried it???

> I swear I never realized what a pain in the caboose this little resto
>project was going to be.... Sometimes I can just KICK myself...'Sure it will
>only take a weekend to completely redo my rear end..' yea right...
> Can you tell I am just chock full of roadster aggravation..
