H A H !!!
In 1975, I got orders to Groton CT. So off I go in my little
Fiat, from Idaho to CT in three days. No problem... crap, she's
running on three cylinders. (Ever drop a cylinder in a 4-banger
Fiat? Your Grandma could push harder.) Idaho was OK, but in Wyo
I got into some hills. Floor it downhill, and you might just
make it up the other side in a 3-cylinder X-1/9. But that means
you're doing 85 through the bottom as you start up the other
side. So, naturally, that's where the heat waits. B*stard
didn't buy my story and wrote me my very own ticket.
Well, that was 1975... and it's still unpaid. Screw it and them.
