[Shotimes] The list shrinks and shrinks

[Mike Wojton]

I had a chnace to buy that car from Phil.  My car had just been totalled and
I was looking for another one.  I wish I would have bought it now.  I
definitely wouldn't have stripped it of all the good stuff and sold it off.
I thought it was too nice to drive year round through the Great Lakes
winters though.  I still kick myself.
