Oh UPS, don't get me going on parts houses (orielys).

The other day i went and asked the kid for a 12" braided battery ground cable. He said what is the make and model of the car? i said no particular make and model that is the cable I need. He said sorry if I cant look it up i can not get it. I said cant you go back and look where you keep your battery cables? He said not without the make and model. i said its for a 29 Ford Model A. He said oh, our books don't go that far back. GEEEEZ.

I went across the street and asked for a 12" braided battery cable (federated auto parts) and the guy said, I will be back in 20 seconds, i know exactly where they are. He was back in 15 seconds and i was out in 30 seconds.
