Hi Vern! Enjoy that bourbon, but it may make you unable to read the books!

You've always been good Vern!
Steering wheels make a good support while driving but only look at the pictures!
We should have used that bourbon to aid getting that steering wheel off!! Pete W.

What I Got For Christmas
When filling the tank with non-ethanol fuel, I got a crack in the bottom of the years-old plastic bottle of Marvel Mystery Oil. I bought that MMM at a “everything on this table 50% off” sale at the local Ace Hardware. Bought two of them. Reasonable to presume they were many years old when I got ‘em. The trunk now has a delightful aroma of wintergreen. My hand smelled nice, too. Then there was a rivulet of gasoline running down my driveway, which I diagnosed as a carb float that filled with gasoline. Having replaced the float and buttoned everything up the glass fuel thingie started leaking. So after turning off the new inline ball valve I went back to bed. Oh yes, I did wash my hands first.

Those are incredibly good books. I am willing to bet you will go through them time and time again.
Enjoy!

Don't feel too bad Dave in San Antonio, I had my hot water heater in cellar let go for Christmas and my blower motor died in my modern truck during the 3 coldest days in years here.

Love Ford's Shaggy dog. For some reason they seemed to sell cars.

Of course Cal Worthington would stand on his head to sell you a car and his dog spot was never a dog.
