Pardon My Brief Absence Here--Back ASAP

I'm having crisis after crisis at home right now! I've got to attend to some car problems which just can't wait; then I can tackle other matters, including posting and commenting here. I hope to have everything straightened out in just a few days.

Thank you for understanding.

I hope your car problems get resolved. The locals around here seem to think I am the luckiest man alive. I entered my car in a snow storm . A tree cracked and fell on me with no damage to the car or myself. It was the top of the tree.

I am the first person who can say the tree really was moving when it hit me.

Cars are the devil. I was talking to my buddy over at "GreenLifeIsTheWay.org" and he was telling me how cars are destroying mother earth, and if we could just get back to all riding horses and walking, our world would be so much better.

We could then end war and spend allt he money we use for cars on feeding the handicaped vertically challenged peoples of Tibet, and then form a giant chain, around the world sining "Peace is Green-er-ific"

Anyway, sorry to hear about your cars AOW>

Bummer. It's the perversity of the inanimate! I just hope it's not the transmission.

We used to have a two-cylinder Honda on Guam that you could hear from about two miles away, and you started the engine by turning on the windshield wipers--no kidding!

I hope repairs are far enough along to listen to "car stories" and laugh...

You're missed but take care of the home first - the battle will be here when you get back.

I thought I was the only one that had this stuff going on. Hope you get things taken care of soon. God Bless America, God Save The Republic

To all:
Thank you for your kind wishes.

I'm back on the road now--after three flat tires within 24 hours: one flat due to a defect (with excellent tread but with cracks in the sidewall), two tires with nails in them (both nails picked up within just a few blocks from home, thanks to the construction boom here), and one spare with an inexplicable hole in the tire.

Just what are the odds of, within four blocks from home and while on the way to NTB, having a flat tire on the Mustang, which my husband was driving, for safety's sake, behind my car on the way to NTB to deal with my car's defective tires? Murphy's Law applies here: "What can go wrong, will go wrong."

My father's last gift to me before he died was a portable air tank. If not for that air tank, we'd have had a real problem!

So, today I have wheels again, and my husband celebrated his birthday, one day late, by running the Mustang at the drag strip.

What a headache that must have been. So glad it's fixed up now, AOW. What a drag!
