HOWARD’S DAILY CHRONICLE
NUMBER 25 VOL 11
JUNE 25TH 2008
WEATHER; HOT, HIGH HUMIDITY, 72/98 DEGREES
I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING IN THE ACCLAIM WENT OUT YESTERDAY! MIKE HAD SERVICED IT 2 WEEKS AGO AND COULDN’T FIND ANY PLACE WHERE IT LEAKED! KELLY CHECKED IT YESTERDAY AND FOUND A BUNCH OF LITTLE PIN HOLES IN THE DRYER SO THAT’S WHERE WE HAVE BEEN LOSING FREON BUT IT WAS SO SLIGHT IT DIDN’T SHOW UP WHEN MIKE TESTED IT! I CALLED AND ORDERED A NEW DRYER THAT CAME IN TODAY AND KELLY PUT IT IN AND ADDED FREON AND STOP LEAK! NOW WE’LL SEE HOW LONG IT LAST, IF THIS FREON LEAKS OUT I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO LOOK, I’VE BEEN ALL UNDER THE DASH WITH AN ELECTRONIC DETECTOR AND ALL OVER THE HOSES AND CONNECTIONS INCLUDING THE EXPANSION VALVE AND DIDN’T FIND ANY LEAKS! THE ONE PLACE I HAVEN’T CHECKED IS THE CONDENSER BUT, ANY LEAK THERE WOULD SHOW OIL AROUND IT WHICH I’D BE ABLE TO SEE UNLESS IT ON THE SIDE TOWARDS THE RADIATOR, I HOPE IT NOT THE CONDENSER! IF IT IS POSSIBLY THE STOP LEAK WILL TAKE CARE OF IT!
GLENDA AND HALEY JO TOOK US TO BONHAM AND TO THE AUDIOLOGIST OFFICE TO DROP OFF THE REPORT FROM THE BONHAM AUDIOLOGISTS! THEN WE WENT TO LUNCH AND THEN HOME! THIS RUNNING AROUND REALLY EXHAUST ME, WHEN WE GOT HOME I SAT IN MY CHAIR AND WAS ASLEEP IN A MATTER OF MINUTES! I WOKE UP WHEN KELLY CAME IN TO GET THE KEYS TO THE ACCLAIM SO HE COULD PULL IT DOWN IN THE SHADE TO WORK ON IT! MOM STAYED DOWN WITH KELLY TO HELP HIM IF HE NEEDED ANY! WE’VE HAD A LEAK IN THE POWER STEERING EVER SINCE WE’VE HAD THE CAR BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND IT, WE JUST ADD FLUID WHEN IT GROWLS! WE’RE GOING TO TRY SOME NEW P/S STOP LEAK AND HOPE THAT WILL TAKE CARE OF IT! I DON’T LIKE TO FIX THINGS LIKE THAT BUT, THIS HAS GOT TO BE SO SLIGHT IT TAKES QUITE A WHILE FOR THE P/S TO GROWL!
I BOUGHT SOME J.B. WELD STICK EPOXY AND AM GOING TO SEE IF IT WILL STOP THE RADIATOR LEAK IN THE INTREPID THIS IS THE LAST RESORT, AFTER THIS IT’S A NEW RADIATOR! I’M STILL LOOKING FOR THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR, INFACT WHEN I’M DONE WITH THIS ISSUE OF THE CHRONICLE I’M GOING ON LINE TO GOOGLE AND SEE IF THEY CAN TELL ME WHERE IT’S LOCATED ON THE ENGINE!
MORE FROM ARCAMAX!
ANYONE FOR A CIGAR
A DEFENDANT IN A LAWSUIT INVOLVING LARGE SUMS OF MONEY WAS TALKING TO HIS LAWYER. "IF I LOSE THIS CASE, I'LL BE RUINED!"
"IT'S IN THE JUDGE'S HANDS NOW," SAID THE LAWYER.
"DO YOU THINK IT WOULD IT HELP IF I SENT THE JUDGE A BOX OF CIGARS"
"NO! THE JUDGE IS A STICKLER ON ETHICAL BEHAVIOR. A STUNT LIKE THAT WOULD PREJUDICE HIM AGAINST YOU. HE MIGHT EVEN HOLD YOU IN CONTEMPT OF COURT."
WITHIN THE COURSE OF TIME, THE JUDGE RENDERED A DECISION IN FAVOR OF THE DEFENDANT. AS THE DEFENDANT LEFT THE COURTHOUSE, HE SAID TO HIS LAWYER, "THANKS FOR THE TIP ABOUT THE CIGARS. IT REALLY WORKED!"
CONFIDENTLY THE LAWYER RESPONDED, "I'M SURE WE WOULD HAVE LOST THE CASE IF YOU'D SENT THEM."
"BUT I DID SEND THEM.", REPLIED THE MAN.
"WHAT?" SHOUTED THE LAWYER?
"I SURE DID, THAT'S HOW WE WON THE CASE... GOOD THING I REMEMBERED TO ENCLOSE THE PLAINTIFF'S BUSINESS CARD."
THE OLDER GOLFER
"HOW WAS YOUR GOLF GAME, DEAR?" ASKED JACK'S WIFE TRACY.
"WELL, I WAS HITTING PRETTY WELL, BUT MY EYESIGHT'S GOTTEN SO BAD I COULDN'T SEE WHERE THE BALL WENT."
"BUT YOU'RE SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS OLD, JACK!" ADMONISHED HIS WIFE, "WHY DON'T YOU TAKE MY BROTHER SCOTT ALONG?"
"BUT HE'S EIGHTY-FIVE AND DOESN'T EVEN PLAY GOLF ANYMORE," PROTESTED JACK.
"BUT HE'S GOT PERFECT EYESIGHT. HE COULD WATCH YOUR BALL," TRACY POINTED OUT.
THE NEXT DAY JACK TEED OFF WITH SCOTT LOOKING ON. JACK SWUNG, AND THE BALL DISAPPEARED DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE FAIRWAY. "DO YOU SEE IT" ASKED JACK.
"YUP," SCOTT ANSWERED.
"WELL WHERE IS IT YELLED JACK” PEERING OFF INTO THE DISTANCE.
"I FORGOT."
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE
