JUNE 9TH 2008
WEATHER; WARM, HIGH HUMIDITY, 70/90 DEGREES
MOM AND I WENT TO TOWN TODAY AND TO LUNCH! WE’RE STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE INTREPID THINGS WE THOUGHT WE HAD CURED NOW HAVE POPPED UP AGAIN! LOSES SPEED, POPS BACK THROUGH THE INTAKE ON A PULL, ROUGH IDLE AND SOMETHING NEW, A LEAK IN THE RIGHT HAND PLASTIC RADIATOR TANK, IT’S A SERIES OF SMALL CRACKS I THINK WE CAN FIX SINCE IT’S IN THE TOP END OF THE TANK WHERE IT’S FLAT! SOMEONE EITHER KNELT ON IT OR USED IT FOR A PLACE TO PUSH OFF FROM WHILE WORKING ON THE CAR! I’VE WONDERED WHY IT WAS GETTING HOT WHILE WE SAT IDLING, THE COOLING SYSTEM COULDN’T BUILD PRESSURE AND IT NEEDS THAT TO EFFECTIVELY COOL! WE HAVE SOME DIFFERENT TYPES OF GLUE AND EPOXY SO WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIND SOMETHING THAT WILL WORK SO THAT’S MINE AND MOMS PROJECT FOR TOMORROW! ON THE CHANCE THE TRANSMISSION IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM I PUT A PT OF B-12 IN IT TODAY! IT SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION HAS A BRAKE IN IT THAT GET APPLIED AND WHEN I FLOOR IT, IT SHIFTS BACK INTO PASSING GEAR THEN IS OK FOR A LITTLE WHILE! WE’LL SEE! WE NEVER HAVE SERVICED THE TRANSMISSION, THE FLUID WAS SO CLEAN IT LOOKED NEW BUT THE PAN HADN’T BEEN OFF!
LEARNING TODAY
THE CHILD COMES HOME FROM HIS FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL. MOTHER ASKS, "WHAT DID YOU LEARN TODAY?"
THE KID REPLIES, "NOT ENOUGH. I HAVE TO GO BACK TOMORROW."
AN EASY ENOUGH MISTAKE
A MAN AND A WOMAN WERE HAVING DINNER IN A FINE RESTAURANT. THEIR WAITRESS, TAKING ANOTHER ORDER AT A TABLE A FEW PACES AWAY NOTICED THAT THE MAN WAS SLOWLY SLIDING DOWN HIS CHAIR AND UNDER THE TABLE, WITH THE WOMAN ACTING UNCONCERNED.
THE WAITRESS WATCHED AS THE MAN SLID ALL THE WAY DOWN HIS CHAIR AND OUT OF SIGHT UNDER THE TABLE. STILL, THE WOMAN DINING ACROSS FROM HIM APPEARED CALM AND UNRUFFLED, APPARENTLY UNAWARE THAT HER DINING COMPANION HAD DISAPPEARED.
AFTER THE WAITRESS FINISHED TAKING THE ORDER, SHE CAME OVER TO THE TABLE AND SAID TO THE WOMAN, "PARDON ME, MA'AM, BUT I THINK YOUR HUSBAND JUST SLID UNDER THE TABLE."
THE WOMAN CALMLY LOOKED UP AT HER AND REPLIED FIRMLY, "NO HE DIDN'T. HE JUST WALKED IN THE DOOR."
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE.
