We got home from town about thirty minutes ago and when I saw what "Abby" the Hoarder had done, I thought for sure she was on a fast track to Hell !!! Abby had pulled Cindy's Bible off the kitchen tabled and gnawed the corer of it. Cindy came to Abby's rescue and said we had to forgive Abby as that is what the Bible says. Lucky Dog !!! I've switched my carry to this 4-Dot Capped Jack.

It also says something about the rod of correction. Haha!

Your wife sounds like a wonderful lady, Ed. You made the right choice. :)

Company car? Could always be worse.
Like say, your wife's car.

Last week, on I-90, some jackwagon's tire let loose of a rock. She says she heard the whack, but didn't see where it had hit.
I drove it early yesterday morning. Single digit f. temp, and the combination of the hot defroster, and the cold glass...

"Hey Honey, was there a crack on your windshield?"

in the early stages of working on a bush road roughly a week after a d-9 with a cutter blade followed by 2 with rakes had just passed, this was followed by a d-6 pulling 2 railway ties with fencing in between to pack sno and pick up loose branches,so the road was still rough, anyway my partner was driving the mechanics truck in front me when I heard him on the radio saying he heard a big clunk and thought he hit something, while he is putting this on the radio I'm dodging his right rear tire that was bouncing straight at me while he kept on driving,that's when you know your on a rough road.

I really dislike when that happens.
A (now late from a heart attack or stroke, about 6 years after he retired from the Navy, after serving 25 years.) mechanic friend was test driving my mum's 19&73 Dodge 1/2 tonne pickup, after a tune up, auto trans fluid & filter change, rear axle lube change, and axle pinion seal replacement.
Somehow he missed the right rear had four busted lug nuts. (I told him when I worked at his shop he should always pop the hubcaps and check the lug nuts when a car/pickup/van/SUV came into the shoppe. 🙄) The 5th decided to retire when he was doing 60 mph. The wheel and tyre passed him, and went "splash" in the river he was about to cross on the bridge. 😳
He bought a used rim, brake drum, new rear brakes (and brake hardware), a used backing plate, and a new matching 6 ply 7.00x15 tyre for her pickup, since he felt responsible.
He said it was "only" a five mile walk back to the shoppe to get his tow truck. (He did not charge mum for the tow, either.)
The original wheel, tyre, and hubcap are still somewhere on the river bottom.
