      RW> LOL! I do that with my CNC mill programming. The controller is so stupid,       RW> that it CRS and I have to continually re-edit it to make it work       RW> properly.              Got to hate when machines have a mind of their own. :)              RW> That was a mistake. You know that what you buy isn't going to fit in that       RW> car. Kinda like my 3rd gen Camaro; the new roll-away I needed at a job       RW> site didn't fit unless I left the lid open. When I quit that job, I had       RW> my       RW> SIL pick it up and bring it home for me in his pickup.              I really didn't think they would have any generators left. I was very lucky,       since they rolled about 12 of them on a pallet to the front of the store -       just as I walked in the door. Very lucky, to say the least. All 12 of them       sold in about 20 minutes. I had to run to get a flat-bed before they were       gone.              RW> That reminds me of the Buick Engine I carried home in the trunk of my 52       RW> Chevy. The damned car was so low under the weight of that engine that it       RW> scrapped bottom going over a set of RR tracks. That punctured a hole in       RW> the gas tank, which I plugged up with a wad of chewing gum.              Never done a repair with chewing gum, but have used the epoxy compound to stop       some leaks in the past. :)               RW> It's great that you wife has that ability. Most women don't. OTH, I ran       RW> into a 40+yo woman here in Texas who had a traffic accident and repaired       RW> the damage herself. She R&Rd the whole front end of her car, painted it       RW> and with the exception of the still missing bow-tie, it looked as good as       RW> before.              True. My wife is better on the design aspects that I am. She is also good at       building things. I'm more on the electrical and painting side of things. My       engineering is more technical vs. design.              - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.50         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)    |
