Face it, the Mopars were always a little off center... The pentastar logo on only one fender, the radio with both knobs on one side, the r/h l/h threads on lug bolts, the ballast resistor... just a few oddities off the top of my head, and I am sure you guys know of some more things... So I guess it just stands to reason...

 

I think we may be the only truely sane people on earth. Remember that cult that love's mustangs? Ever see a Prius owner?

It's perfectly normal to dress up in my mom's clothes when people call me Andrea so often.

 

Thinking we are truely sane is proof in itself. Is there a Prius cult? How cool is that!

Got any pics??

 

Just about have the tub ready for the fish... been having a little trouble keeping track of how many cups of water I have put in the tub... keep having to start over.

Also 1600 - 1800 = -200... I am a little confused on the negative quatity of salt... Please advise...

 

If you want to save time and anguish, just leave out the salt, dump in a little dirt and add Piranha's. They are great to watch, especially if you have friends and neighbors that insist on putting their fingers in the water to see if they will bite!

 

As time gets closer the days seem to get longer... today may have been one of the longest days of my life.

Ok, so heres the deal... I finally got the tub ready. You would not believe how many cups of water I had to measure out in there. 2,159 to be precise! From there I was unable to remember what Andre said for salt, and honestly, I think he was shooting from the hip so I basically rounded up all the salt in the house and dumped it in. Knowing I would take forever to try to stir the salt into a nice homogenous mix I pulled out the ½” drill and a mud mixing paddle. Be careful if you try this at home… water and salt will fly… everywhere, not to mention contacting the porcelain with the paddle tends to beat the tar out of the tub! Nothing about 20 bottles of porcelain repair paint wont fix I guess…
Next it was off to Seattle… Pike Place Market to be exact. They have the coolest fish market there… if youve never been there you need to check it out. Sad thing is though there wasnt a Red or Shark anything there. After much debate and fear of not following directions to the letter I chose the Whole Wild Alaskan Troll King Salmon… mainly because the name made for a fond reminder of members of this forum…
At 17.99 a lb this better be worth it. A 22 lb fish netted me $431.52 out the door. Basically a Challenger payment… good thing shipment of Challengers was delayed or I may not have had the cash to make this happen! As I paid I noticed the guy wrapping it in paper so I asked him if it would be OK that way on my way home. He said as long as I headed home straight away everything would be great… so I sped home as fast as the neon would take me… 118 mph! A first for me and the neon. Good thing I didnt even think about what would happen if I got a flat or something!!
So I get home and something doesnt seem right with Bob… oh yeah, I named him Bob… pretty clever huh? I unwrap him and set him free in the tub and he just seems to be kind of floating on his side. Figured maybe he just had to get acclimated to his new home so I jump back on the board to spend some quality time tracking the Challenger. Man time flys when your having fun… I remember hearing the door open… the “Hi honey, its me, Im home” and then… all hell broke loose!

“EEEWWW… what in the sam **** is that smell”… oops… guess I sorta forgot about Bob…all I can say is when she went in the bathroom she was NOT happy. She started quizzing me and making me feel inadequate and all and asked me what the point of all this was… I had no good answer. So… Andre… just what IS the point to this? I trusted you that this was somehow going to help… and??


Oh great… sounds like she just found out we are out of salt… she sounds pissed… gotta go… later…

 

I think the answer to your problem lies South of you. You have alot of time and I have alot of chores. You can start in backyard and make your way to the front.

 

Sorry... that is not the problem... all my time is taken. Do you have any idea how long it took me just to post that with the forum misbehaving like it is and having to retype that over and over. You must remember... I am not a typist... I am a thinking man... trying to forget something... as I recall... [sm=sigh.gif]

 

Mopar2ya,
I have consulted everyone I can think of and STILL no simple answer has made you happy! This is not all my fault you know! Testers made the stuff!

Perhaps I should draw on the wisdom of my dear departed grandfather. One night when I was 5 or 6 I was feeling really down. My father was not home and all I had was my grand parents to talk to. Old men are wise, make no mistake. I just think he had other things on his mind.

He sat in front of the TV (black and white) and acted as if he pondered all the problems I laid out with great care. When I was done he we sat in silence… must have been 10 minutes… I was dying to hear what he had to say. And then he spoke. He said “Billy”, because my middle name is William… “Billy” he said “Yes grandfather” I replied. Then he stood up and said “I think I’ll go upstairs and f—k your grandma”

Feel better?

 

Yes... Thank You Andrea... err I mean Andre. That was a very nice story. Think I will go do some glueful soul searching and figure out what to do with Bob in the morning.
You can always count on childhood memories to bring you back to a place where you dreaded the thought of waking in the morning... Peace Bro...

PS... was there any point to the fish thing... or is the brain just a bit crispy around the edges?
