Today Was A Weird Day!
Don't really know how else to put it!  I was working this morning and Al tells me at 9 AM he is going to a doctor's appointment and then Joey tells me he is going to a doctor's appointment at 10 AM.  Then my wife calls me to tell me that something is really wrong with the car!  I start dreading what she is going to say and she says that she ran over something on the interstate and that stuff was leaking out and the car died!  I instantly thought oil base pan since that is the lowest spot on most cars!  I tell joey that I have to leave and head out to find her.  I am nothing if not prepared so I call Bob and get the tow company phone number just in case and program it into my phone.  I get there, look under the car and see that the guy who stopped was right- she broke three fuel lines by the tank.  Well, I am not Superman so I called the tow company and had them tow it to my work.  The rest of the day was busy!  I finally got a chance to work on it at 545 and I thought I had all the parts I needed to fix it.  Well, one of the lines was bigger than the other two so the parts I got wouldn't work so I did two of them and came home for the night and I will get another one of the right part and have it fixed in like five minutes tomorrow.  Could have been worse I guess!  A base pan would have been $4-500 new and the worse part of what did break will be the tow- which is usually $35.  I also had it confirmed that Bill is coming back to work at Hartt and I can start having two days off again right before hunting season!  That works!  Well, off to browse some site then go to bed!  Later
