Hot, dusty and a close call.

I know, at 85 we would all be out working in the "cool weather".. Was 107 at work monday..

Speaking of putting water in a Radiator, my wife commented on the Cialis commercial where the middle aged "experienced guy" stops at a convenience store and buys a 1.5 liter bottle of ice cold water from the chiller, and pours it in his overheated steaming 69 Camaro.. She said "won't that ruin the engine?" I said yeah that is pretty stupid. I thought that was pretty good for a girl.

James, you have a very well informed wife! I'm willing to bet most advertising execs don't even know where to fill the radiator. Reminds me of the time my wife stopped at a small, family owned convenience store to fill her gas tank. The attendant (the owner's wife, I believe) was proudly giving the full service by filling the tank, checking the oil and checking all the fluids, all the time telling my wife what an empowering feeling it was to know how to do all these things herself. My wife got home from wherever she was going and told me she could barely see through the windshield, as the washer fluid just smeared it up and made things worse. A quick examination showed that the "empowered" attendant had poured radiator fluid in the windshield washer tank!:duh:

Talk about a mess to clean up!:yuck:

Thats more than pretty good for a girl
I was in Joplin last week and I think it was thursday evening the sign on the bank said 73.
It made up for it on friday and saturday but at least the humidity was low.
