You can't think of everything. 8^)

It's a low rider, so you can drag your feet and keep your balance.

I know where you can get insurance for anything.

My step-son, who lives in Hollywood, gets his uncle's hand-me-down MBs
when the old codger decides that he's done-with-that-one. The step-son has
a thing-a-ma-jig that he has to breathe into before attempting to start
the engine. 43 years old, still single and drunk most of the time. The
other day there was a high-low-speed chase on the 101 in Hollywood covered
by Fox News (dunno why). It was a black MB with an open moon roof and the
first thing I thought of was that it was Michael on one of his drunken
binges again.

I'll say! Speaking of trust reminds me. On the 14th, we're going down to
SA to a Grand Opening of the newly remodeled Bensen Chevrolet dealership.

I expect to meet Tom Bensen while we're there...or else he'll be a no-show
and we can enjoy the evening.
