I took Friday off and dropped the van of for some work - four new shocks, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, transmission flush and fluid change and some other stuff... About $1,200 worth of work.

While they were working on the van I rode around in the rain all day, eventually got home, dried off and changed, and eventually Hilarie dropped me off at the dealership. She drives off, I go in and...

No wallet.

So I groveled a little and they gave me the truck and I'll go in and pay them Monday - there are benefits to living in the same area for more than thirty years and not behaving too stupidly.

I'm guessing there's some "old-man-moral" in there somewhere?

Yep, he threatened to smack them over their head with his cane if the didn't trust him.



I hope you got the senior citizen discount?

Yeah - it's funny in a smallish town like I live. I can't start to name the places I could go to do things like this.

We'll see when the time comes that I can get past my pride and try that one... Anyway, you punks all need that money to pay for my retirement!

Like the Nissan dealership, I hear you get respected over there.

LOL! It wouldn't be a problem in the town I grew up in either. Small town charms I guess!

There is an automotive glass shop here in town that has a big sign near the street. Last week it said "Bob Davis Please pay your bill". I laughed out loud and thought "only in a small town".

I'm guessing it's cheaper than sending someone to collections.
