htl, Just put it into top gear, plant the foot

past her... louder than she can scream at you 
.. With the donks you've built
,that should be a no brainner...
And after the event,
You can kiss and make up later
, or even try a little bribery

Ducky Ducky Ducky if you knew my wife--- The stories you tell about yours are tame, need I say more. [Not really but it sounded good when I first typed it]
Happy wife is a happy life and would like to keep it that way!!!

and a foolish life is
when after all that you find a new wife
and start the cycle again!

Just kidding

I keep telling Ducky [cause that's his real name] that I don't at least hardly ever do mirrors and wind shield wipers and the like [tracks] cause down the road they will get broke off by my wife dusting and once that happens they [the model] seem to just disappear so no parts that will brake off.
And for a second reason after a while in the build I reach a point near the end where my mind just quits and says it's done, clean it up and add it to the shelf, I've found something else I'm more interested in figuring out.
And when we moved recently I gave away some of my builds.
