    Default Used Car

    SWMBO had just bought a five-year-old car. The first time I drove
    it, I told her something seemed to be wrong with the suspension.

    I parked the car and then proceeded to give it a "shock test." I
    clasped one hand over the other, squared my shoulders, pushed down
    with all my weight on one corner and quickly released it to see if it
    bounced more than once. I repeated this several times.

    A pedestrian standing behind me observed, "I doubt that even CPR
    could start that car."
    Androgens Order
    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.

    It's taken me a few days to think of a response to this.
    All I can say is ...SHOCKING !!

    You say life has its ups and downs
    The person who never made a mistake never made anything

    Very absorbing, should bounce it round for a while.
    I tried to be normal once.
    Worst 2 minutes of my life.
