    You're fine.
    Most of us have sisters, wives, and ex-wives. So, we're familiar with the tone. No big deal,

    Groceries the other day we’re $350. That’s with $75 worth of meat Counting the Turkey. I remember as a kid during high inflation. $70 was the weekly norm for 1 full cart, fed 6 of Us. Nothing fancy, My job was to help my Grandma find bargains. I always compared prices. At 8 yrs old, it was fun. Soon $70 became $100. Roughly summer 1975. Today I can’t help but wonder how much an average family of 4 spends. Must be at least $400 a week.

    When I got back from my last delivery I was immediately asked...again, if I wanted to go to Berlin, CT. Uh, no. Now I see that the load is still unassigned. Maybe an incentive is in order. Regardless, I've been punished and I'm now preparing myself for an assault on Atlanta.

    I called the Newport PD and asked for info. Nothing. Maybe Judge never really existed and it was all a pigment of our imagination.

    That’s right. Women have to be tough. Not intimidated. We taught our daughter not to take any crap from anyone. She doesn’t. My wife’s the type that’ll pull Me aside into a corner if I’m out of line and slap me up quick. Lol. Seriously being assertive and upfront is always a good thing. Better if what you see is what you get. Intimidated Men who feel threatened call it being b####y

    Should is the key word there.

    It all depends on how important serviceability was to the manufacturer.

    Had a '78 Ford Fairmont (problem was consistent across the fox car chassis line). Book hours to change the heater core was in the 8 hour range. When I did mine it was a half day in and a half day back out. Had to basically pull the entire dash fascia out to get the covers off the core box.

    Don't know if they cause such effect but I bet her vision has improved drastically. Probably can get in 100 yards of an intersection and see what's coming from both ways, a mile distant each way, simultaneously. :):)
